Episode 13: The reality of...

If you're a fan of Moon Knight, some unfortunate news came across the newswire this week. Sadly, with the series not eight issues old, Marvel announced it would be cancelling its Moon Knight title as of the twelfth issue in April.

Episode 12: I object! (to ...

Last week I saw something truly heinous, truly unseemly, truly asinine: "Daredevil is Marvel's best new comic series of 2011."

Crossovers I’d Like ...

Last week, a rumor made the rounds about a possible Spider-Man/Batman crossover. This rumor turned out to be false but it got me thinking, what crossovers would I like to see? If I could match up characters and licences from other companies and put together mini-series, what would I put...

Daredevil #118

Apparently there was not a single dictionary at the Marvel office in 1975. That is the only reason I can think of for suggesting that circus spelled sideways is death. Also, is that guy throwing live bats as if they were batarangs? PETA is going to be...

Last week, I had a number of special guests write about who they thought was the best superhero ever. From music guru Alan Cross to librarian Genevieve Kwant, the people and responses to the question and interpretations of the question were rather varied. But I never answered the question for...

Undervalued Spotlight #83

Daredevil #168, Marvel Comics, January 1981. The superhero genre was born with Action Comics #1 (June/38). All costumed heroes since owe pretty much everything to the success of Superman. So is where we are today all because of Action Comics #1? Well obviously yes and surprisingly...
