Comics You Should Be Reading

I’ll level with you. There are a lot of comics on the shelves and no one can be bothered to read them all, but in the never ending maelstrom of the publishing schedule certain gems tend to get overlooked. These books are some of the best things being published right now. Go get them. Don’t [...]

Casual Readers Pull List (8/18)

Comic book day is just around the corner. You want to start reading comic books so you can keep up with your comic book loving friends conversations, but you just don’t know where to start! That’s where I come in. A while back, I decided to create this series that will feature a list of [...]

Lars Brown’s North World

Trudging along the alley ways of the cluster-full geek celebration that is called San Diego Comic-Con about a year ago, I stumbled upon the Oni Press booth. I was probably mostly there to stalk… ahem… check if Brian Lee O’Malley was there signing stuff. Too nervous to stand in line, I hung out and struck [...]

The Casual Readers Pull List (8/4)

Greetings booty snatchers and poo flingers! It’s Tuesday, and we all know what that means… the week isn’t even halfway over yet!

DC Universe Epic Epic and MORE EPIC!

The Casual Readers Pull List (7/28)

Good morrow my comic-loving friends! It’s Tuesday and that means it’s just one more day until NEW COMIC BOOK DAY! Sadly, as it seems many of the publishers were busy working on their assorted big news releases for SDCC, our list of books being released this week has suffered. Still, I have waded through the second [...]

Bargain Bin Showdown 04

Welcome back to another exciting episode of Bargain Bin Showdown! Every week, I scour the bins filled with comic books from ages past and bring them home to share with everyone else! (Let us pretend the gap that I’m not addressing never really happened. Yes, excellent.) This week, I found an issue of Artbabe by Jessica [...]

The Casual Readers Pull List (7/21)

With SDCC just days away, there is plenty of comic book goodness going on this week. The best thing about conventions (even if [...]

Top Cow Unleashes Artifacts

I’m a sufferer of event fatigue. With some of the big name companies pumping out event series and spin-offs every year like rabbits popping out litters of kits, it is hard not to get jaded with the near-constant barrage. When I heard that Top Cow was entering this market with their own event series, it [...]

The X-Files and 30 Days of Night: The Book is Out There!

I can be a bit snobbish at times when it comes to comic books. That is to say that sometimes just a certain word associated with a title or series will immediately make me think about skipping over it. Words like “crossover” or credits tagged with “from the band…” tend to turn my stomach, more [...]

The Casual Readers Pull List (7/14)

It has come to my attention that several of you are not as obsessed with comic books as I am. So it is with that in mind that I have created this series, for the casual reader, if you will. There are plenty of websites out there that will give you list after list of [...]
