More Horror! Bongo Comics has been adding issues of Bart Simpson’s Treehouse of Horror to Comixology and I’ve been buying them. It’s interesting seeing The Simpsons in another medium, and honestly theses horror parodies are a better fit than a “normal” Simpsons comic book seems to be. It also helps that issue #13 which I…

So, I went to New York Comic Con this weekend, courtesy of my BFF’s (their word, not mine…I use full words like BEST FRIENDS 🙂 ::HUG:: ) Seth and Erin. Seth was in Germany, doing German things, so I accompanied his lovely fiancee and soon to be wife. This is her in front of “Artist…

Vampire Week continues! Allow me a brief moment of wistful nostalgia if you will. You will? Oh, thank you, sir or madam! See, it used to be that you could buy comics ANYWHERE. Grocery stores, drug stores, stationary stores, toy stores, tire repair shops…okay, maybe not tire repair shops, but the point is, they weren’t…

I hereby declare this…VAMPIRE WEEK! Yes, much like Shark Week, except Sharks haven’t been neutered by a series of crappy teen romance novels and films. During Vampire Week I will attempt to remind you that Vampires are great, mainly through comic books, but I will sprinkle in some references to great vamp literature, films, and…

Remember when I said I would re-post previous horror comic recommendations in the build up to Halloween? I told the truth! I made so many recommendations! I talked about Locke & Key, American Vampire, maybe I mentioned some other stuff? I don’t know, go click over there and read it and come back. I know,…

A reader requested more Western Comic Book recommendations. I’m honestly a little lacking in that area, but here goes: Scalped by Jason Aaron and R. M. Guéra. I’ve only read the first volume of this series, and it may be better to classify in as a modern western noir than a straight up western, but it’s…

This is something resembling a feature, “Folks Talkin Bout Comics,” where I’m joined by a friend via Google Chat to talk about a comic book that we both enjoy. Maybe it’ll entice you to read this comic, maybe not. In the case of Transmetropolitan, by Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson, it’s a book that inspires…

Seriously, this is one of those books that I can’t believe Marvel has published. I’m not trying to say that in a stuck up manner, but they’re a fairly conservative publisher when it comes to trying new or expiremental things and it’s just so…weird and fun. Credits! Defenders is written by Matt Fraction! I have…

Been light on posts…busy busy busy. Back to schedule (pronounce that it a pompous way) soon…

In real life, when bored, distracted, or annoyed, I will wish upon a star for zombies. This started soon after playing Resident Evil 2 in 1998, which began my love affair with zombies. I would sit in class, or at work, and ponder what I would do if a zombie outbreak were to occur at…
