Nothing will distract me more than dropping $1,400 on roof repairs and praying to Metron that my home owners insurance will cover the actual expense. The adjuster came out yesterday and agreed the damages were caused by wind, which is covered under my policy. Now that I know I won’t be eating the paper... »

Wizard World Chicago

Monday, August 10, 2009
By Brian M.

The first comic book conventions I went to was the one Wizard hosted in Chicago in 1998. I was there as a guest to my friend who was interning for Wizard that summer. We stayed at the Hilton near the airport. He got me a free two day pass and then I was pretty... »

Comics in the digital age

Wednesday, July 29, 2009
By Brian M.

The past ten years in the evolution for the comic book industry is a relative blank spot for me. At the time I laid off of collecting and buying in any real significant way, I remember reading Wizard, the Comic Book Resource Guide, and talking at the counter with my buddies and comic shop... »

Ed Brubaker’s Incognito

Monday, July 27, 2009
By Brian M.

I just finished issue 5 of Ed Brubaker’s and Sean Phillips’ Incognito. What a blast with its crime noir qualities and pulp sci-fi sensibility. Phillip’s art style is perfect. And the character twist at the end of issue five, wow. This title is becoming one of my favorites. Of course I know the honeymoon is... »

Favorite comic book quote of the day

Wednesday, July 22, 2009
By Brian M.

This one is from Marvel. I’ve started collecting, but not read Ed Brubaker’s mini and regular series run on Captain America. I vaguely remembered this quote and had it confirmed through a few Web browses from Frank Miller’s run on Daredevil: “I’m loyal to nothing…except the Dream.” – Captain America »

An Ode to comics (but longer than an ode)

Sunday, July 19, 2009
By Brian M.

In 1999 I quit reading comic books on a regular basis. I just graduated from college. The host of comic book friends I had were all dispersing into various directions with their new lives. My life was a mess and I was in love. My girlfriend and I were moving to Oklahoma so she... »

Marvel editor Joe Quesada just revealed the preview trailer for the “Spider-Woman” motion comic. Really like the concept and the set up. The Brian Bendis and Alex Maleev story looks fantastic. Can’t wait to consume it. Technorati Tags: Marvel, comics, Spider-Woman, Brian Michael Bendis »
