Posted on August 14, 2010 by admin

A very nice, very light week arrives at your local comic shop this week, just in time for the schools to be back in session!  Don’t worry, I’ve got an opinion on a fair amount of them.  Also, I’m watching the movie Seven while I write this, so that should lead to an interesting state of mind.  Let’s do this! My Top Five (The Five Best Comics of the Week) Buzzard #3 Writer/Artist: Eric Powell Just a reminder for all of you, Eric Powell is one of (if not The) best writer/artist combinations out in the market today.  If you’re looking for consistently … Continue reading →

A Fantastic Marvel and DC Silver Age Collection Just Purchased!

Posted on July 20, 2010 by Alan

An incredible amount of key books have been surfacing lately! In the last two days, we acquired a very nice collection of Marvel and DC books, approximately 1,100 items, all from the Silver Age, circa 1962-1967!

Phil’s Reviews — Stuff I Read and Put Back #174

Posted on July 10, 2010 by Phil

Shadowland #1 (of 5) — Writer: Andy Diggle;  Pencils: Billy Tan;  Inks: Batt This is the kickoff to yet another crossover event, one stretching over the next five months, although the only regular titles involved seem to be Daredevil and Thunderbolts (depressingly, there will be 18 “extra” books with “Shadowland” in the title that readers will be expected to buy too). It looks like a “Dark DD” riff, sort of like DC’s Arsenal (but, sadly, without any dead-cat weapons or heroin use), involving DD, who’s now the leader of the Hand (don’t ask) against most of the NYC heroes, like … Continue reading →

As the old saying goes, when it rains, it pours! In the last week, we acquired a nice run of Amazing Spiderman, from issue #9 and up, and Daredevil, from #17 and up. A selection of these early issues are currently being featured in our “as seen on our online shop” display case in the west end of the store! The majority of these books are in the G/VG “affordable” range. The day after acquiring this collection, we also purchased a Giant Size X-Men #1, and an early Silver Age X-Men #3! We’ll be purchasing many more early books from … Continue reading →
