The first Incredibles movie was such a perfect mix of comedic satire about the superhero genre as well as a satisfying superhero story, I’m so very interested to see if Pixar can strike gold again with this franchise. “While their mom and dad-Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl-are both taking on new and very different jobs, Dash and Violet are doing their best to help out. First, Dash and Violet become sudden and secret superheroes when they interrupt criminal activity on a routine grocery trip to pick up some essentials. Then, helping out at home, their efforts to keep up on their chores are unknowingly obstructed by the innocent mischief of their little brother, Jack-Jack. Set during the events of Disney/PIXAR’s The […]

This is a seriously cool concept, bringing the Hulk back to his most basic ‘monster’ roots! Can’t wait to see where it leads. “HORROR HAS A NAME. You’d never notice the man. He doesn’t like to be noticed. He’s quiet. Calm. Never complains. If someone were to walk up and shoot him in the head… all he’d do is die. Until night falls. And someone else gets up again. The man’s name is Banner. The horror is THE IMMORTAL HULK. Rated T+” Buy It Now Related shopping tags: ALEX ROSS (CA), HULK, HULK (BRUCE BANNER), HULK FAMILY TITLES

Don’t let the mediocre film cloud your judgment of this franchise. This is some of Alan Moore’s best work. Must read stuff. “After an epic twenty-year journey through the entirety of human culture, Alan Moore and Kevin O’Neill conclude both their legendary League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and their equally legendary comic-book careers with the series’ spectacular fourth and final volume, ‘The Tempest.’ This six-issue miniseries is a celebration of everything comics were, are and could be. Opening simultaneously in the panic-stricken headquarters of British Military Intelligence, the fabled Ayesha’s lost African city of Kor and the domed citadel of ‘We’ on the devastated Earth of the year 2996, the dense and yet furiously-paced narrative hurtles like an express locomotive across […]

Hmm, this looks exactly like what it’s titled–the fantasy role-play genre crossed with the modern world–a la ‘modern fantasy.’ I don’t know anything about the creators, but it looks like it could be worth a look. “A young Ranger woman who came to the city with dreams of adventure, her drug dealing reptilian wizard roommate, and her boisterous Dwarf maiden BFF embark on a modern day quest to save the world while struggling to keep their crappy day jobs and pay off their student loans. The roommates become embroiled in danger when one of their significant others finds himself taken by criminals, and the trio must save him. From the creator of Henchgirl. Rafer Roberts (AandA: The Adventures of Archer […]

Iron Man is back! Dan Slott did an ‘amazing’ job with Spider-Man over the last bunch of years. Let’s see what he has planned for Tony Stark! “TAKE FLIGHT WITH DAN SLOTT and VALERIO SCHITI.

Read the solicitation description of this one, and tell me this doesn’t sound somewhat important to the DC Universe as a whole. Interesting, for sure. “In the aftermath of DARK NIGHTS: METAL, the DC Universe has been forever changed as new heroes are called out of the shadows. Amid this all is Janet Fals…Firebrand. Once a paramedic dedicated to saving lives, she must now start a fight once every 24 hours to feed the Conflict Engine that’s replaced her heart. But Janet’s heart isn’t just a curse-it’s a beacon, drawing out both the mysterious Neon the Unknown and the seductive, malevolent Bad Samaritan. One of them wants to cut out her heart, the other wants to save it-but neither of […]

This is some crazy-looking, intriguing stuff from the likes of Neil Gaiman. “These dark and imaginative tales feature an odd and subtly linked world of bizarre venereal diseases, a creepy old woman who feasts on raw meat, a man obsessed with a skin model from a magazine, and a story within a story about ghosts. From Hugo, Eisner, Newbery, Harvey, Bram Stoker, Locus, World Fantasy, and Nebula award-winning author Neil Gaiman and his longtime, Eisner award-winning collaborator Mark Buckingham (Fables) comes a graphic novel not to be missed.” Buy It Now Related shopping tags: NEIL GAIMAN (W)
