Perusing Platinum
I was hopping around the internet highways and biways and one thing led to another and I landed at Platinum Studios again. The question that usually goes through my mind is, "Are they dead yet?" They have had a lot of negative publicity in the past, but have been quite dormant for awhile, at ...

Bad Comic Book Movies
I finally got around to seeing X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Having two kids will do that to you. There was a lot that I enjoyed, but probably more that I disliked. This made me think of another comic book movie I saw via Netflix recently - The Specials . It was weird that I had never heard of it. ...

Cover of the Week: Two-Fer
It's a two-fer this week. Two titles caught my eye, one funny and one serious. The funny one is Amazing Spider-Man #611 featuring Spidey in a Cable-esque garb alongside Deadpool. The second comes from Booster Gold #26 and features Booster's buddy Ted Kord as the Black Lantern. Both are great ...

Cover of the Week - Captain America Reborn #4
I always try to not let my personal bias enter into things like this, but this time I had to. I really dug this cover by Bryan Hitch with Cappy wielding his WW2 shield. It's a classic Cap pose and is a very dynamic cover. To be fair, there were some other great covers this week. Of special ...

TeraPeak Ebay Market Research Data
I have often used eBay to find what I call a "real-time value" for a comic book, in other words, what that comic is going for right now and what you can expect to get if you sell a similar item. Sites like Comic Seeker have gone a step further, giving you the capability to search through many ...

Comic Seeker
comicbooks.about.com — I found this website in a Google Alert of mine lately. Its called Comic Seeker and it claims to be the place to, "Search the internet for rare collectible comic books." Basically what Comic Seeker does is search through many different sites so you ... (more) Comic Seeker
Cover of the Week - Arkham Reborn #1
Hands down, Arkham Reborn #1 is such a wonderful beauty. Frazer Irving nailed this cover of the puzzled character of Dr. Jeremiah Arkham, with Joker showing through. Who is in control of Arkham? Image Copyright DC Comics Cover of the Week - Arkham Reborn #1 originally appeared on ...

Super Meat Boy Comic
I love how comics are used to promote other items. It might be a movie, action figure, or even a video game. Meat Boy is a popular flash game that one can play on many online game sites. The developers of the game are apparently going to launch a new game entitled " Super Meat Boy " in the ...

The Digital Age Of Comics Is Now!
It would seem that the digital revolution is almost upon us. I saw a blog post over at www.theappleblog.com about a possible alliance between Longbox , the digital downloading initiative brainchild of Rantz Hoseley, and the upcoming Apple reader tablet. I would imagine this deal would include ...

Cover Of The Week: Cowboy Ninja Viking #1
With a title like Cowboy Ninja Viking, a comic fan just has to check it out. While this might not be the best cover from a purely art standpoint, it certainly was one of the most striking one, capitalizing on its over the top title. Image Copyright Image Comics Cover Of The Week: Cowboy ...
