Back in March, the common perspective around us began to take on an extremity of panicked proportions. In fact, there were post-apocalyptic jokes being thrown around social media that this virus was going to herald the beginning of the end of the world as we knew it. That accounted for …

I ask myself this almost every morning: what is the most important thing I will do today? In that regard, I’m setting myself up for telling a story, and one that I hope will end well by the end of the day. We all have importance in our everyday adventures. …

It’s a fandom-filled review list this week as we explore comic representations of some of the greatest franchises to entertain fans in the last fifty to sixty years! Of course, we’re talking about the viscerally nostalgic impact of Warhammer followed up by a double-punch combination of Star Wars and Star …

I like my villains dramatic and grandiose. In 1977, Star Wars gave us a perfect cinematic villain on a scale that hearkened back to the early days of film-making. The villains in the old Republic (Heh … just caught a pun there) serials were also rich in their menace. They …

If you’ve been following this column for a while, you’ll see that my modus operandi is pretty much the same thing every week. Comics are a major part of my life, and with the exception of a lost decade, they always have been. Because of that relationship, I like to …

The way we appreciate a good story is to connect it to the things that are going on in our daily lives. We see conflict, characters and settings and we can’t help but relate them to the things that happen all around us. That’s the case with Conan the Barbarian …

One of my greatest gaming victories was a Games Workshop board game by the name of Adeptus Titanicus. Giant robots and futuristic warriors and weapons fighting in a future 40, 000 years in the future. In the real world though, painted plastic toys that you assemble yourself to create armies. …

Season Two of The CW's 'Pandora' is here, and we had a chance to talk with writer/showrunner Mark Altman about what lies in store.

I find that with trying to adjust to the new norm these days, my mind incorporates a daily changing array of ear worms. You know, when you have that ONE song stuck on continuous loop playing in the back of your mind all day? It can be a bit irritating, …

You ever have one of those weeks when it’s Wednesday and the rest of it just seems foreboding? That’s where I am this week. Maybe it’s the rising COVID numbers; maybe it’s the bleakness of the rest of the year, but at the same time, I have to say, reality …

2020 should be known as “the year we fought the good fight”. Resilience is a commodity in great demand this year. Frontline workers, first responders, medical staff and now teachers have been called on to engage in light of the common good. Of course, this means exposing themselves to a …

We sat down with filmmaker Jay Baruchel and comics creator Jimmy Palmiotti to talk about their adaption of 'Random Acts of Violence.'

Hope. I think that’s a quality in short supply this year. I mean, we all know that COVID-19 isn’t going to be here forever, but the strife the whole world has to endure until it runs its course or we develop a virus is pretty harrowing. School starts for me …

Exploration requires a special type of courage. To even want to go to a place where there are no definites, no assurances, or protection is a risk that a lot of us – including myself – simply don’t want to undertake. That’s a measure of greatness that, at least, I …

There is something pure and noble in the act of helping others. As I stand upon the edge of going back to school next week, I am filled with discouragement as I still have had no direction in how I am going to teach my students for the upcoming new …
