This interview will be at the top until Friday! Scroll down for the latest news! Okay, so New Comic Book Day is actually Thursday this week and not Wednesday. Just because Diamond and the publishers took off for the weekend doesn’t mean we did! That’s right. Paul and I? We got work ethic… In this […]
In a recent episode of Funnybooks with Aron and Paulie (listen here), I talked at length about how much I absolutely LOVED Darness/Pitt #1 from Top Cow/Image Comics. The art is spectacularly beautiful, and the story is fun and scary, with some great character moments that, even if you don’t know the characters, you’ll enjoy. […]
Pages 18 and 19 of Image Comics‘ Chew #4 contains Russian dialogue absent any translation. I had a good time trying to figure out what the characters were saying. Like “Where’d you get that hat?” or “Where can I find a wet wipe?” Chew writer/creator John Layman wrote something very different. He doesn’t even mention […]
Fan favorite zombie comic series The Walking Dead is on its way to series television. According to Variety, cable channel AMC is inches away from sealing the deal with Shawshank Redemption director Frank Darabont to bring the show to its network. Holy crap! Y’know, I think this would make a great TV series. The Walking […]

Damn yous Robert Kirkman. Damn yous to hell. I wish I could quit you! Homoerotic movie quotes aside, I have a love/hate relationship with Robert Kirkman. I’ve quit reading Invincible, Brit, Walking Dead, and Astounding Wolf-Man all at least once. Of course, now (other than Brit) I’ve managed to start repurchasing all of them on […]
UPDATE: Cyberforce/Hunter-Killer #1 is in stores TODAY! Pick it up from Heroes and Villains Comics in Hampton, VA, or at your favorite local comics shop! I’m a big fan of the Top Cow Comics universe. I’ve been following their books for a while now, and they seem to really know what they’re doing. With Ron […]
Everyone is just posting this press release without commenting on it. Are we not supposed to? If so…oops. I love Robert Kirkman – even something as mean spirited as this is just freakin’ funny, and honestly, kind of true. Almost makes me want to pick the issue up. Almost. Official Press Release Berkeley, CA – […]
If you’re lucky enough, maybe you’ll hit a comic shop that will allow you more than one free comic book this Saturday, Free Comic Book Day (probably not 100 Free Comics though, like us!). We all know that, if you only get one, it HAS to be Blackest Night #0, but if you can get […]
It’s been more than ten years since I have had a pull list at my friendly local comic shop. I travel quite a bit for work and haven’t wanted to be tied down to my FLCS for my weekly floppies. Sometimes you want to read that new issue of Thor on the road, y’know? Also […]
