Comics I’m Buying This Week 08/18/2010

18 August 2010

Amazing Spider-Man #640 – I was prematurely set to hate this story with a burning fanboy rage, but last issue threw me for a loop. Atlas #4 – Sad that this series is ending after #5. But the remaining two issues should be a hell of a ride, and I’m kind of looking forward to [...]

Comics I’m Buying This Week

4 August 2010

Because the other posts I have in my brain are about Jersey Shore or Count Dooku. Amazing Spider-Man #639 – Continuing the retelling of Spider-Man’s wedding in the most cludgy and awful way possible. Yes, it’s nice that you gave Mary Jane a cell phone, but name-dropping Princess Di with the insinuation that she is [...]

Five Thoughts On Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World

29 July 2010

1. For a movie that is about a guy fighting and killing hipsters, there were certainly a lot of hipsters packed into the theater. 2. Kieran Culkin as Wallace completely steals the movie. 3. It is remarkably faithful to the source material. Even in the third act, when significant changes are made for understandable reasons,  [...]

The 2008 Baltimore Comic-Con Kingdom Comics Panel

22 July 2010

This is an article I wrote for Newsarama. They never ran the article, I assume because of how completely vapid this particular panel was.  Or because I omitted the ten minute rant that Ahmet Zappa went on about Thumbelina, the smallest horse in the world. “Kingdom Comics is about sucking the cute out of everything.” [...]

14 July 2010

I may have skipped last week because I didn’t get into Comics on the Green until Saturday, but CIBTW is back! AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #637 – As much as I like Spidey from issue to issue anyway, there’s maybe one storyline a year that feels big and satisfying. Last year’s was New Ways To Die and [...]

Comics I’m Buying this Week

30 June 2010

Action Comics #890 – While I’m definitely not down for Joe Straczynski’s year-long story about Superman walking across the country to stop feeling sad, I do like Paul Cornell and I think that his Lex Luthor-centric run on Action will be lots of devilish fun. The preview that ran in last week’s books certainly indicates [...]

Developments

30 June 2010

Earlier this month, I posted a tease of a comic story that I did with Joe Mulvey.  Today, the entirety of that four page story is unleashed on the world in the newest issue of Alert Nerd’s semiregular magazine, Grok. You can read it here. I have it on good authority that there is a [...]

Scott Pilgrim Jeff Is Shockingly Accurate

29 June 2010

If only I could be paunchier, this would be a perfect representation of me. I applaud the creators of the Scott Pilgrim avatar creator for giving me the ‘blazer, tie and jeans’ option that Xbox Live has denied me for so, so long. In the interest of full disclosure, the taglines are randomly generated and, [...]
