One of our previous posts mentioned that Marvel and the Korean web portal Daum has announced a partnership that would culminate in an exclusive Avengers webcomic set in Korea called Avengers: Electric Rain. It will be written and drawn by one of the most popular webcomic writer-illustrators at Daum, Yeong-Hoon Goh.

Moon Knight is an amazing book. It doesn’t try to lift itself to lofty heights and doesn’t try to impress its readers with some pretentious grand quest. In this day and age of grand publishing events, a series of encapsulated adventures are just what’s needed for us to remember what good comic story telling is.

Image Comics is really making an impact with its cadre of creator-owned titles. It’s a great publishing decision: shared credit for innovative talent and a diverse publishing list.

Come closer… I got a shameful secret to share. Shhh… it’s between you and me.

There are some awesome selections for you to consider this week. Astro City and Star Wars released on the same day makes for excellent comic reading! I love both of these titles, so, while I hate to drop hints so early, it’s hard not to acknowledge how great these two books are

It’s a short list this week but it’s got some titles that have a lot of interest and a lot of promise, I’m really pleased to say.

If you weren’t a fan of the 2012 reboot, chances are you won’t be a fan of this second installment either. On the other hand, if you did like the reboot (as I did), then depending on the reasons you liked it there’s a good chance you’ll find this to be a solid sequel.

What’s on deck for this week’s pick has a few sparklers that you definitely need to pick up. So without further ado, let’s get right to it!

Fear. Sadness. Anger. Envy. Jealousy. Guilt. Loneliness. The so-called negative emotions. Here are 9 archetypes from pop culture that will not only help you cope with your negative emotions, they will help you channel those emotions into good, productive activity.

I have to confess, when The New 52 hit the shelves in 2012, I was really uncomfortable. Not only was the entire comic history of the DC universe as I knew rendered obsolete but it also made me feel … old. But after a couple of years of reading The New 52, I am re-thinking this.
