Well, I’ve worked my way through my introduction back into comics. What’s next? First of all, I want to get more in depth with my reviews. It’s safe to say you may see spoiler warnings from time to time. But, with that in mind, here’s a few different ideas I have: Character Spotlight: I want […]
New Mutants #1-3 This is a great book for new readers and old fans alike. The title begins right with the Return of Legion storyline. This story (at least the first 3 parts, I’ve read) gives new readers a great, fresh story, while old readers of the first New Mutants are given a rare amount […]
The Mighty Avengers #27 This is one of the few books, I picked up that was beginning a storyline. This Avengers title is unique, in that it does not tie in with the Dark Reign event going on in Marvel. I claim to not be into cosmic level heroes or villains, but in a book […]
X-Factor #45-46 If you’re only reading one X-Title, this should NOT be it. This book is crap, man. Seriously, it’s a bit steaming. The characters are a flat and uninteresting motley crew of F-list characters. You stick Aron Head in this book with no powers, and it’s more interesting. Luke Meyer would have too much […]
Amazing Spider-Man #602 This book is just so-so. Not bad or good…it just….was. Fans of the Chameleon will enjoy this issue. I didn’t. A couple things I noticed though, in regards to the Spider-Man series in general. The first is that in this issue I found out that J. Jonah Jameson is the mayor of […]
Exiles #5 Here’s an idea, take some random mutants (and Black Panther for some reason), from alternate timelines, put them together…and have them roam through even more alternate timelines! If your first thought is, “That sounds pretty sucky.”, do not be alarmed. It only indicates that you are still sane. I’m a fan of Blink. […]
Aron’s at GenCon this week! If you wanna chat about comics, send him a note on Twitter. Greeting cards (1:45) The Barnes & Noble bargain bins (3:41) Christmas in August (6:32) Justice League: Cry for Justice #2 (13:00) Captain America: Reborn #2 (19:47) Chew #1-3 (27:35) Mayhem #1 (oops…Paul meant BloodSTRIKE, not Bloodshot) (38:20) War […]
If you’ve listened to this week’s episode of Funnybooks with Aron and Paulie, you’d know that Aron is pretty excited about an upcoming Marvel animated project featuring George Takei as the voice of Galactus. In the podcast, I theorized that it was probably Marvels upcoming kid-friendly Superhero Squad Show cartoon and, well, I was right. […]
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 […]
ARON: Hey, I read your Skulduggery Pleasant thing yesterday. You know, my parents always said that had I been born a girl, they’d have named me Valkyrie Cain. Weird, huh? PAUL: Wow… really? ARON: No, not really. Actually, had I been born a girl, the ‘rents planned on naming me Tiffany Paige. Can you […]
