"After a small, galaxy-sized battle in my heart…"

If you think of Thor when you hear the phrase “motion comics,” think again. Sure Thor is a motion picture based on a comic that’s based on a myth, and sure it’s pure fun to watch, but the world of motion comics is a whole other rodeo. Take The Angel: Motion Comic from writer/artist/creator Dean […]

I will gladly admit the Mundt Nerd-o-Meter is going all about haywire right now at the release of the trailer to X-Men: First Class. After the much loathed celluloid abortion that was X-Men Last Stand — Brett Ratner’s shameless taint-fiddling shit bomb — the X-Franchise desperately needed to get its stomach pumped from the toxic […]

The perfect gift for the imaginary girlfriend in your life

I have some very good news for the comic book geeks out there with girlfriends. And when I say girlfriend, I’m not counting anyone you communicate with strictly via keyboard. To celebrate their 75th anniversary, DC Comics have teamed up with nOir Jewelry for a collection inspired by the venerable comics powerhouse’s fiercest and most […]


I’ll be honest with you — I am NOT one of those people that delights in commercials showing babies acting like adults, or talking, or doing any of that bullshit. In fact I’ll admit I’m not a big fan of babies in general — I feel very frightened around their tender heads, like I’ll accidentally […]


With the exception of Christopher Nolan’s rebooted Batman franchise, Marvel has consistently kicked the everliving shit out of DC’s comic universe in film format. The Bryan Singer X-Men (1 & 2, not that Brett Ratner abomination) and Ironman alone slay the best of what DC’s managed to come out with, and that doesn’t even count […]
