What is Bad Idea? Bad Idea is an exciting new comics publisher made up of the best creators and editorial staff in the industry. What’s so special about them? Well, because I’m lazy, I’ll let their own ad copy speak for them: Here’s the deal: Beginning in March 2021, you’ll be getting at least one […]
Batman #66W: Tom King, A: Jorge Fornes, Dave Stewart We now return you to your regularly scheduled programming. There’s no denying that the timing of the recent The Price crossover was…unfortunate, at best, completely breaking the flow of the already weird Knightmares for a month. But now we’re back, and I’m given cause to reiterate what I said […]
Hi, everybody! Brief note to kick this off, since this is the first one – My Life in the Bush of Comics (or MLitBoC – pronounced M’lit’Bokh like it’s Klingon) is going to be my space to talk about the books I’m reading week to week. Everyone knows I can’t possibly read everything coming out […]

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Two books again this week. I can’t say for sure yet whether this will become the norm, but right now the comic industry is just so bursting with wonderful things, it’s hard to pick just one book to talk about each week.

Ivan Brandon has been waiting quite some time for his due. For years, he’s been saddled with various books that were ill-fated from the start, from tie-in miniseries like Final Crisis Aftermath: Escape and X-Men: Nation X to a couple of “big chance” books like the New 52’s Men of War that unfortunately went nowhere. […]
Greg Pak is one of the great mysteries in the world of comics. Like a lot of people, I first discovered him through the now-classic Planet Hulk storyline, and loved every minute of it. This was the work of a strong new voice in comics, someone who was able to take an old concept straight […]
So, it’s been a few years since I last wrote any of these reviews. But for those with particularly long memories, you may recall that the last one I wrote here was for the first issue of a fledgling indy title called Harbinger. Now, here we are, many moons later, and the initial reservations I […]
Throughout the history of comics (and, really, this holds true for any media), there always have been, and always will be, books that are big simply because of a particular character, or because “The Hype” got hold of them, or whatever the case may be. It seems like this is even more the case right […]
