If the other comic series I mentioned before seemed a little too tame to you, this is the one that will push you over the edge. Chew is unlike any other comic series out there. It's dark humour at its finest. Come on in to find out why Chew won the 2010 Eisner for Best New Series.

I may be on vacation, but I always find ways of securing my latest comics.  This week I was able to get the illusive 1:100 black and white variant for Amazing Spider-Man #640 on the same day as the rest of my books.  There was also a very sweet original graphic novel released this week, Dark Rain: [...]

Since I’m currently enjoying some vacation time, I was able to pick up my comics fairly early this afternoon.  I know the post is going up around the usual time, but c’est la vie.  I also have a picture of the one in one hundred black and white Quesada variant for Amazing Spider-Man #639 that just [...]

Thanks to the increase in price, I’ve had to drop quite a few books.  You’ll notice as the weeks go on that my list of comics will become even smaller.  This $3.99 price point is just too much given the sheer volume of books I purchase.  So today you’ll notice I only bought 10 books and an original [...]

I didn’t have a chance to go and buy my comics last week, but here’s what I picked up this week.  The new price of $4 per comic is sure taking a hit to my wallet.  I’m going to have to seriously start to think about dropping quite a few series in order to continue this hobby.  The prices are [...]

I’ve waited three years for this week.  Before I jump into my initial impressions, let’s showcase this week’s books. As you can see I didn’t manage to get the sketch variant for Amazing, but I’ll be ordering it online and will take a pic once it arrives.  The comic shops had to order 100 issues in [...]

It may have taken me a little while to get my comic situation under control, but now I’m officially back in action folks.  I may not be able to update this article every Wednesday, but I will ensure the update follows sometime during the week.  This week was a great week to start back as JMS [...]

This will be my final comic post for the next two weeks.  We’re off to E3 next week, and I won’t have a chance to pick up the books until the following week.  That means on June 23rd, I’m going to have a whole bunch of comics to showcase.  Here are all the goodies I picked up yesterday. I’ll be [...]

Sorry for the extreme delay, but we posted reviews this week, and there were some pretty interesting news articles to keep you all busy.  I really didn’t have a chance to go pick up my weekly books until yesterday, but E3 booking has been keeping me ultra busy.  Anyways, here are the books I picked [...]

It’s Wednesday, you know the rest… There’s not very much to say.  I’ve got a heck of a lot of books to read before the week is out.  I suppose I could mention that this week marks the final time Wonder Woman will be written by Gail Simone.  JMS takes over as of next issue.  Should be pretty epic [...]

This week I missed out on the latest issue of Superman: War of the Supermen which kind of ticked me off, but what can you do.  I’ll be picking up #3 and #4 next week with the rest of my books.  This week was a pretty small week for me in relation to all the other books I’ve been buying lately. [...]

I know, I know, I’m late.  There was no PS Store update or anything.  What’s the world gotten to?  I’ll show you what the world’s gotten to… Yup, I’ve been hooked on the playoffs since they began, and yesterday I was at the Bell Center cheering on the Habs as they beat the Pens 5-2 to win the [...]

I hope you all had the chance to go and pick up some free comics this past Saturday during Free Comic Book Day.  If you did, what did you think of War of the Supermen?  The follow-up was released this week, so if you’re looking for a good place to jump into the comic world, this is certainly [...]

Well Free Comic Book Day has officially come to a close.  I did pretty good, managing to score all the Gold comics and a lot of the Silver comics as well.  The difference between the two are basically the amount of money the companies invest into the event, and how the comics the publishers really [...]

I know I’m a few days late, but that’s only because I wanted to hype up this Saturday’s Free Comic Book Day.  That’s right folks, all across North America, and in most parts of Europe, this Saturday is Free Comic Book Day.  That’s when publishers try and convince new readers to come onboard by [...]
