Comic Book / TV Show Reviews Requests by Merin
(Sat 03/03/2007 01:25pm)
I'd like to do some regular reviews of some comics and / or tv shows that I regularly read / watch, but want to know what others would like to see more. If you have a preference, just drop a comment on what you'd like me to write about. It'll ...

Batman #663 by albrown
(Thu 02/15/2007 12:16pm)
Grant Morrison returns. No wait - that's his name, but this gibbering fanfic bullshit can't possibly be him. Whoever this jackass is who wrote this book, he think she's being all clever and mod by writing a prose story with illustrations inter...

New Excalibur #13 by albrown
(Tue 11/28/2006 09:12am)
There's a new category of supervillains these days - and it's probably Bendis's fault - whom I mentally call "Old-school dudes who exist solely to get the crap beat out of them while heroes talk about their feelings." Writers dredge these ...

Spider-Man Loves Mary Jane #12 by albrown
(Tue 11/28/2006 09:11am)
I'm still trying to figure out exactly why I love this series as much as I do. There's zero "superhero" stuff in it; it's just Mary Jane blushing and screwing up her love life over and over. And if I was just feeling nostalgic for ol...

The Immortal Iron Fist #1 by albrown
(Tue 11/28/2006 09:04am)
My deep and unabiding love for Matt Fraction and Ed Brubaker is well-established, as is my passion for kung fu characters from the 70s and green footie pajamas, so it should be no surprise that my hopes for the relaunch of the Immortal Iron Fist were sky-...

Wonder Woman #3 by albrown
(Mon 11/27/2006 12:14pm)
Not only is Wonder Woman published too infrequently to follow, it doesn't make a great deal of sense on its own merits. I'm not sure what's going on here; Allan Heinberg is usually a very competent writer (if incapable of hitting a deadline), and Te...

Punisher War Journal #1 by albrown
(Mon 11/27/2006 08:40am)
I had to look Budd Dwyer up. He was a politician who shot himself in the head on live TV in 1987. Frank's mention of a "Budd Dwyer backup," indicating that he's anticipated scenarios in which suicide would be the best option, is an i...

Hawkgirl #58 by albrown
(Sun 11/26/2006 11:11am)
I've never been a fan of Howard Chaykin - his art or his writing - so I was relieved when he got sacked from drawing Hawkgirl. His replacement Joe Bennett is capable of drawing a sequence so that you know what's happening in it, which is a nice impr...

Amazing Spider-Man #536 by albrown

Civil War: Frontline #8 by albrown
(Fri 11/24/2006 11:32am)
Like the similar series from House of M, which I don't remember the name of, Frontline has been eminently forgettable. It hints at conspiracies, at portentous happenings, at important plot points, but it won't be allowed to actually carry any of the...

Why Bother Writing A Review? by Korinthian
(Wed 11/22/2006 06:59pm)
Why bother writing a review when you can just skip past all the hassle and make a blog entry instead? Sure, you can add a nice picture to your review, and maybe it's easier to look for if someone should ever want to read it in a year. But I'd rather see m...

Girls #19 by albrown
(Mon 11/20/2006 09:16am)
Girls is the Lost of comic books: a series with an interesting premise that can't be stretched out indefinitely, slowly wearing its welcome thin by refusing to solve any of its mysteries. A year and a half into it, I'm seriously running out of patie...

Birds of Prey #100 by albrown
(Mon 11/20/2006 08:50am)
I've always liked Birds of Prey. Gail Simone is one of the best writers working these days, and when you combine her excellent stories with a chick in fishnets, you've pretty much got a comic I like. But now Black Canary has left, because the ...

Horrorfest Day 2 by gamera23
(Sat 11/18/2006 10:29pm)
Have a nice nap? Here's my report for Day 2 of the After Dark Horrorfest. In general, today's film trio was a notch above Friday's, and I've been impressed with the breadth of stylistic and thematic choices shown by these low budget projects. In contrast,...

Civil War #5 by albrown
(Fri 11/17/2006 04:22pm)
Another month, another heap of questionable decisions to stack onto the rickety tower that is Civil War. You know that game Jenga? Civil War's like that game. They keep taking pieces out of Marvel's own foundation and stacking them...

White Tiger #1 by albrown

So, the new White Tiger - the niece of the original, who was killed during Bendis's Daredevil run - gets her own limited series. All part of Marvel's plan to get more chicks into their universe, now that they've finally figured out that comics fans ...

Never ever edit a review by Korinthian
