Yeah … make fun of me if you want, but I think I may actually be picking this one up.
There are a lot of Marvel cartoons that I never got around to seeing, but were always curious about. Shows like Spider-Man Unlimited, Silver Surfer, the 90’s Iron Man and Fantastic Four cartoons.

So, two recent announcements have me a little concerned/happy. Well, one has me downright sad. It seems as if Scott Snyder’s AWESOME arc on Detective Comics is coming to an end after ten issues (see Newsarama). This is the first time I’d read that his run was actually limited.

There are some great all ages books out there in the […]
We’re a little late to the game on this … but any trailer where WE’RE QUOTED is certainly worth repeat viewing. In a recent episode of Funnybooks, Wayne and I talked about our love of Zenescope’s upcoming series Fly, written by friend of IoM Raven Gregory. The series, due to start this June, is definitely […]
