One of the many pleasures of comic book podcasting is that you get to talk to amazingly talented people… and sometimes you get to talk to amazingly talented people who you’ve idolized for decades. Such is the case with this week’s interview. With a career in comics spanning 40 years, Jim Starlin was responsible for […]
Because no one’s making a big enough deal out of it … Yeah … Dale Keown is the artist on Artifacts #13, which releases this September, probably not-so-coincidentally the same month Witchblade #150 releases, which is Ron Marz’s last issue on the title (sad Paul).

For months now we’ve been extolling the virtues of Image Comics’ Morning Glories by one of our favorite writers, Nick Spenser, with the spectacular pencils of Joe Eisma. Morning Glory Academy is one of the most prestigious prep schools in the country… but something sinister and deadly lurks behind its walls. When six gifted, but […]
There was a whole interesting conversation on Twitter the other day (largely in part to this post on Robot 6) about what constitutes an “all ages” book, and why they typically don’t last very long, and the issues with marketing “R-Rated Superheroes” to children. There are some great all ages books out there in the […]
