Batwoman & Greg Rucka: A match made in Gotham

It’s been awhile since I’ve been excited about something happening in the Bat-books.  Right now?  I’m all giddy. In June, DC Comics and Greg Rucka bring the world Batwoman.  Originally introduced way back in the pages of DC’s weekly, 52 (y’know, DC’s good weekly?), we haven’t seen a whole lot of her since.  Now she’ll […]

X-Men Forever!

Remember how psyched you were when X-Men #1 by Chris Claremont and Jim Lee came out back in 1991 (sh*t I’m old…that was EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO!!!!), and the art and story were so fantastic?  I loved that series until Jim Lee left and, oddly, until recently, I didn’t even know that Chris Claremont left the […]
