Fanboys vs Zombies #1 Review Appeals to the Masses
Fanboys vs Zombies #1 Review There are times when you can throw things in a title and know that it's going to appeal to the type of audience you are trying to attract. Fanboys vs Zombies is an example of one of those. Zombies are huge right now, you add Marvel, Ash, and even Cheerleaders with zombie in the title and you've caught my eye. So seeing Fanboys vs Zombies … [Read more...]
Avengers vs X-Men AvX #1 Review. Round 1 is Here!
Avengers vs X-Men AvX #1 Review "Round 1" Arguably the biggest event in the comic book universe this year is here! With one optic blast from Cyclops, the fight for mutant or human kind is on like Donkey Kong. Avengers vs X-Men #1's first page makes this battle look extremely lopsided, with the Avengers sporting 22 members and the greatly outnumbered X-Men standing with … [Read more...]
The New Deadwardians #1 Review
The New Deadwardians #1 Review The New Deadwardians is the fourth and final new series from Vertigo and the only one that comes with zombies.

In this universe humans, vampires (the Young), … [Read more...]

But, that moment isn’t until next week, so to help tide you over until then Marvel has graciously and conveniently … [Read more...]
Super Crooks #1 Review
Super Crooks #1 Review The surprised look on Brian’s face (co-owner of Cosmic Comics) when Matt handed over Super Crooks to me yesterday, “Millar has this book out too?”, was more a look of joyous surprise that Mark Millar had indeed released two books this month. I’m going to assume Millar, of Kick Ass fame, rarely releases books either on time or at all. This being my … [Read more...]
Dominique Laveau Voodoo Child #1 Review
Dominique Laveau Voodoo Child #1 Review Voodoo Child is the third new title to drop from Vertigo this month with Fairest, Saucer Country coming before it, and The New Deadwardians releasing next week. So far, Voodoo Child is the weakest of the bunch. Not all can be winners. Maybe it was a fault of my own, but I was completely confused throughout the whole Voodoo Child story. … [Read more...]
