From today's Action Comics #21 which, curiously, is not available on ComiXology, Kindle or iTunes Yet Anyway…
Much has been made in the New 52 of Superman and Wonder Woman getting it on But what about the classic pairing of Lois and Clark? Well, as of today it seems both closer… and yet further away than[...]

Back when reading comics was fun!
Those were the days… But what if things were a little different?
What if, instead of growing up with Superman, Spider-Man, Plastic Man, Batman, and Robin… there was Judge Justice, Scarlet Macaw, Herr Pretzel, Admiral Rhino and Bazooka Girl?
And what if all these fun and different superheroes somehow made it into[...]

DC Comics has gotten frustrating for me, the whole new 52 has pretty much been a let down save for a few of the series' and a few of the writers Simone, Snyder and Williams, all very good in my opinion But this week saw issue number four of Justice League of America[...]
As a result of losing their lease, Atlas Comics in Chicago is to close The owner writes;
After 25 years of continuous operation in the same location, Atlas Comics is closing its doors permanently on Saturday, June 29th, 2013 Until then it will be business as usual, including the new releases arriving Wednesday, June 26th All[...]
It represents a tally of the Wednesday Warriors, those so keen to pick up a comic book in question, that they can't wait until the weekend, let alone the end of the month.
The new X-Men comic predictably topped the list, but the performance of Scott Snyder and Sean Gordon Murphy's new Vertigo title, The Wake[...]

The Other Names For Forever Evil
From a variety of sources, we've come to piece together that in September,[...]
I understand that DC Comics is planning to announce Villain's Month on Monday And are beginning with something from the Detective Comics team.
I think.
As to whether Villain's Month is to be called Forever Evil, Dark Days, Black Dawn or, you know, just plain old Villain's Month, maybe we'll find out then.
Or not.
Today's equivocation has been[...]
From a variety of sources, we've come to piece together that in September, DC are running 52 one shot comics starring the villains of the New 52, and four issues of something called Forever Evil by Geoff Johns and David Finch And titles will include the members of the Society Of Super-Villains, and all the[...]
With only a recent interest in comics, I stumbled upon this gem during my first Free Comic Book Day event As a lifelong fantasy enthusiast, it offered a familiar landscape with the promise of new adventures.

I love comics too much, and care to give everything I've got to the readers And if I fail, then it's honest failure.
I had this news last night, but I wanted to wait till I'd at least heard from Dynamite publisher, Nick Barrucci Who told me;
I'm running around the city in meetings. Funny coincidence –[...]
This was the original Dan Jurgens' variant for Superman Unchained #1, a classic Superman figure defeating Doomsday. But, for continuity

From there we turn our gaze towards Matt Rebholz's trippy series, The Astronomer[...]
Issue #7 of Damsels makes bold moves with great confidence and therefore carries them off with plenty of style, but it also adds to the mythology of the series in a solidly constructed way and knows just how to tweak the drama to a pitch that demands a big finale, one that the first arc[...]

DC COMICS
DC was down by the tiniest amount in March, continuing a decent run for the publisher in the new year In March 2013, DC put out 76 new comic books featuring 689 credited creators, 606 men and 83[...]
Lots of stuff developing on Forever Evil yesterday, and still more coming today, looks like. After running yesterday’s rumour about DC’s Villain Month
These are two model sheets, clearly by Frank Cho, concerning something going on in Savage Wolverine. Or at least, suggesting something to come.
And that the FCBD Facebook page doubled in size with 66,000 members.
And world-wide, they estimate that 1.2 million people visited a comics store for Free Comic Book Day.
