That'll do pig, that'll do… Comics courtesy of Orbital Comics, London. Catwoman finds that deliriously happy spot between detailed, convincing artwork and bouncy, fluid expression None better than shown here, a party in full swing, with so man moments to pore over Even the lines of the speech balloons seem to indicate someone is diving… Wonder Woman[...]

Seven issue twos in one week from Marvel? Looks like someone's trying to get a lot of comics in before the end of the year… quarterly figures or some such I'd try to explain, but it would bore my just as much as it would bore you. But how are the Marvel NOW! comics currently on[...]

From Image Comics publisher Eric Stephenson He writes; Greetings, retail partners! As promised in the letter we sent out regarding Saga #7, I wanted take a few moments to further explain our reprint policy First off, "policy" is a terribly impersonal word, and honestly, I don't sit here and think of each decision as "policy." Like[...]

Gerry Conway just tweeted the below, linking to the Bleeding Cool story about Dan Slott receiving death threats from people over the current Amazing

The conversations I had a couple of weeks ago were of the "Shelly has been waiting for this for twenty years. If Will gets it instead, there will be

Including a swipe file from the cover of Action Comics #1. X-Men Legacy is nothing but this with Legion doing his best impersonation of a Dan Clowes drawing and he cycles through his various personalities. We get a first person perspective viewpoint of the world from Deadpool in Thunderbolts which suddenly makes the character make a lot[...]

So who have we got? A mini-Captain Britain, a mini-Namorita… A mini-vampire hunter and a mini-Slaine… And Katy Bashir, who is in no way a mashup of Kate Adie and Martin Bashir… and yes, Deathlockette or Death Locket, whichever way you want to go. So, who will be popular enough to survive and make it through to their own[...]

Remember H.E.A.T., the activist group of comic fans that threatened Ron Marz over his use of Kyle Rayner in Green Lantern over Hal Jordan? And threateneng to be revived now that the book stars Bazza The Green Lantern, with Hal reduced to some ghostly wraith bromance ith Sinestro in the background? Well, it looks like they could[...]
