Saw this on boing boing and thought it addressed the idiom of billionaires becoming superheroes. It was brought up this week on The Flash in reference to

I would say she is not 100% trustworthy and good, she is not 100% nice, but she is a really fascinating character to write! BB: For all her flaunted sexuality, Dejah Thoris of Mars has always been, at least in the modern comics, a strong and quite capable woman What threat is she facing on Barsoom[...]

Bemis' love of '90s superhero comics is sure to show in the story as well. BOOM! Studios Editor-in-Chief, Matt Gagnon shared his thoughts on the new comic by saying: When you combine Max's love letter to '90s comics with the same deeply personal storytelling that we saw with Polarity, Oh, Killstrike is what you get[...]

Wood is no stranger to historical fiction comics, with Northlanders pillaging pull lists every month when the series was coming out from Vertigo With Rebels though, it's a different focus on the actions that led to different historical events that are often shadowed by the more famous, such as the Boston Tea Party and the[...]

The Hip-Hop Family Tree books from Ed Kiskor, telling a history of hip hop music through the imagery of comic books of the time has been a successful and

This is how artist Jesse Wilm's Facebook page used to look. Now? Not so much. A rather different look. Jason took a number of other people's work, removed

I also think it was the first time I saw anyone ever write someone not believing footage they've seen on the Internet, which is pretty impressive. HMS: Crossed comics are incredibly violent and yet the underlying elements certainly attract creators once they start thinking about new angles and possibilities What about the Crossed concept makes it[...]

Bloodshot Reborn #1 hit stores today and, while we already know that Valiant is already at work on the next 25 issues of the series, it does appear they

In June, DC Comics is running it's mini-relaunch, as their titles get "batgirled" in an attempt to find and serve new audiences A couple of them slipped a month, new series Cyborg by David Walker and Ivan Reis and returning series Justice League United coming out in July. But I am told that two of their series, Dark[...]

I fondly remember reading some old Thunderbolt comics when I was a kid. KD: With a loose-knit team of capable and powerful heroes to play with, how does that affect your decision on the threat that they will face?  What kind of villain could possibly pose a threat to such a cadre of crimefighters? CB: For this[...]

New this week from Top Cow is The Tithe #1. Created by Matt Hawkins and Rahsan Ekedal, the same team who brought us Think Tank, this new series is a heist

So, there was a Batman leak today. You may have read about it. And people have been waiting for Scott Snyder to respond to it. I know there's a story out

Since comics take some time to make… do we think that this is a coincidence or do you think the writer Marc Guggenheim and artist Joe Bennett are having fun with the casting announcement? Recently it was announced that Stephen Amell had been cast as Casey Jones for the upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles sequel[...]

We've got an advanced preview for the fifth issue of Valiant's on-going series Imperium. This issue by Joshua Dysart and Scot Eaton kicks off a new story

It's no surprise that the comic is a hit because of creator and writer John Allison's long history making web-comics For those of you that are interested in checking out his work, be sure to visit his website. Moving forward, I'm incredibly happy to discuss Giant Days #2 written by John Allison, with art by Lissa[...]

By Jason Karlson LGBT representation is among the most hotly debated issues in comics at the moment and while the last few years have seen huge improvements in some areas, it can still feel like what little there is on offer sometimes still isn't as diverse as it could be and can be extremely hit or[...]

You may be aware that I'm pretty fond of shonen/fight comics, and Sakura, as a street-fighting schoolgirl who constantly strives to be stronger, plugs pretty neatly into that genre. So, naturally, she makes a pretty easy transition from screen to page in Udon's Street Fighter comics, particularly in her own Legends mini-series, by Marshall Dillon (letters),[...]

We hear Patton's thoughts, his memories, his reactions, and they punctuate and harmonize with his movements in an interesting back and forth, giving the comic an energy in the tension between language and image that few comics, if any, utilize these days when it's becoming all too common for the speech and the images in[...]

Something tells me that the popular girls in high school won't be reading this book, let alone comics So those who do read this book I'm sure won't be relating to the main characters In fact, they might hate the book because it might remind them of their current Mean Girls classmates. It was a good[...]

This is the regular column that hates Convergence. With editor Marie Javins preparing comic books in advance for April, so that all the solicited creators

Mark Waid has been talking to Diamond about his upcoming revamp of Archie with Fiona Staples. But it may be Jughead who is going through the retcongrinder
