Locke & Key
By Michael Bramley Novelist Joe Hill’s comics debut, Locke and Key, is the very best Vertigo book of the last ten years, and it’s not even published by Vertigo. Nope, this is an IDW title that reads more like a Vertigo comic from the nostalgic days of Swamp Thing, Sandman, or Preacher. That’s not to [...]
Light and Fluffy Time!
By Shannon H Fanboys, rejoice! This week is so crazy chock-full of moe, the cute might actually kill you. So just make sure you take the proper precautions before you start reading. You have been warned. I believe I have already written an in-depth expose about why The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya is the best [...]
Silence is Golden
By Unkiedev Comic books are the perfect marriage of pictures and words…but even the best couples need to take a break from one another from time to time! There is a great tradition of comics without words, or silent comic books. Sometimes the entire series is done in this fashion, although sometimes it’s just a [...]
Watch RUBBER now!
I finally got a chance to watch Rubber last night and let me tell you… My mind was blown! It’s already my favorite film of the year… for no reason! Imagine if Charles Band directed Scanners, scripted by Jackie Kong and you might get a smidgen of an idea of the insanity that is Rubber. [...]
Dylan Dog Release Date Announced!
I recently talked a lot of yang on Dylan Dog Dead Of Night the upcoming film adaptation of the world famous Tiziano Sclavi comic. Having one of your favorite comics, TV shows, or movies being remade/adapted for a modern audience can be a very nerve-racking experience. At the same time, I also promised I will [...]
Restocked merchandise and New Marvel Releases!
By Christopher Troy Let me start this article off by saying thank you to the 4 of you who actually read these posts. I know people do, because whenever I bring up a Figma or Revoltech or something super rare on the website, it’s off the shelf a week later. Good hustle readers, an extra [...]
Krampus and the Super Moon
This is one of the more interesting titles hitting the shelves this week. From Last Gasp, Krampus the Devil of Christmas hardcover by Monte Beauchamp. Now available in Hardcover! In the early Christmas traditions of Europe, the “Krampus” was St. Nicholas’ dark servant – a hairy, horned, supernatural beast whose pointed ears and long slithering tongue [...]
Check out Wonder Woman’s wonder wear
They released pictures of Adrianne Palicki in full costume from the NBC Wonder Woman reboot, and woo boy are the kids in an uproar. And by kids, I mean John, the self-proclaimed “resident gay who works here”. “At last,” he said. “An outfit that would make Emma Frost say: Pull it back, dear, you look [...]
Matt Jones Multiverse
Fans of Wolverine, Stephen Hawking and Black Flag make sure to mark your calendar’s for Matt Jones Multiverse! Matt is a good friend of mine (and a great customer for that matter) and this is his first solo art exhibit at the Freight + Volume gallery so I want everyone to make an effort to [...]
Charlie Sheen killed by bear!
I thought I was pretty well versed in 80s horror schlock, especially films from the year 1987. So believe me when I say my mind was blown when I came across Grizzly 2: The Predator, also known as Predator: The Concert. I’m a big fan of the original Grizzly for the “it’s so bad it’s good” [...]
Daylight Savings
by Unkiedev From Superman’s weakness to Kryptonite to Cyclops’s inability to damage ruby quartz, many of our favorite comic book heroes have limits to their powers in order to make them relatable. I believe Wolverine has a peanut allergy. This past weekend I was awaken in my cave by the growls of an angry bear. [...]
Where Studio Gainax is King
By Shannon H Not too much coming out this week, but at least everything we got is a title that is worth writing home about. First and foremost, there is volume 16 of the sci-fi epic, Gantz. For those who live under a rock, Gantz is a futuristic tale about two friends who are killed [...]
Short Packed: New video game toys in stock!
by Christopher Troy Sorry for the later article everyone, but I came back from PAX East in Boston late this past Sunday night, and I still haven’t had time to recover, what with work and the new Marvel vs. Capcom 3 DLC dropping. For the 3 of you that care, the show was massive, with [...]
Power Core Combiners Grimstone Review
By Loran Everybody loves the Dinobots! They’re probably one of the most endearing sub-teams in Transformers lore, to the point where they even got not one but TWO sublines devoted just to them. That’s impressive. The team leader Grimlock was a huge player in the Marvel comics, even taking the reins from Optimus on several [...]
