Do you guys remember The Black Scorpion? Back in 1995, Roger Corman had a series of Showtime movies, known as Roger Corman Presents, a series of sci-fi/horror/comic book movies aimed at, essentially, horny teens. My favorite (being a horny teen) was The Black Scorpion, starring Joan Severance (yowza!) as “Darcy Walker, a police detective whose […]
As a kid, I was a big fan of the character of Casper, The Friendly Ghost. I loved the Harvey Comics starring the character, and used to enjoy the cartoons as well. It wasn’t until I was older that it occurred to me that Casper could be the ghost of a dead kid. I figured […]
I don’t even know how to contain my excitement right now. One of my all time FAVORITE comic book titles, Jeff Smith’s Bone, is going to continue in even more adventures! In summer 2010, Scholastic will publish Bone: Tall Tales, written by Jeff Smith and Tom Sniegoski, and illustrated by Jeff Smith. I’d imagine this […]
We here at IoM love Zenescope Comics. And now, we’ve got some kick@$$ news from them about some of the new titles they’re premiering at this year’s San Diego Comic Con … check it below! Zenescope announces Comic-Con International Plans Zenescope announced today it will debut a preview issue flip-book for two upcoming sci-fi titles […]
I hate to use a cliche, but some ideas really do kind of fit together like chocolate and peanut butter, don’t they? Pinocchio and Vampires seems like something that should have been brought up years ago. But then again, if it had, we might not have had the awesome upcoming graphic novel Pinocchio: Vampire Slayer […]
Everything old is new again, lately. Star Trek is hotter now than it’s been since the original series first leapt to movie screens. We’re getting remakes/reboots of Cliffhanger, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Nightmare on Elm Street, and…well, just about every damn movie we saw between 1970-1990. Still, some franchises, despite languishing for years without new […]
Yeah…I know. I’m kicking myself for not coming up with it myself too. It’s just so perfect of an idea, isn’t it? Coming this fall from SLG is Pinocchio: Vampire Slayer, quite possibly one of the coolest ideas of ALL TIME! What’s it about? After seeing Geppetto die at the hands of vampires, Pinocchio swears […]
I wasn’t sure what to make of Unbeatable by looking at the cover. We see lead character Heimen Dale, shirtless and in a pair of jeans, looking at a plethora of history’s greatest fighters, set to d battle with him. Okay, so we’re set for a rollicking time travel adventure? Some type of virtual reality […]
As a preview of our upcoming review of Matthias Wolf’s graphic novel Unbeatable (here’s a sneak: it’s damn fantastic), courtesy of CBR, we have a look at the trailer for the book, which is pretty sweet. Have I told you before how much I love trailers for comics? Especially when they’re as well done as […]
I think the biggest mystery for me about the upcoming movie Whiteout isn’t who committed the first murder in Antarctica, it’s why the hell they would cast Kate Beckinsale in a movie that takes place in temperatures that require you wear a frickin’ bear skin rug at all times. Shouldn’t they have maybe cast her […]
