I still love thoughtballoons, I do. I want to write for that site for the next decade, or two, but I have realised my output of late hasn’t been great. I’ve known that but sometimes there’s not much you can do. Either the muse doesn’t kiss you on the ding-dong or you’re just pressed for [...]

Seems you can’t click a link these days without hearing my voice streaming at you. And that’s just how I like it. One of my favourite people on the www, Andrenn, from the Comic Book Revolution, is a guy I love to talk horror with. He’s usually wrong and I’m always right but it’s always [...]

For more truth, hit the link below: Scalped #53 review on CBR by Ryan K Lindsay I gave it 4.5 stars because, “Aaron weaves together a series of short scenes, and [...]

I did not read Spider-Island. But I read this tie in mini and I dug on it hard. This, the final issue, wasn’t as strong as the intro issue, but it was still damn good and the tale in its entirety is most certainly worth checking out. To believe my words more, check the link [...]

I can’t remember who linked to the page but I saved it in my iPad and came back to it later. It was a contest at SF Signal to win a three issue subscription to the ODD Anthology, and the major prize was to get your story into the pages of this esteemed publication. All [...]

This book just makes me smile that it even exists. It’s like someone took all the things I love and collected them all in one convenient place. I love it. This issue keeps the quality alive and if you haven’t sampled any Robert E Howard work before then this is your place to start. Hit [...]

I liked the first issue of Batman from Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo. It was very good. I would not have called it perfect by any stretch but it was still one of the best DCnU titles to drop last month. This issue, however, shows a massive spike in quality. Batman just went from very [...]

There’s going to be an Australian comic anthology published next year and I’m super excited about it. Here’s the low down: The ACT Comic Meet Up is a group of comic-minded people who meet at a pub on the first Sunday of every month. These people discuss comics, and other nerdery. Some of them draw [...]

I really didn’t expect this comic to be this much fun. Lemire and Ponticelli are bringing some solid sci-fi insanity to this title and it’s nice to see someone swinging hard within the 20 pages allotted per month. This comic is not playing it safe. Hit the link below to read: Frankenstein: Agent of S.H.A.D.E [...]

This is such a gorgeous comic. I’m starting to wish all comics were gonzo pulp fare drawn by Jerome Opena. If only. The Dark Angel Saga is also living up to the saga in the title – it just keeps going and so much keeps happening. It’s like The Dark Tower for X-continuity, ha. Hit [...]
