DANGER STREET #5 DC COMICS While my love of this title is well known, I am always amazed by what twists and turns Tom King and Jorge Fornes come up with. And yes, we will be needing to send out a ***SPOILERS ALERT*** for this review just because there is no way around it. … Read more The Money In Comics By Mike W.
Well I did have a few ideas for this entry but I am a week too late for Easter. My first idea was best resurrections in comics but my employees warned me that was quite a minefield to dance in.

FLASH #796 DC COMICS And in the final chapter of the One-Minute War storyline, not only is Jeremy Adams able to wrap everything up but actually makes sense of it all. From the onset, I haven’t been a big fan of this story. And with the cliffhanger at the end of the last issue, … Read more C2E2 Weekend is here!

STARGIRL THE LOST CHILDREN #5 DC COMICS Let me first point off just how brilliantly Todd Nauck’s art captures the spirit of this series.

And I am so glad that I was … Read more Music and Nerdiness Blend in a Wonderful Mixture That Shapes Local California Band By Daniel Seib

By Luke Simkins
A picture is worth a thousand words. But sometimes a picture just isn’t enough. Comics are a medium that thrive on lore, the deeper story behind the story. Some lore is built off of years and years of previous stories, like how everyone knows Uncle Ben is dead and Superman’s planet exploded.

JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA #3 DC COMICS The Huntress’s trip bouncing through space and time have ended in the present and a very interesting combination of JSA members including the Infinity Inc Wildcat and the Stargirl TV show Doctor Mid-Nite (I don’t care, that is the official way to spell it!). But thanks to … Read more Hey Nerds! Kids! By Shawn Spurlock
