KRUSTY THE CLOWN [2018]

Thank you very much…and we’ll be needing a lot more than one-shot of Krusty The Clown! “Krusty the Clown finds himself alone and wandering the empty streets of Springfield, not a friend, neighbor, debt collector, or annoying fan in sight. All that he is left with are his memories of a life in showbiz lived to the fullest-a little song, a little dance, and a little seltzer down his pants. But where did all the people go? It would appear that he is the Laugh Man on Earth.” Buy It Now Related shopping tags: SIMPSONS

BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER: GILES [2018] #1

Joss Whedon himself writes a new Buffyverse mini-series about Buffy Summers’ mentor and surrogate father figure…Rupert Giles. The Buffyverse is still going strong in comic book form! “From Joss Whedon and Erika Alexander comes a series that returns Buffy’s Rupert Giles to high school. But this time–as a grown man living in a teenage body–Giles will be a student instead of a teacher. At an inner-city LA-area school, when a mystical influence is detected and teachers start to go missing, Giles enrolls to investigate. What he finds is more than vampires and demons; something unusual and frightening is happening here. If Giles can get through one day as a student, he’ll have a chance to find out who, what, and […]

X-MEN: RED [2018] #1 Comic Book Cover

Another ongoing X-Men title! The team is a perfect mix of old heads and greenhorns: Jean Grey, Nightcrawler, Namor, Wolverine (Laura Kinney), a Wakandan mutant named Gentle, one of Laura’s clone sisters named Gabby, and a brand new character named Trinary. Jean Grey leads the new team of X-Men in a story that will feature “new uniforms, a new team headquarters, and exciting new characters,” as well as “dynamic hero moments, great character interactions, and a surprise villain at the end.” I’m actually pretty excited for this one. I really like how they’ve mixed seasoned X-Men with fresh meat. “The Hate Machine Part 1 THE FIRST SENSATIONAL ARC OF AN ALL-NEW TEAM OF X-MEN STARTS HERE. JEAN GREY is back. […]

INHUMANS: JUDGEMENT DAY [2018] #1

The ‘Inhumans’ experiment is out of control, and that’s a great thing for a more rich and interesting Marvel Universe. “THE INUMANS FACE THE WRATH OF THEIR CREATORS. The Royal Family has spent months tracking down Primagen, the element that birthed Terrigen and could save the Inhuman race from its slow extinction. But to get it, they confronted the Progenitors – beings older than the Earth itself. They stole fire from the gods. And the gods are angry. The fate of planet Earth once again sits in Black Bolt and Medusa’s hands. The Progenitors are here to end their experiment once and for all – and our world with it. Who will be able to stand…on Judgment Day? Rated T+” […]
