Today (May 20th, 2013) on Comixology, there is a sale focusing on one of my favorite current comic book writers, Kieron Gillen. So for only 99 cents an issue you can get nearly full runs of his work on Journey Into Mystery and Uncanny X-Men. I say “nearly full” since there are some dips intoContinue reading “More Digital Things To Buy With Your Digital Moneys”

Things I Loved About Comics This Year Part 3: The Dead Walk!
Revival by Tim Seeley and Mike Norton When is a zombie story not a zombie story? Well, Riddler, when it’s a Rural Noir! (I seriously did not notice that it said “A rural noir” above the title of every issue until the latest one. But in all fairness, this issue is the pulpiest). Sexy lady?Continue reading “Things I Loved About Comics This Year Part 3: The Dead Walk!”
Comics You Should Be Thankful For: Sandman by Neil Gaiman and Mike Dringenberg
I meant to get this out pre-Halloween, but I was all weird sorts of crazy-pants during the time home from work during the hurricane. Basically I accomplished nothing. I went to an amazing wedding, but in terms of feeling like I did something towards my goal of becoming a working writer? No, I did notContinue reading “Comics You Should Be Thankful For: Sandman by Neil Gaiman and Mike Dringenberg”
Awesome Comics Are Awesome: Comics I Bought, Week of 10/17/12
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 IContinue reading “Awesome Comics Are Awesome: Comics I Bought, Week of 10/17/12”
Everyone Dance To The Pumpkin Song
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,Continue reading “Everyone Dance To The Pumpkin Song”
Zombie Westerns Are The Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups Of Genre Mashups
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 atContinue reading “Zombie Westerns Are The Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups Of Genre Mashups”
Stuff I Bought, Week of 9/15/12 (SUPER VALUE EDITION!)
First off, I bought the latest issue of Saga, which was not really a new comic, but the price dropped on Comixology, so I purchased it! And then wrote about it, along with the previous two issues, here! But on it’s own, issue six is a nice bridge from the world building that’s been going onContinue reading “Stuff I Bought, Week of 9/15/12 (SUPER VALUE EDITION!)”

So let’s kickoff with the “Why you should read Morning Glories if you’ve liked X” portion of things first.

Some People Call Me A Ghost Cowboy…
