The recent Comic Con announcement that rising talent Jonathan Hickman will be penning a Ultimate Thor miniseries with all-star artist Carlos Pacheco has got my mind going a million miles an hour. Hickman (who’s never met a high concept that he couldn’t spin into gold) is going to...

Ah lovely readers, it’s another week where there is a ton of stuff that I have to comment on so here we go with another Grab Bag addition of Just a Thought. Gene Colan could use a bit of help Gene Colan is one of the masters. Tomb of Dracula is one of those books that up and coming...

Info about Steve McNiven's health and it's effect on Nemesis, and then some rambles from Pete about Mark Millar.

Okay, unlike the previous adaptation of Mark Millar’s comic work; Wanted, comic fans can expect a fairly faithful adaptation of his work this time around. For those of you who haven’t read this limited series (and you damn well better get off your butt and pick it up soon!), Kick Ass is...

CBD has covered Mark Millar and Steve McNiven’s new comic, Nemesis, since it was just a vapour. We also mentioned Millar’s plan to auction off the name of the cop who goes up against the titular character in Nemesis for charity, just as he did the name of the lead in Kick-Ass, won by Dave...

Over at Millarworld, Mark is giving it proves why he’s considered the PT Barnum of Comic books. Okay, am pretty drunk. I downed many Guinnesses as my gang re-watched Spidey 2 tonight (a master-piece, btw) and am now weirdly wide awake. But have spoken to three directors about the...

Who knew you had so much in common with Captain America? Talking to Box Office Magazine, director Joe Johnston dropped some knowledge about the plot of the Captain America movie. Yeah, we sort of suspected it was a period film, but did you know that Captain America goes AWOL? It’s all...

It’s the beginning of a new year. A year of hope, a year of promise and hopefully a year of kick ass comics. To start this year off I’m going to talk about…well a bunch of things. Come on! It was the holidays! Nothing really big happened….or did it? Marve/Disney Deal...

With 2010 one day away we have much to look forward to at the beginning of this new decade. Here’s at look at what books will be getting all the news coverage over the next 365 days. Scott Pilgrim Vol. 6 (Oni Press) Written and Drawn by Bryan Lee O’Malley Over the course of five...

Finally got to read Old Man Logan. Yeah, I know, about a month late. I must admit, it was worth the wait. The end. I’m just kidding. Although maybe if Comic Book Daily lets me, maybe I will start writing three line reviews. But regardless, I still stand by it. Mark Millar is one of...

Nick Cage is a weird actor. He’s only good when he’s playing really off the wall characters – whenever he goes for ‘quasi-normal good guy’ I tend to hate him. Have you ever watched National Treasure? Holy god was that terrible.. So when I heard he was going to be...

Mark Millar and Steve McNiven are teaming up once again to bring widescreen action to our four coloured medium, this time however they’re doing it without any Marvel characters. Instead they’re going to give us a brand new world where nothing is really what it seems. After...

Really, you want to read something here? Kick-Ass is pretty much a love it or hate it comic, which usually tends to be the ones that are the best kind to read. There’s nothing really all that original in the comic, and while movies have done the whole – super-hero in the real world...

So while nothing is definitely known just yet. It seems like we have more to look forward to from the quite-often-really-late-but-it’s-okay-because-his-artwork-is-so-beautiful-that-no-one-really-wants-to-complain Steve McNiven and some british writer named Mark Millar. While nothing has...
