This week I talk about the first Warren Ellis comic to get a movie adaptation, and then offer a post-mortem on the imprint it came from.

"Crossed," "Old Man Logan," and "The Dark Tower:  The Battle of Jericho Hill."  One of these I really liked.  The other two... not so much.

Or:  Manga from people who aren't Japanese.  Grab yourself some popcorn and a drink, this one's a monster.

They're full of epic, ambitious sci-fi superhero action, and a few examples of how NOT to tell a story in a multi-title crossover.

Much better than you'd expect from something that's the licensed spin-off of a licensed spin-off.

I almost called this one "The Blackcast."  Then common sense intervened.

If you want to see how art can truly trump writing, here's your answer.

Because not only can I not stop talking about this series, we've seen a lot of it this year as well.

In a move that should surprise no one, I talk about another comic book character who has a movie coming out this weekend.

In which I call robot BS on Naoki Urasawa's update of the classic Tezuka Astro Boy story.
