Well screw it. If Johnathan is going to post reviews this late then so am I. Memorial Day in the States screwed up our comic buying schedule, and I didn’t end up picking up my comics until Saturday either. And for the past couple of days I have been doing a whole "should I…shouldn’t I…" [...]

Supergirl #40 I don’t know why people think I am trying to fool them when I say that this series is awesome and all superhero comic fans should be reading it. Supergirl is such a well-constructed, likable heroine and this latest storyline has been exciting and fun to read. Plus, Jamal Igle draws Supergirl with [...]

Hey everyone! I got a whole lot of comics this week. Really, too many comics. But my computer is fixed and Photoshop is reinstalled, so I am able to share my thoughts with you once again. Here we go with a small selection of what I read this week. Uncanny X-Men Annual #2 Namor fans [...]

Welcome to Living Between Wednesdays…where we like our coffee black and our comic reviews late. I have been awful sick lately, but fortunately there were a lot of good comics to read.

Man, I read so many comics this week. Here are some of them: DC Universe Decisions #1 (OF FOUR??!!) I’ll just say this, because this could turn into a whole long thing if I get started: it’s been done before and it’s been done better. All-Star Superman #12 Well…what can be said? This comic was [...]

Let’s just say you’re a little girl. And say you are alone and in danger. And say that the only super hero around to save you…is Ghost Rider. Like, seriously, how terrified would you be if you saw this lunging at you? Image taken from Ghost Rider #35 by Jim Starlin, reprinted in Ghost Rider [...]

I am so into Jason Aaron’s run on Ghost Rider. I urge everyone to jump on board. Jason Aaron, of course, being the very talented writer behind the amazing ongoing series Scalped, along with the Vertigo mini-series The Other Side. He also recently completed a brief-yet-awesome run on Wolverine. Ghost Rider is a character that [...]

Over at the Invincible Super Blog, Chris Sims is having a contest to celebrate the most nineties-looking covers of all time. Although you basically can’t top any cover in the Marvel 2099 universe, I feel that issue #15 in the oh-so-90s Ghost Rider/Blaze Spirits of Vengeance series is a pretty good representation of the era: [...]

What If?, for those of you who may not be giant nerds, is an on-again, off-again series from Marvel comics, filled with tales of alternate realities and hosted by the cosmic-powered, blue-toga’d Watcher. The Watcher’s entire race are bald, emotionally detatched voyeurs in blue togas who observe other civilisations for no discernable reason* and are [...]
