This is it. The moment you’ve waited for. The last set of reviews until Phil comes back! Spider-Woman #7 Writer: Brian Michael Bendis Artist: Alex Maleev So everything finally comes to a head, it’s a very good ending to the first arc, and it’s cancelled. Gee Thanks Marvel! This was the best issue of what had been a lackluster series, but it’s surprising to see the axe this quickly. They blame it on motion comics, but shouldn’t they have known that was a problem a couple issues in? Lame. Brave and the Bold #32 Writer: J. Michael Straczynski Artist: Jesus … Continue reading →

That’s right folks. The second half of my two part epic reviews starts here! Siege #3 (of 4) Writer: Brian Michael Bendis Artist: Oliver Coipel Siege Embedded #3 (of 4) Writer: Brian Reed Artist: Chris Samnee Why do I hate Siege so much? Is it because everything feels a lot more forced than normal because Bendis has no idea how to pace? I think that’s the main reason. Also that Osborn hasn’t really done anything terrible since getting his position, and this character advancement hasn’t worked. The Sentry is still kind of lame, so I hope he dies by the … Continue reading →

Thirty one years ago tomorrow I married a wonderful woman named Marsha Greenberg. I know it sounds syrupy, but she has been the love of my adult life. Through trials and tribulations, victories and defeats, she’s always been by my side, and for that I feel beyond fortunate. So I wish to all my single customers, gay and straight, find that special significant other in your life. Without it, there’s infinitely less meaning. Enough of my soapbox. In case you haven’t noticed, that significant other of mine has been stocking the store with some really cool items lately, all themed … Continue reading →

Daytripper #4 Writer/Artist: Fabio Moon and Gabriel Ba I like it.  It’s pretentious, repetitive and sometimes predictable, but I do like it.  My specific apologies to the Professor, but I think Moon and Ba are fully aware of what they are doing, and loving every minute of it.  The pages are beautiful to look at even if the plot is a little rocky. Criminal #5 Writer: Ed Brubaker Artist: Sean Phillips There goes another round of the best crime comic currently in existence.  This group as always knows what they are doing and provides it in a quick and easy … Continue reading →

I’m baaaaaaaaaaaaack!  That’s right folks; The Professor is on his spring break “I swear I’m grading papers” cruise, so you’re stuck with me all over again.  Prepare yourself for less professional and reasonable criticism and a whole lot more fart jokes and petty insults! Let’s do this!Justice League Rise and Fall Special Writer: J.T. Krul  Artist: Mike Mayhew, Diogenes Neves, Fabrizio Fiorentino. Gee thanks DC, for ruining one of the characters that got me to read comics.  Apparently it’s not enough for Green Arrow to just kill Prometheus in a way that doesn’t make any sense, now he’s gotta be … Continue reading →
