There’s a lot of great comics series wrapping up right now. Rex Mundi, an alternate-history look at the Rennes-le-Chateau mystery that puts Dan Brown to shame. Ex Machina, where a would-be superhero, knowing that with great power comes great responsibility, uses his powers to run for public office. And now, Boneyard.

I got married almost ten years ago at the much-missed Words & Pictures Museum in downtown Northampton MA. Among the million and one things to love about the old place was the permanent gallery up on the 4th floor, where there was an amazing collection of original comic art. Frank Miller’s Dark Knight pages next […]
I’m writing this still reeling in shock from the announcement that Marvel Comics bought the rights to Marvelman. For those of you not familiar with the character, Marvelman (called “Miracleman” in the US because Marvel Comics felt their comics empire would collapse if the word “Marvel” was used to describe anything that wasn’t theirs) was a British ripoff […]
I was going to write about the non-event that was Captain America #600 (a few short stories where nothing happens, followed by a LOT of reprint material), but I’ve been thinking lately about comic stores in general.

This week marks the return of Alan Moore & Kevin O’Neill’s League of Extraordinary Gentlemen with “Century: 1910”, and once again, it made my eyes pop out of my skull with the sheer joy of figuring out who’s who from all the fictional characters of the period. This time around, we’re treated to Aleister […]
Before I get started, I want to extend a hearty “welcome back” to my friend and collaborator The Dome! Glad to see you’re up and posting again — it has been too long since our readers have been treated to your >ahem< kindly opinions on the state of science fiction. Although, with Galactica finally wrapped […]
As a diehard Dr. Who fan, I haven’t been too thrilled with the comic book spinoffs I’ve encountered. Aside from a great story by Roger Langridge a few years back (and if anyone knows where I can find a copy of it, I’d appreciate it — I only read a few pages and own the […]
One thing about being into comic books around the holidays; you know you’re going to get some pretty cool stuff. Of course, most people can’t appreciate the subtle joys of a silly-string web-shooter or The Saga of Battlestar Galactica on vinyl, but who cares? All you know is that you finally got that Emma Frost […]
