Happy New Year and welcome back! This week, it’s the call of responsibility that governs this week’s theme in the comic lists. After all, it’s been a restful and relaxing holiday break but like the rest of the western world is realizing, the holidays are over and it’s time to …

It’s not Christmas but my very own Comic Santa Claus has just arrived to deliver my shipment of choices for discussion this week. However, I must confess, my mind is already clouded and distracted by thoughts of Star Wars sugar plums … and Star Trek lumps of coal. However, I …

Another lead-in to Fan Expo here in Toronto … it’s happening next week, after all. I was contemplating the nature of comic book artists and writers and why we want to meet them so badly. They’re a different breed of celebrity compared to the movie stars and television actors that …

Why do the “bad” people succeed in life? You know who I’m talking about. You find them everywhere don’t you? In the workplace, school, or when you’re driving home from somewhere.

As with all Humble Bundles you can name your price, get tons of comics and support charity with the Dungeons & Dragons Humble Bundle.

A disaster at Bartok Industries threatens to unleash a plague of human/fly hybrids on the world. Will Martin’s last-ditch effort stop the swarm or is the insect apocalypse upon us?

Super heroes aren’t doing it for comics any more. Seriously … when’s the last time a super hero comic really grabbed public attention? For me, Moon Knight is my choice, but even still, I find that it’s an exception to the rule and I’m drawn to more non-super hero books …

It’s time for San Diego Comic Con … and I’m not there. I’m a comic guy, a Trekkie, a classic geek and nerd in both uses of the words and I’m not at Comic Con. Well, I’m also a dad, a teacher and I have responsibilities that get in the …

Comics reviewed this week: Convergence #8, Infinity Gauntlet #1, Secret Wars Journal #1, and many more.

It's shock value that sells these days, and Planet Hulk #1 was one hell of a shock.

I was hesitant about 'Secret Wars' #1 but #2 reset my expectations with the realization that it is conceptually greater than I first gave it credit for.

'Godzilla: Cataclysm' features an all-star Toho Monster cast in a post-apocalyptic setting and is a worthy addition to IDW's Godzilla canon.

'Convergence' is the big publishing event that’s dominating the comic market this week. Will this be the event that DC needs to restore order to its universe?

Comics are a medium that is accessible to both kids and adults and make the idea of family literacy an achievable and viable activity for parents and kids.

While using the hero from 'The Fly II' puts it at some disadvantage, 'The Fly: Outbreak' compensates with gorgeous art and promises of a more epic plot.
