Too Much Awesome

It seems like forever that we left off our Comic Book Club excursion into the current continuity of Marvel comics. When we last saw Cap and the gang, well Cap was dead, Iron Man was the head of S.H.I.E.L.D., Spider-Man had outted his secret identity to the public, and the X-Men were all around devastated. [...]

At this point it seems that The Avengers movie can do no wrong. Fans are ravenous to get a taste of what’s in store for Marvel movies, even wishing beyond reason that somehow Spider-Man and the X-Men show up in some way. Last time I left off with my current Marvel continuity retrospective, the massive [...]

So, where did we last leave off on our Marvel Retrospective, detailing the current continuity of Marvel’s Universe? Ah yes, all mutants were depowered, save for a select 198 that happened to include the X-Men. Things were getting crazy, but at the very least it seemed that the Marvel Universe was ready to let things [...]

When we last left off, the Avengers had just disbanded in Avengers Disassembled. It was a sad time with much tearful departures, but I’m not even near done running us through Marvel’s current continuity as far as I can take it. This is meant to help those who want a foothold into the massive continuity, [...]

Greetings my good hotman.  How’s that wait for Legend of Korra going? Not good? Well it’s nice to know that Comic Con is now only a few weeks away. Surely we will find out some more information then. But in the meantime, here is something else you might want to look into. In 2009, Nickelodeon [...]

You may not know it about me, but I’m an incredibly huge Marvel fan. Not necessarily a Marvel fanboy, but I’m getting pretty close. All of this is due to a magical comic book odyssey I took a few years back where I read over a hundred comics collections and graphics novels in preparation for [...]

I couldn’t even go one week, could I? It was only just Monday I was talking about Fables by Bill Willingham and already I’ve decided to cover Jack of Fables, the spin-off series written by Willingham and Matthew Sturges. Can a spin-off be anywhere near as good as the original? In this case, it just [...]

Wow, it’s already Christmas this week. Is it just me or do the holidays come sooner and sooner every year? Not that I’m complaining. I love this holiday. It’s so much fun to visit my extended family and make homemade greeting cards, and have an excuse to wear warm festive clothes. Oh, who am I [...]

As of this moment, one of my favorite comic book series is Fables by Bill Willingham. The concept is about as simple as it can be- Fairytales living in New York- but the execution is absolutely brilliant. Seeing as how it’s the end of the year and people will have some extra money here and [...]

I’m in a tough place here. On the one hand, I’m a huge fan of the Scott Pilgrim comic series. On the other hand, I just saw the live action version starring Michael Cera, Scott Pilgrim vs. The World, and I’m a fan of that, too. So how shall this movie review go down? Like [...]
