Marvel Announces The Age Of The Sentry

Categories: Marvel, New Releases, Thoughts

One of the bigger subjects lately in our weekly Comic Book Roundtable has been The Sentry and his involvement in the current Secret Invasion taking place in the Marvel Universe. Having been a fan of the character since he first appeared in New Avengers a couple of years ago, I've been hoping for a solo series that would give fans of the Sentry, such as myself, a little bit more info on the character and his history. Looks like we Sentry fans ... Read More

A Couple DC Tidbits

Categories: DC, New Releases, Thoughts

After DC's "Women in DC" poster, Comics Worth Reading decided to hold a contest asking people to enter a poster of the men in DC. I've got to say that this is my favorite: Drawn by J. Caleb Mozzocco, what I personally love about this one is that there are villains that not only are looking like they're ready to take over the world with huge dinosaurs and a huge ray gun, but I love the penciled-in coloring! Reminds me of when I ... Read More

Review: Final Crisis #1

Categories: Comic Reviews, DC

The wait is finally over. Final Crisis hit shelves this week and began what has been described as one of the biggest and greatest DC stories ever written.

Jones, whose work has included Wonder Woman and 52, is there even a slight chance that Final Crisis can fail or is it destined to become another classic piece of DC history and ... Read More

Categories: DC, New Releases, Thoughts

So, contrary to my original argument that Wally West would be taken down in the opening issue of Final Crisis, Martian Manhunter, just like Grant Morrison said in the panel at NYCC, has fallen instead. Wait, let me get this straight. The writer of the biggest DC story of the year actually spilled the beans on the big death in the series that he was writing over one month in advance to the comic's actual release? You betcha! Regardless of how little sense ... Read More

Last week, I showed off a list of twenty-two DC villains that needed to be voted on to see which eight would make it into the tournament ladder. It's now time to introduce the twenty twenty-one Marvel villains, eight of which ... Read More
