You can end up heading home with a 50 cent comic or you could end up heading home with a 4 foot R2D2 replica, a gorgeous 42” x 38” framed painting of Phoenix, 3 short boxes full of CGC graded comics, 2 Samurai swords, a Viking sword and a 50 cent comic...
I was inspired to write this column after reading Siege #2. The hero Sentry kills Ares by ripping him apart. Spoiler alert (I guess that should have gone first). The panel shows a lot of blood and pieces of flesh,…

Like a lot of people, I’ve thought about writing comics. Sometimes, while riding the subway, I’ll come up with characters and give them superpowers. Other times I’ll take my favourite characters and put them in new situations (What would Wolverine…
I had interviewed Cameron Stewart last year at Fan Expo just before word had broken about his three issue stint on Grant Morrison’s Batman & Robin. This shouldn’t really have come as much of a surprise as Stewart been a…
In my opinion Tales to Astonish #27 (Jan/62) is not one of the early Marvel Keys. “The Man in the Ant Hill” story featured the first appearance of Henry Pym but it was just another Sci-fi/fantasy story typical of the books Atlas Comics was producing at the time...
Auction Highlights #31 – Spidey Cross-Overs. Early Spidey cross-overs have always been in demand books. There’s been a few up for sale lately. Let’s see how they did.

Just days before the Saturday release of Apple’s iPad, there’s confirmation that the much-anticipated media slate will feature a Marvel Comics app developed by ComiXology. While noting that the Marvel application doesn’t yet appear in the iPad’s App Store, Andy…
For the most part, I like Mark Millar’s writing. I’m a big fan of his run on The Authority and the first run on The Ultimates. I enjoyed Kick Ass and thought Old Man Logan was great. But I’m not…
