Do you remember the famous characters from Calvin and Hobbes, Little Orphan Annie, Charlie Brown and Snoopy from Peanuts? I recently got the opportunity to interview Jason Yungbluth, a cartoonist, who gave these characters a unique take in his magnum opus, the Weapon Brown graphic novel. Jason knew he wanted to be a cartoonist from fourth grade. […]
It seems things are changing for the God of Thunder in the Marvel Universe, as come October 2014 a female superhero will be holding the iconic hammer, Mjolnir. An announcement was made on the ABC talk show The View and the amazing Whoopie Goldberg got to present this new female Thor to the world. There […]
This week’s manga issue of Naruto focused on Sakura and Obito’s will to find Sasuke. I loved Sakura’s role in the issue, and hopefully Kishimoto doesn’t ignore her after this. I was surprised to see Kaguya being fooled by Naruto’s clone in the previous issue. However, it was revealed that she wasn’t fooled at all. […]
Both Marvel and DC released some good comic book issues this week. All of them had strong plotlines and good pacing. However, with Original Sins #3, I think Marvel is dragging out the story in a not so interesting tie-in series. Let’s start! Amazing X-Men #9 Review There are a lot of X-Men titles […]
This week’s issue continued Naruto’s fight with the mighty Kaguya. As far as the plot is concerned, nothing really happened until the last panel. However, seeing Naruto change his fighting style and going back to his old ways was quite a treat. Naruto managed to look trapped in ice in order to lure Kaguya so […]
Not a lot happened since issue 585 of Bleach and that’s why I haven’t reviewed them. However, this week’s issue did seem to move the plot forward a bit. Juha Bach reached the Spirit King’s realm, while our heroes stayed busy taking care of the Sternritters in Soul Society. I have to hand it to Juha. […]
DC Comics is up in your social media, taking what some regard as the most absurd trend of our modern times; the self portrait, or the “selfie” in today’s popular speak. So here we have perhaps the silliest of DC Comics themed variant covers; following “Batman 75th” in July, “Bombshell” month in June, “Batman 66” […]
For the hardcore print comic collectors out there, Marvel Comics has eight variant covers for their big summer blockbuster crossover, Original Sin. Each are magnificent on their own, featuring the brilliant art of long-time comics artist veteran, Arthur Adams. Combine them, and you have the above image. The overall story of this picture and the Original Sin storyline […]
As you know, I have a soft spot for both fan projects and female-led films. I stumbled across a Kickstarter project called Ravager by Richard Cassidy, which fits the bill in both categories. This particular project revolves around Rose Wilson (Ravager), the daughter of the infamous assassin Deathstroke. Rose has appeared in a number of […]
After separating Naruto and Sasuke, this week’s manga issue focused on the rest of the characters present on the battlefield. The issue also told us a bit about Kaguya’s powers and it served to make Sakura useful again… hopefully. It seems that with all the power from the Sage of the Six Paths, Naruto and […]
