Hi all, We need the Eternals Omnibus released again. This volume, which I missed is going for over $100 online. And is no longer released. I admit I missed this volume and didn’t collect these books then. But it seems from what I’ve seen online, the demand is there. And prices are really up...
One question I hear is: Blue Beetle, is he Public Domain? It’s a bit tricky because DC Comics owns Blue Beetle and you don’t want to mess with them! Here is what I’ve read and learned: Basically DC Comics bought the rights to Blue Beetle from Charlton Comics. The Fox Comics version of Blue...
I’m hearing that the Iron Man Omnibus is out! But only in comic shops. I’ve checked Amazon, but it’s not out yet. I’ll wait because I get a better deal online, then I ever get in my comic shop. Which is cover price plus tax. And their is no way I’m paying that. And...
I just want to ask a question, if you are a comic book maker, or hopefully plan to be one day. Are you going to use any Public Domain Superheroes as part of your project? I plan to, and was a reason I started this website. Because until Project Superpowers came out, I didn’t...
The wait is almost over and Iron Man will be out in theaters. I think from the buzz I’m hearing, and the little I’ve seen. This is looking really good. I hope it does well cause Marvel Comics can use a new franchise hit. As it is, the X-men films are about done, and...
http://www.immonen.ca/news/archives/963 Click that link to read the story. This really sucks. Basically a guy’s website was stolen by a Chinese book publisher and word for word and art page for art page, this material was literally stolen and published and sold as a $100 book with no permission even being asked. I’ve heard of...
Just wanted to say that the Hulk Omnibus is planned for June. I’m planning to get the regular cover version. Not the Alex Ross cover variant. But to each their own, right?! This nice volume will collect: - Hulk #1-6, the Hulk’s Original 6-issue run before the series was canceled. -Tales to Astonish #59-101,...
I got my hands on the Image Comic called: Fantastic Comics #24, don’t worry there is no #23 by Image. Basically they picked up the title name and numbering sequence off of the original Fantastic Comics comic book which ended at #23 during the Golden Age of comics. This is a compilation comic with...
I’ve noticed this for the past few years and personal experience as well. I remember the old days where if you missed a certain comic. You had to track it down and buy it. Even pay quite a bit more if it was a hot issue. Because for the most part, if you missed...
I can’t wait to get the Iron Man Omnibus when it’s out. I always like the original cover versions and have not bought any variant covers. But that’s just my choice. This Omnibus will have the much preferred sewn binding. It Collects Tales of Suspense #39 to issue #83 and Tales to Astonish #82,...
Public Domain Superheroes have at last come back in comic books in full force. Thanks to Dynamite Entertainment and Image Comics, these Golden Age greats are returning. This blog is about these characters. What I like and plan to one day use, and you can use them to, is these Public Domain characters that...
I’ve read Dynamite Entertainment’s Project Superpowers issues # 0, 1, 2 and without trying to spoil it, I will admit I like the series so far. Issue 0 was a stand alone issue set in World War II, and stars the Fighting Yank. Overall the issue was great, and the only fault I found...
I mentioned creators and creations, in a blog post. Now I’d like to talk Batman. As you might know, it says Bob Kane created him. Yet, researching the history. It really was a co-creation and a guy named Bill Finger, who wrote the stories and gave ideas, co-created him. And how much influence did...
I was watching Family Guy, the Television show and the creator, a guy in his 30’s Seth MacFarlane happened to mention off-hand, how the show made him a millionaire. I for some reason, probably because I’m reading some issues now, thought about Spider-Man’s creators, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko. I was thinking: Family Guy...
I hear a lot of arguments about who created the Marvel Universe, was it Stan Lee or Jack Kirby who deserves all the credit? And I’ve seen passionate Kirby fans argue that: Stan Lee only did dialogue. And Kirby made all the creative ideas. Even though, it’s established fact Lee gave plot ideas in...
