The trailer for “Green Lantern: Beware My Power” popped up on our radar yesterday and it looks interesting. I have an issue with Warner Bros. / DC’s straight-to-video projects that can’t embrace that there can be multiple Green Lanterns that can exist at the same time. The John Stewart / Hal Jordan dynamic has charm […]
Epic Byrne: The Comic Art of John Byrne
Epic Byrne is my excuse to share art from my favorite artist of all time. You’ll note that I did not say “comic artist”. He is probably the reason I sampled other comics from the Fantastic Four, to Lab Rats. He is more that just an artist but also a wonderful writer. He’s a fan […]
Dark Multiverse: Crisis on Infinite Earths Review(ish)
No Spoilers. So I’ve been a bit out of touch, and if you’ve stuck with me on some of the different mindshare channels out there you know why, and this one-shot took me by surprise. I am a sucker for legacy heroes, All-Star Comics from the 70’s and the All-Star Squadron. Getting into those heroes […]

Denny O’Neil: Wordsmith Extraordinaire
Denny O’Neil and I have one thing in common, well at least two, we were both born on the same calendar day and we both love good stories. My lack of eloquence is always evident when I search for words that convey my feelings for somebody important to me who has passed away. Not only […]
Founders Battle: JLA vs the Avengers
While browsing images, as I am often want to do, surfed right into this legendary battle. My only issues with this piece are that Hal Jordan’s (Green Lantern) costume isn’t correct for the era, but that is a minor detail, and Black Canary didn’t appear in Brave and the Bold No. 28. She did appear […]
