Have you ever seen the television show Ghost Adventures, which currently airs on Travel Channel Fridays at 9PM E/P? My wife and I lovingly refer to the show as “Ghost Douchbags,” due to the three ghost hunting hosts of the show and their relative douchery. Ghost Adventures is similar to Ghost Hunters (from SyFy Channel) […]
In a stunning turn, Paul invokes the Apontalypse signalling the destruction of all we hold dear and sacred. Before the world ends, though, we talk about the week’s comics. Paul sells some books, Paul buys some books from MyComicShop.com CANCELED: Kieron Gillen’s S.W.O.R.D and Rick Remender’s Doctor VooDoo Adventure Comics #6 Blackest Night Update Green […]
Dear One Geek, Whether tabletop or LARP, certain folks I game with seem to have more fun bragging about how cool their characters are than actually gaming. They’ll drop out of character for extended lengths of time to go on and on about how awesome their stats are, what a great loophole they’ve found in […]
So, according to Variety, television station AMC has greenlit the pilot for a TV show based on Robert Kirkman’s The Walking Dead comic book. We’re huge fans of The Walking Dead here at IoM (we even got Marvel boy-Jonathan Landreth reading the book!), so of course that’s an exciting enough prospect. Couple with it the […]

We’ve shared much love on Funnybooks with Aron and Paulie for current Haunt/Invincible artist Ryan Ottley, who does pencils over layouts from Greg Capullo (and Todd McFarlane does the inks). So I have awful, awful news…. Ryan Ottley is leaving Haunt! Oh, the horror! The horrible, horrible horror! What will we do now? I mean, […]
Tom Taylor had a life that was screwed from go. His father created the Tommy Taylor fantasy series, boy-wizard novels with popularity on par with Harry Potter. The problem is Dad modeled the fictional epic so closely to Tom’s real life that fans are constantly comparing him to his counterpart, turning him into the lamest […]
If you’ll recall, I didn’t have all the swag on hand when I posted the Indy Comic Book Week Sampler give-a-way a few weeks ago. The image I posted then was but a small, yet savory, taste of the crispy Indy goodness that awaits our Grand Prize winner. Books have been arriving day-after-day. And what […]
Within five minutes of the start of The Human Target, I had already decided that I would hate it. I tell you this because I hate it when a reviewer decides he hates something before it’s really even started. Still, I couldn’t help it.
