D.B. Cooper is a modern American legend. If you’ve never heard of him, you’ve at least heard of what he did. It’s been replicated in television shows and movies since 1971. That is when he hijacked an aircraft, demanded two things – $200,000 and a military grade parachute – and […]
Mars Attacks! … Popeye?
Okay, so, they don’t attack just Popeye. The crazy aliens from Mars Attacks! go after a couple of IDW’s very different properties and Popeye just happens to be one of them. Zombies vs Robots, Kiss, The Real Ghostbusters, and The Transformers round out the rest and it’s a crazy little mix […]
Happy! is the Most Demented Christmas Comic Ever
This is one messed up book. I mean, you kind of get that when you look at the cover. It’s called ‘Happy!’ but the guy is anything but happy. He’s a hulking figure of forlorn debauchery. Plus its’ written by Grant Morrison and he had some pretty grotesque stories in […]
"That's not my style…"
Haven’t heard of the Killer comic? That is your loss entirely. It’s not hard to pass this one over, though. Just believe me when I say that when it happens it’s a mistake on your part. Or, rather, ignorance on your part. The Killer is an American release of a […]
Mind MGMT is a Chaotic, Cerebral Thriller
At first, I was a little put off by Mind MGMT. It was the style, I think. It’s a very raw artwork that reminds min a lot of ways a ohigh school art student’s colored pencil drawings and the sort of sketches you see in art museums by famous artists […]

The days are scorching and the nights freezing. War brought humanity to its knees and, well, that’s not all. See, humanity is barely managing […]
An Open Letter to the DC 101 Guys
At WonderCon 2013 this past weekend, the Senior Vice President of Marketing for DC John Cunningham and writer Scott Lobdell got together for a panel called ‘DC 101.’ It was described as a different kind of comic book panel. It would cater to people who weren’t habitual comic readers and […]
Hawken: Genesis Expands on the Mythos of Hawken
Before I recieved an early copy of Archaia Entertainment’s complete graphic novel, Hawken: Genesis, I had never even heard of Hawken. Which is probably a bit sad and loses me some nerd cred because apparently Hawken is a thing that I should have known about. Forbes wrote about it! A couple of […]
Dial H for…
Any schmuck can be a superhero? That sounds nice and all but does anyone really believe it? Heck no. There’s no way that my fat ass is going to be running around saving the world from super villains. If I could I totally would. But unless we’re talking Butterball from the […]
Toyland Has Fallen Into Chaos
Every child wonders what happens to their toys when he or she leaves the room or they are all put away in the toy box. Do they come alive? Do they dream? Do they have any number of wild adventures? We encourage children to think this. In A Little […]
