The Problem with Secret Warriors
Secret Warriors wants to be a good book. Marvel wants it to be one of those books which, like the Bendis-penned Avengers titles, really 'matters' in the shared universe. Jonathan Hickman appears to want it to be a Nick Fury book.And you know what?If ...
There\'s something familiar about that guy...
Over on his blog, Joe Bloke posted the first issue of Atlas/Seaboard's The Scorpion -Does the Scorpion look familiar at all?I immediately posted on the blog that he looked a hell of a lot like Marvel's Dominic Fortune -- only to discover that Howard ...
Ladronn\'s Cable
I was using www.stashmycomics.com last night - see, www.collectorz.com, that's what you get when you won't release a mac version of your comic collecting software and I need to transfer all the info from my PC! -and I came across Ladronn's Cable run....
A Brutal Week #4 : Guardians of the Galaxy
The reason that I started this series of posts on the past week's comics was because of Guardians of the Galaxy #19. While any deaths in a comic that has been featuring time travel as heavily as this has in recent issues are obviously suspect - espec...
Fall of the Whonow?
Newsarama posted a preview of the upcoming Fall of the Hulks: Alpha earlier - - and although I'm sure this will be the equivalent of a Michael Bay movie, what with Loeb on board, I can't help but think, 'I like Michael Bay movies, they're awesome.'So...
A Brutal Week #3: Dark Reign The List Punisher
I'm never entirely comfortable when the Punisher operates in the Marvel U proper; I think he's usually diminished somewhat. After all, he can't really kill too many well known characters and he's completely outclassed when he goes after the real vill...
Who\'s the Monster?
I had a brief Twitter conversation recently about how absolutely perfect the characterization of Banner is in the current run of Incredible Hulk, but on retrospect I don't so much think it's a perfect representation of who the character has been in t...
What is it about a bow?
Oh, Karla... I always liked her. Admittedly, not so much when she was a member of the Masters of Evil, wore a dorky white helmet, tried to play Baron Zemo and then got her neck broken because she forgot not to fly head-first into a wall...but aside f...
Yeah, I\'d be sheepish too, Wolverine...
via splashpageart.com ...because Cameron Stewart's Eyepatch Kitty is pretty bad ass. Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wonderous Posterous! ...
Rafael Albuquerque\'s Alternate Justice League
via comicartcommunity.com Is it wrong that I'd rather read about Rafael's JLA more than Robinson's JLA? Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wonderous Posterous! ...
Ed Hannigan Covered
The December Marvel solicits (which are up on Super Pouvoir) includes a benefit book for Marvel cover artist Ed Hannigan (one can only assume his bwork won't be included).Hannigan designed the great Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe covers -- ...
Fine, I admit it...

Pleasantly surprised
I haven't had a chance to read everything I picked up yesterday, although I was pleasantly surprised by Justice League: Cry for Justice #3 - even if Hal, Ray, Ollie and Supergirl all came off as completely out of character, and I still think that the...
Finally, Planetary #27 is coming...
...as previewed over at The Bleed. Huh, I didn't even know Wildstorm had a blog.Anyway.It's funny, but this page -- where Drummer talks about theoretical implications of time travel, sounds like it's straight out of Robert Sawyer's excellent FlashFor...
Dance, little Pyg, dance!
Batman and Robin has been quite amusing so far. It's always fun to see a good artist try and make a coherent comic out of Grant Morrison's stories, and Frank Quitely has a good stab at it, leading to a book that's fun and readable. When Phillip Tan t...
Screw Blackest Night...
via dcu.blog.dccomics.com ...this is my most anticipated comic of the week. Although I guess Geoff Johns wins either way... Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wonderous Posterous! ...
Spider-Man's One Night Stand
So when Joe Q said all that stuff about Spider-Man being easier to relate to for kids when he's not married to a gorgeous model and everything......what he actually meant to say was that Spider-Man's easier to relate to for kids when he's having drun...
No.
via dcu.blog.dccomics.com No, no, no, no, no. I have no desire to see Superboy Prime again anytime soon, especially after his writing out at the end of Legion of 3 Worlds, which quite obviously smacked of Alan MooreGrant Morrison*'s Animal M...
Spike #1 Cover
via Brian Lynch I jumped off the Angel book following the close of After the Fall as, to be honest, I thought it was convoluted and not particularly good - but damned if I don't like this cover to the new Spike series... Posted via web ...
THE LOSERS poster
via comicbookresources.com An adaptation of Jock's cover for The Losers #12 to reflect the actor's likenesses - and it's adapted by Jock himself (you can see some process here) I have to say (1) I love the poster, and (2) I'm looking forward t...

Jim Lee's Google Art
Google's front page is graced by Jim Lee's artwork today - which means that it will be the most seen art of his career (well, probably).And it's DC-centric.I bet Marvel's kicking themselves.(Click pic to embiggen) ...
DV8 #1 Variants
The recent announcement of the return of DV8 got me all nostalgic about the original series which, unfortunately, is on the other side of the Atlantic from me right now.So instead I decided to run all the covers from the original DV8 #1 (plus I had n...
Millar & Hitch's FF - Out with a whimper
via newsarama.com I notice that the finale to Mark Millar and Bryan Hitch's much-touted Fantastic Four run is finishing up with #569 - written by Mark Millar and Joe Ahearne with pencils by Stuart Immonen and a cover by Bryan Hitch. I think that...
Dove's back...
via newsarama.com ..or her Ed Benes-enhanced front, anyway. Honestly, I like Ed Benes art for pinups - it has a pleasant, cheesecake aspect without going too overboard (I know that many will disagree) but recently I've always found his interiors to...
DV8 Returns!
via comicbookresources.com I loved DV8 back when it came out under Warren Ellis and Humberto Ramos - it was dark, funny, sadistic and a little bit ahead of its time - so this Brian Wood relaunch intrigues me. Thing is, I'm not really up to speed wi...
High Moon. Batman. Awesomeness.
via high-moon.blogspot.com If you're headed to San Diego you could spend your $35 on a lot worse things than these great prints by High Moon's Steve Ellis! Posted via web from Comic By Comic's Wonderous Posterous! ...

Joe Kelly: Spidey Vs. Deadpool
via splashpage.mtv.com Excellent news! According to MTV News, Joe Kelly's #611 of Amazing Spider-Man book will be a Spidey-Deadpool-palooza!(And Skottie Young's cover is pretty sweet!) Marvel's really pushing Deadpool these days - wonder if that...
Wednesday Comics: Convince Me
Last week I was in the store and I picked up Wednesday Comics #1.I unfolded it.I unfolded it again.I glanced through very quickly, noted the price, then folded it back up and put it back on the shelf.It's not that I don't support innovation. It's tha...
