Review: Marvel Universe Doctor Doom
By Loran I’m really starting to think I need to put more “rhythm” into my comic character collecting… I got Deadpool before any of the other X-Men, Ms. Marvel before Captain Marvel; I own Iron Patriot and no Captain America (which I need to fix), I don’t have a good Hulk figure, I own Black [...]
Costume, Partly
COSTUME CHANGE EDITION Costumes shouldn’t be changed, ever. Trust me, I know. I’ve been wearing the same feety pajamas and diaper my parents brought me home from the hospital in for over thirty years now. Sure it’s smelly, falling apart, and a mental/physical health hazard to all who approach me. That’s not the point…it’s ICONIC! [...]
Warren Ellis Fantastic Four #1
Since FF#1 came out this week I figured why not tell you about Warren Ellis’ design your own Fantastic Four #1 cover challenge.

Girls are translucent, aren’t they? It all makes me think back on the crazy days of [...]

The Hollywood Lot Tour.
In this week’s edition of the Hollywood Lot tour we have a replacement for Nicolas Cage in The Green Hornet, news on a possible Lobo star, Mark Millar, the awesome Bruce Campbell, and Julian Sands has been cast on Smallville. The brilliant Nazi traitor from Inglourious Basterds Christoph Waltz has replaced Nicolas Cage to play [...]
Let’s take a spin around the Hollywood Lot.
Some movie news, because I like that stuff, so sorry if I drown you all in it, but there have been some interesting things of note. Akiva Goldsman is rebooting Fantastic Four. Gonna be tough to reboot a property that is, well, won’t come off as a ripoff of The Incredibles. Of course, its the [...]
