Miracleman
I'm going to fully admit up front that this post--and the reading for it--were a result/reaction to the recent article about Neil Gaiman. I read it, was completely disgusted, and looked around my house to see what works of his I owned so that I could purge them. It turns out there wasn't much. I'd …
Giving Up the Ghost
This is going to be a little bit of an odd "review" of a book I just finished because I'm pretty sure it's going to veer into "talking about me" territory in a way that I try to avoid. I've had Eric Nuzum's Giving Up the Ghost: A Story About Friendship, 80s Rock, a Lost …
The Year in Uncollecting 2024
How can you say "Happy New Year!" when you are looking down the barrel of something that is going to be flat-out awful? I mean, I try not to be a doomsayer; in fact, for all of the pissing and moaning I do on a regular basis, I actually try to be optimistic. Or maybe …
Superman Family #170, 174, 186, 200
So I will be the first person to admit that my experience with Superman comics has been spotty at best. When I was a kid, I owned a few because I loved the movies and shows like Super Friends, but I think that amounted to an issue here and there during the pre-Crisis era and …
Mystery Box Marvels
At this year's Baltimore Comic-Con, I once again bought a mystery box from Third Eye Comics. It was the second time I'd done so and even though I probably didn't need a box of random comics, I had so much fun going through all the books last year that I had gotten in that mystery …
Nostalgia and heart done wrong and right
In my quest to get back into watching some of the many films that I have on my list, I decided to make a concernted effort to at least stream something once a week (or so) during December. The criteria for what I would stream more or less depended on what I was in the …

A #WarComicsMonth Wrap-Up
Among the series and miniseries that I read during this November, there were a few random books that really didn't need a single review, so just like I've done in the past (and did last month for #HorrorComicsMonth), I decided to just do quick reviews of all of them. And this will wrap up #WarComicsMonth …
