Kevin Smith kicks off the first arc of a HIT-GIRL series relaunch. If you’re wondering why Mark Millar isn’t writing HIT-GIRL, KICK-ASS and KINGSMAN, those properties weren’t included in the Netflix deal, and Millar is exclusive to the Netflix stuff. So, he’s farming out these other properties to the people he trusts to take care of them. If you weren’t wondering, then I just wasted a little bit of your time. Sorry. “NEW STORY ARC. ‘THE SILENT ERA,’ Part One Join film, podcast, and comics legend KEVIN SMITH (Green Arrow, Daredevil) and animation/illustration virtuoso PERNILLE ØRUM (DC Superhero Girls, Blush, Coral) for the glitz and gore of this all-new chapter of HIT-GIRL. Our favorite adolescent assassin tears Tinsel Town a […]

A fascinating story concept in this new series from Aftershock Comics and Phil Hester. Definitely worth checking out. “Our planet is actually a prison designed to both trap and shelter an amnesiac alien entity of incalculable power. Now known as Michael Grey, this cosmic angel of destruction currently believes himself to be an ordinary, midwestern insurance underwriter, who belongs to a global secret society dedicated to making sure he never discovers the truth about his past. To make matters worse, our hero has fallen in love with Michael Grey. And for their love to be born, Earth must die. Phil Hester (The Coffin, Deathstroke, The Darkness, SHIPWRECK) and Ryan Kelly (The Wicked and The Divine, Lucifer, Saucer Country) weave a […]

Jack Kirby’s Fourth World continues to live on today. Check out this nifty-looking mini-series starring the toughest women of Apokolips…the FEMALE FURIES! “All their lives the Female Furies have been raised to be the meanest, most cunning and most ruthless fighting force on all of Apokolips. So why are Granny Goodness’ girls left behind every time the men go to war? With the might of New Genesis hanging over the planet, and the Forever People making mincemeat out of Darkseid’s army, Granny thinks it’s about time that changed.

Mark Millar launches another sharp, new mini-series under his Netflix umbrella agreement. SHARKEY THE BOUNTY HUNTER looks great as a story with gorgeous-looking art from Simone Bianchi. I’m pretty excited about this one…and it’s already slated for a Netflix movie adaptation! I always remember that Millar said all his stories take place in the same ‘universe,’ but this one seems pretty hard to imagine it fits in smoothly. “MINISERIES PREMIERE Set in a brilliant new sci-fi universe, Sharkey is a blue-collar bounty hunter who tracks criminals across the galaxy in his converted, rocket-powered ice-cream truck. Aided and abetted by his ten-year-old partner, he’s out for the biggest bounty of his career.” Buy It Now Related shopping tags: MARK MILLAR (W), […]
