They Might Be Giants – A Concert Event 22 Years in the Making (for me)

I have a lot of history with the quirky pop band They Might Be Giants. Their second and in my opinion most popular album Flood was the first cassette tape I went down to the mall specifically to buy (who remembers Musicland and Sam Goody?).

Fear Itself Was Epic

Fear Itself Was Epic

So I just picked up Fear Itself #7 today and was really curious how the storyline was going to wrap up in one issue. Needless to say I was not disappointed. Marvel’s event of the year was spectacular.

Bond, Jam…err…Swann, Michael Swann – Cold War #1 Mini Review

Rage Against the Post Apocalyptic – Orchid #1 Mini Review

Rage Against the Post Apocalyptic – Orchid #1 Mini Review

I read Orchid #1 completely through before discovering that it was written by Tom Morello, guitar playing mastermind from Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave. Initially upon discovering Morello was writing a comic my thought was this dude is too much of a guitar all-star to be wasting his talents on a comic book. Then […]

 

DC New 52 – Boost or Bust?

DC New 52 – Boost or Bust?

  So a few weeks back I wrote up a preview of what I thought about DC’s new 52. I was highly interested in seeing if some of the comics I thought would be good really were or if the bad were as bad as they looked.

Star Trek #1 – Boldly Going…Somewhere

The crew of the USS Enterprise is back and they look surprisingly similar to the stars of the J.J. Abrams movie reboot (remember the movie where Thor got his big break as Kirk’s dad, how’s that for a comic crossover).

“Moneyball” – Review

Does the film live up to the pedigree of all those involved?

 

Anne Rice’s Servant of the Bones #2 Mini Review

It is hard starting off reading this series with issue 2, even with the recap given at the beginning I had a hard time jumping into what was going on. However, once I got past the first few pages where it jumped to the back story of the title character things started to get interesting. […]
