To me getting an independently published comic to review is like opening your stocking on Christmas morning. Sure they’re not the main event but they are always a legitimate surprise. DC, Marvel, Dark Horse, and even Image are sort of like the presents under the tree, you have expectations of what you want [...]
Blackest Night has seen the dead of the DC Universe rise, and now it seems they are everywhere. As the end of the year approaches, it feels like the dead are rising in every DC title, so it might be a good idea to throw out some quick recaps and give out some grades on [...]
Another glorious week for comics, I think! Comics are seeping into our lives and our culture a little bit every day. Some people I’ve talked to don’t even realize how influenced by comics the TV show Heroes really is, for instance. And still other people I’ve met have started reading comics after watching blockbuster movies [...]
Geoff Johns recently tweeted that he is meeting up with editor Adam Schlagman to talk about the follow-up project to DC’s mega-comic crossover event Blackest Night, hinting that the project would involve DC supervillain Black Manta, one of Aquaman’s classic foes. Johns tweeted:
Out with Blackest Night editor Adam Schlagman in NYC. Talking our next project…we [...]
Every once in a while, a girl’s got to go back to her roots. Oh, sure, I’m gung-ho over Blackest Night and I always have at least one or two indie comics or comics from smaller publishing companies every week, but once upon a time, I was a one comic company kind of gal. Every [...]
You would think that the year Captain America gets to be reborn would be a good time for Marvel’s red, white, and blue avenger. Yet some fans just won’t let it happen. First there was the Rob Liefield vs. Yellow Hat Guy incident. If you missed that one some douche bag known [...]
Since announcing that an almost unknown Australian actor would be playing the title role in Kenneth Branagh’s Thor, Marvel Studios has added some pretty significant players to co-star with Tom Hiddleston. First Natalie Portman was revealed to be playing Jane Foster, Thor’s mortal love interest, and now Variety is reporting that Anthony Hopkins will [...]
I’m trying out a new column here at eatsleepgeek called After the Fact. I’ve consistently read comics of some sort for the last 25 years. In that time I’ve gone through different phases, bought into fads, gone against the grain of what was popular, and had a commitment to the medium that was anywhere from [...]
After an unexpected hiatus last week, I’m back to spread the word about all of the awesome comics that are coming out this week. For those of you that don’t know, I’m also and artist and a graphic designer, and I’ve been working on a project for a national charity that’s been eating up my [...]
After taking a look at Marron’s highly ambitious 5 part geek Halloween Costume blow out, I thought about how awesome multi-part posts are and decided to do one myself. As I’m sure you know the first month of college and NFL seasons are in the books, and the CFL is getting ready for Canada’s [...]
Heroes: Chapter 5: Tabula Rasa
Peter/Hiro/Emma:
After fainting in Peter’s living room last week, everybody’s favorite paramedic brings his buddy Hiro to the hospital. When Hiro wakes up he thanks Peter and tells him that now when he’s jumping through time that he is brought where he needs to go, but ever since he learned how to [...]

Well here it is better late then never I guess, so since it’s so late I’m going to talk about some of the stuff I have read in the last couple of weeks. This should have been up sooner but between working up north and packing all of my meagre belongings up for the move [...]
I don’t think that anyone was expecting this.
This November, Playboy is going to be issuing a very special issue commemorating the 20th anniversary of The Simpsons and the bombshell that is concealing her assets behind the white glossy chair is none other that the ravishing blue haired wife of Homer J. Simpson.
No more will you [...]
