Actually I don’t have much faith in Whedon as a director. He DOES NOT know how to pace or coordinate action well. He’s good with talking heads segments. But that does not make a great director, much less for an action film. And a property like Avengers needs a good balance of action....
Weapon X video A great Wolverine story that stands the test of time. It’s a great read with great art. If you haven’t picked it up yet, you should. It’s that good.
Essential Punisher 2 Review Essential Punisher 2 – Great issue worth getting. Whilce Portacio’s Punisher run all in one volume. Great art with great stories. And a very affordable price. Can’t go wrong with that.

http://www.youtube.com/show/mortalkombatlegacy?s=1 Enjoy this more realistic take on Mortal Kombat in this 10-part video series. It’s really good and worth a look.
Ultimate Spider-Man will get a new costume. And the highlight of it appears to be a web pattern in red. Now check out this Ditko cover from Amazing Spider-Man 28 from the year 1965. The highlight of it is red webbing on a black lighted costume. The Ultimate idea may be nice, but...
Hey all, I’m planning on updating this website over the weekend and add more feeds. Won’t be able to post much the next few days as I try to figure out a new style, theme and other options. Thanks for reading and checking out the website.
http://goodcomics.comicbookresources.com/2010/12/07/top-50-comic-book-writers-master-list/ The only problem with lists such as top 10 writers or artists is that each list is a subjective point of view. Put simply what one person likes and considers the best. Another person will disagree with. And a third person will disagree with both and so on. Which is why in...
http://spinoff.comicbookresources.com/2011/04/08/x-men-effects-artist-tim-miller-tapped-to-direct-deadpool/ The Deadpool movie took another step along the way by hiring Tim Miller, who was an effects artist in the first X-men movie. I think by hiring a new director with no experience in that field, makes for a bad sign that this movie will actually be any good. It looks like...
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=31762 Article about creator owned comics above. Personally I think creator owned books are the way of the future in terms of innovative ideas. You look at recent properties that have hit big and they are creator owned. The industry is not the same as it was before. A good format is to...
X-men Anime Looks like the animation and style for this X-men Anime series is good. But I know the anime taste is not for everyone. Still it’s always good to see a new X-men animated series.
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=31623 In the new Spider-Man story, the Jackal will return. And he is in his classic costume. I think it’s great to see the Jackal again. We haven’t seen him since the mid 1990s Clone Saga. And even then he had a needless ugly costume. I think the Jackal has always had the...
http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=31648 IDW Comics will publish Thor: Artist Edition. The work of Walter Simonson’s The Mighty Thor issues 337-340 and 360-362. I just find it very odd that Marvel would give another company permission to make a book like this? Why not just COPY the IDW artist edition style and make their own in-house...
I think one of the last great, and truly revolutionary artists on Spider-Man was Todd McFarlane. I remember reading back then the issues and they were something else to behold. There is a reason why McFarlane is so highly regarded as an artist. And his Spider-Man work was breathtaking. His influence on the...
