Wow...just Wow
This is an amazing book that appeared on comic shop shelves this week and it's like a DIY comic from a brilliant friend living in the 19th century. The silver inked logo and… Continue

Top comic book runs (#5-#1)
5. Usagi Yojimbo – Stan Sakai
Like Jeff Smith, Wendy & Richard Pini, and Dave Sim, Stan Sakai made comics his way, telling stories about feudal Japan through the eyes of a ronin rabbit. And while it could have lent itself to parody, and make no mistake, parts of Usagi are hilarious, Sakai made us believe in an ancient time populated by animal-people and taught us Japanese history… Continue

Top ten comic book runs (#10-#6)
10) Alpha Flight – John Byrne
During my golden years of reading comics, this was THE one. I had just missed the Claremont/Byrne years of Uncanny X-Men, but I made sure I got to the drug store every month to pick up the new issue of Alpha Flight. They were an unusual team, echoing the Defenders, in that they didn’t seem to like hanging out with each other…at all. But the… Continue

Wolverine - Prodigal Son review

Anyway, Antony Johnston (a British writer who has done work I've liked at Oni) and Filipino artist Wilson Tortosa are the team behind thi… Continue

The new animated Wonder Woman film on DVD is actually pretty great.

I've seen most of the Marvel and DC animated, made-for-DVD, films and this one, much to my surprise, is THE best one of the bunch. Gail Simone helped write it and a lot of the humor she brings to her comic writing i… Continue

In the spirit of Newsarama’s own Readers’ Favorites of 2009 Tourney, I thought I’d get a view from my local comics shop and see what my friend in comics, Chris Ureta Casos, the long-time buyer for Comics Dungeon, here in Seattle, had to say about comics in 2009 and much more.

It couldn’t have happened to a nicer two issues of [...]Comics Grinder: Fall Out Toy Works
We have an appropriate comic to consider this holiday season, a story involving a toy maker. But this story is not as sweet as it may seem, as often is the case with the good stuff.
