Wizard World Chicago has been the home to a number of announcements over the past couple days, most of which I’ve covered in the forums, but none have been nearly as important to me personally as the announcement that Billy Tan, known for his work on Uncanny X-Men, will be joining writer Brian Michael Bendis [...]
Review: New Avengers #1
With my comics delayed until tomorrow, there’s no Secret Invasion #3 review. Instead, let’s take a peek at the first issue of Bendis’ New Avengers title from 2004.
Reviews - New Avengers #39 / Mighty Avengers #11
It’s been a long time since both New and Mighty Avengers were released on the same day. It’s also been a long time since New Avengers wasn’t terribly painful for me to read.

There’s already a number [...]
