Wizard World Texas Day One Highlights
Blog@Newsarama (who, incidentally, quoted me awhile back regarding Batman’s maybe-death), has a Day-One report from Wizard World Texas written by Aron Head from EvilBastard.net.
The highlights (for me) include:
Greg Pak’s favorite line from World War Hulk was “I didn’t come to hear you whisper, I came to hear you SCREAM!” Yeah… mine too. That shit was [...]

Ok, first things first - you’re going to want to sit down for this.
Are you sitting? Good.
Here we go, then.
Frank Cho has…. actually finished penciling Mighty Avengers #6.

At this rate, if New Avengers does nothing but fill in issues, Mighty will catch up with New [...]

World War Huh? (WWH Spoilers Within)
Image from Wikipedia
I’ve finished reading World War Hulk and… I’m really not sure how I feel about it.
I mean, I guess there really wasn’t any other way to end it. It wouldn’t have made sense for Hulk to kill everyone, because Hulk is not a killer and, even if he was, there wouldn’t be [...]

Next, a quote from a recent LA Times article regarding the WGA picketing on Wall Street:
“Besides, said alliance spokeswoman Barbara Brogliatti, the anticipated $1 billion a year for video downloading by 2011 still will be dwarfed by projected sales of as much as $20.7 billion worth of ‘old-fashioned’ [...]

Veronica Mars - The Season That Was Not to Be.
JK Parkin at the Newsarama blog has lots of interesting tidbits. Max Headroom as Moloch the Mystic, Darla in the new Punisher movie, images and videos from the set of Incredible Hulk (which apparently has a shitty script)… all sorts of cool stuff, but one thing really set off my fanboy alarms - The [...]

Marvel’s Digital Comics “Unlimited” is a Step in the Right Direction, But Not Quite Enough
For those who are living under a rock and/or haven’t been paying much attention to comics news lately, Marvel launched their Digital Comics “Unlimited” service today, offering unlimited access to Marvel’s back-library for $9.99 per month or $59.88 per year.
This is definitely a step in the right direction for Marvel, but the journey’s not over. [...]

X-Men Messiah Complex - So Far, So… Far
Image from Wikipedia
I just finished reading the first issue of X-Men Messiah Complex and all I can really say is that it doesn’t completely suck so far. I’m going to try to reserve judgement, since we all know that I’ll end up reading the entire thing, anyway, but I have a few - admittedly [...]
