    So the controversy continues to grow around Spider-man and his introduction into the Marvel Universe films-now what we’re hearing is that Spider-man may not be the skinny white dude he’s been in the comic books for, well ever…We’re being tempted with him being African American instead and that he may not even be Peter Parker…

  • Comic Book Cover of the Week: She-Hulk’s Racey 80’s Centerfold!

    This particular cover for Fantastic Four # 275 has always been a total favorite of mine! In fact when the Thing left the Fantastic Four back in the early 1980’s I was at first super pissed! But then he got his solo book which ended up being one of my favorite titles as a kid…

  • The Death of Wolverine #4: Final Verdict!!

    Just got done reading the Death of Wolverine #4, the final nail in the coffin for Logan! Now we all know that Wolverine will only be “dead” for maybe a year or two tops. Same cookie cutter superhero death formula as always, a big comic book hubub, news stories, a bunch of comic books that…

  • Comic Book Cover of the Week: Jarvis Leads The Avengers?!

    Avengers #201 from 1980 has a truly memorable cover by George Perez & Terry Austin! It’s not often you see Jarvis showcased as the lead in any comic book much less and Avengers issue. This however features the legendary butler ready to action telling the Avengers to “stand back”! So just what is it that…

  • The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Trailer…not so Amazing…

    The Amazing Spider-man 2 trailer dropped today and I swear I’m trying to have an open mind about it! But True Believers, let’s be honest, if you are an actual real comic book fan of Spider-man then I know you agree this movie’s shaping up nicely to be a giant flaming Electro-cuted sticky Green Rhino-cerous…

  • Classic Iron Man’s Still the best….

    I just wanted to take a second out to say that the classic red and gold Iron Man still to this days blows the armor off of the new slick movie and comic book versions. I mean he looks like a true super hero here doesn’t he?! Seriously I have to say I just don’t…

  • Where Are All The Realistic Comic Book Super Heroes?

    I was talking with some friends the other night about something I think is really interesting and kinda depressing in the world of comics books. The topic of realism in super hero comic books. I am not talking realism in a way of superhuman beings roaming the earth, having crazy powers and fighting crime. Nope,…
