In this episode I compare, contrast, and review two original graphic novels from the DC & Marvel. First, Superman: Earth One (DC), followed by Fantastic Four: Season One (Marvel), then suggestions for better origin stories. Spoilers!

Batman #6 by Greg Capullo “I’m a monster!” -Buster Bluth, Arrested Development The New Avengers #21 by Mike Deodato & Rain Beredo While Mike Deodato isn’t one of those old school, legendary comic book artists, he can sure make a cover look like it stepped out from an era gone-by. To me, the coloring  really [...]

In this episode I’m joined once again by Nic Fury to watch and discuss more bad movies. In this episode we talk about Tremors, Tremors 2: Aftershocks, Tremors 3: Back To Perfection, and Tremors 4: The Legend Begins. So sit back, grab a beer or five, and get ready to laugh at some Graboid goodness! [...]

However, with the tentacles wrapped around the [...]

In this episode, I discuss the controversial graphic novel Holy Terror (Legendary Comics) by Frank Miller. It’s sad to see Frank Miller lose his sanity. Spoilers!

Buffy The Vampire Slayer: Season 9 #5 by Steve Morris Coming soon to Broadway, the Dark Horse Players present; Buffy The Vampire Slayer & The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat! All kidding aside, I would totally wear that outfit. Not only am I easily entranced by the bright happy colors, but I love the images and faces [...]
