Jake’s Manga March For The Month Of March!

In the early to mid-2000s after the 90s craze of Batman, X-Men, and Spider-Man animated series my adolescent brain made the switch, and probably mostly due to my television viewing schedule, and I started watching anime. I started with the same series that introduced most people my age into the genre; Dragon ball and then … Read more

OH, THE HUMANITY! By Earl Geier

That saying did not originate lightheartedly: It was the horrified reaction of the reporter covering the routine landing of the zeppelin Hindenburg, which burst into flames and was destroyed.

My Top 5 Pulp Characters In Comics by John Elle

 CHILLING ADVENTURES PRESENTS BETTY THE FINAL GIRL #1  This one definately peaked my curiosity. Some of the horror titles from Archie Comics have done a very good job of being both Archie and scary. And while I am not the biggest fan of the realistic art and Riverdale TV series designs, they do have the … Read more

Putting The Super Back Into Superman By JC

Superman is Super Boring… So now that I have your attention and many of you hate me… Superman has always felt a bit overpowered to me, but simultaneously he is constantly holding back. He could easily beat 90% (maybe more) of the heroes/villains in the DC universe, yet any fight always seems underwhelming. More people … Read more

AVENGERS #8     MARVEL COMICS You know what one of the best parts of new comic movies and tv shows being announced? It is almost a guarentee that there will be some best of comic or facsimile edition of the new hot character. Which is why I get to be transported to July 9th, 1964 … Read more

Super Heroes in Love! by Nick L

Super heroes, they’re just like us, falling in and out of love all the time. With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, I wanted to celebrate some covers that have that touch of romance, or at the very least, some kissing on the cover. Harley Quinn Valentines Day Special #1 Variant The regular cover for … Read more
