High Five!’s Adventures at San Diego Comic-Con 2010

Posted by: Robert Bazz on: August 3, 2010

For dubbing our San Diego condo “Hive Five Headquarters,” we sure were quiet during the actual convention. Surely, the other blogs were covering all of the actual news stuff (OMG EYE-STABS) while we were out, you know, having fun and stuff. But we wouldn’t be much of a comic blog if we didn’t talk about [...]

Scarlet #1: Has Icon Finally Grown Up?

Posted by: Robert Bazz on: July 9, 2010

Back when it was announced that Spider-Woman #7 would be the end of the series, Bendis mentioned in his press statement that he and frequent collaborator Alex Maleev had been working on a project for Icon Comics. I got extremely excited for this mystery book before I completely forgot about it (as I’m wont to [...]

High Five! Top Ten! – Most Important Gay Moments in Comics

Posted by: Robert Bazz on: June 14, 2010

Over the past couple months, some people have been going batshit crazy over the fact that Kevin Keller (who is – wait for it – GAY) transferred to Riverdale High to spend eternity in high school with Archie and the gang. Granted, this is a big step for a property that allowed Spire Christian Comics [...]

20 (Or So) Best Comics of the Decade: 10-6

Posted by: Preston Wheatley on: March 7, 2010

10 (tie).  Walking Dead – Robert Kirkman I can’t help feeling like this book should probably be #1 on our list. It isn’t (not even in my own personal ranking) because a few others were more popular, had greater impact, etc. But for sheer quality- in both concept and execution- The Walking Dead stood peerless [...]

Stumptown #1 – Carrie, Tara, Kate, Renee, and now, Dex!

Posted by: Maggie_C on: November 5, 2009

I know we’ve said it about a billion times, but we’ll say it again; Greg Rucka knows how to write for the ladies (both characters and readers). Rucka’s latest Oni Press book, “Stumptown,” kicked off this week, and it doesn’t disappoint. Rucka is well known as the “chick guy”; he’s one of very few writers [...]

Ultimate Daredevil and Elektra: It’s All in the Roots

Posted by: Robert Bazz on: October 21, 2009

As I said in my last post about Greg Rucka’s female characters, I’ve been hunting for a copy of his four-issue run on Ultimate Daredevil and Elektra for a while now. I finally came across a copy earlier today, in a discount bin at my favorite hometown comic shop. I snapped it up and immediately [...]

My friends will tell you, I can grow one hell of an Alan Moore beard. I love walking around shirtless while listening to Thin Lizzy’s “Emerald” on repeat. For every glass of water I drink, I have three glasses of beer. I have man hands and I have man feet and I have man junk. [...]
