When I was at the London Film and Comic Con a couple of weeks ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Claire Bradshaw, who has a long history of working in the gaming industry. She's left that behind – or so she thought. Because it seems to be obsessing her creative process – and has […]

San Diego Comic-Con exclusives can fetch a pretty penny on the aftermarket. But not all of them are actually exclusive and can even rear their pretty heads in your local comic shop for a lot less than you'd pay on eBay.

Marvel's new character – and presumed series, by the registered trademark they have made – Mosaic was presented in the fashion of a jigsaw.
