The origins of KISS comic books date almost as far back as the inception as the band itself, having been an integral part of comics culture since their 1977 appearance in Howard the Duck #12 and 1978's Marvel Comics Super Special: Kiss. Now Dynamite has become the newest publisher to create Kiss comics starting this October. The new series will be a futuristic,[...]

And, for this less-than-confident, unsure individual, his first on-panel kiss, while dancing in a club. It is worth mentioning that it takes time to publish a comic Especially something Annual sized with one story Which is why Teen Titans Annual #2 by Scott Lobdell and Cory Smith published today from DC Comics predates the recent attacks in[...]

It's been a while since I ran a "Today In Kissing" column But it's notable that all the comics I read today so far, that have featured one character kissing another, have been LGBT. We have Angela: Queen Of Hel #1 – L and T… We have Flash #45 – G. And, in Batgirl #45, we have the[...]

I was at the world premiere of Scooby Doo and Kiss: A Rock and Roll Mystery ("SDKRRM") NO SPOILERS Except that the main villain would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for those meddling kids.

Lovely. But wait, didn't we have a bunch of cliffhangers to deal with last issue? Including a certain kiss? What was up with that? For the whys and the wherefore's, you'll have to read the comic, but is Prodigy the first Marvel to self-identify as bisexual? It's not quite Northstar's "—For I am gay!!!" is it? Of[...]

And, of course, that kiss… It was just a shame that DC Comics and Marvel chose to host their parties on the same time as the awards So there was no Bob Wayne, Joe Quesada, Dan DiDio, Axel Alonso, Bob Harras, Bobbie Chase, Tom Brevoort and the like in attendance, so we had to make to[...]
