The Saga Continues

January 3, 2015 by KM Bezner Leave a Comment

If you’re a comic book reader, I shouldn’t have to tell you that you should be reading Saga. What you might not know is that the award-winning series written by Brian K Vaughan (Y the Last Man, Runaways) and illustrated by Fiona Staples (T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents) was recently released in its 4th trade paperback volume. This is a review of it. No spoilers, I promise. Read the rest of it here.

I did it, I really really did it!

December 31, 2014 by Robyn Robotron 6 Comments

It’s a Fables encyclopedia. But, more importantly, I made it!!  I almost didn’t think I was going to.  This has been wonderful fun.  I’m definitely signing up for next year, except I’m only committing to a half Cannonball.  With a new baby on the way, and how close I came to the wire on this one, I don’t think I can make it to 52 next year.  Thanks to everyone for the interesting reviews and to MsWas for keeping this ship afloat.  I hope everyone […]

Walk this way, so I can stab you in the head.

While I like them both, I prefer the Walking Dead show to the comics.  How about you?

What’s love got to do with it?

December 22, 2014 by Robyn Robotron Leave a Comment

None of those who gave Sleeping Beauty “true love’s kiss” ever stuck around.  You think that’s because it doesn’t mean what we think it does?

An excellent continuation of the new Doctor Who comics series

November 21, 2014 by Sara Habein Leave a Comment

(This post originally appeared on Glorified Love Letters.) Talking about individual comics issues is somewhat difficult, for one does not want to spoil the story. However, let me continue to encourage you to look into the two new Doctor Who comics runs for both the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors with this brief look. (For a basic background, do check out my thoughts on the first issues for both Doctors here.) The Tenth Doctor and Gabriela are still fighting a strange creature in New York that has […]

Such outstanding first issues that I am already itching for the collected volume

November 21, 2014 by Sara Habein Leave a Comment

(This post originally appeared on Glorified Love Letters.) Lately I’ve been dipping into the world of Doctor Who comics with both the Tenth and Eleventh Doctors, but today I’ve read the brand new releases from Titan Comics:Doctor Who: The Tenth Doctor #1 and Doctor Who: The Eleventh Doctor #1, which are such outstanding first issues that I am already itching for the collected volume. The Tenth Doctor’s first issue takes place some time after he has left Donna, but before Waters of Mars. Interestingly, he […]
