This was written for Bleeding Cool and a version of it will appear there. I decided a while ago not to run the same article on both Bleeding Cool and ComicMix. Two different audiences is not the reason I write individual articles for each website. My voice remains the same regardless.
I write a different column for each because it’s an honor to write for each and both deserve an original effort from me. That is unless I happen upon a subject that I think is important enough to share on both.
Like… this one.
When I’m absent for lengthy periods of time, I feel it’s my responsibly to give you an explanation. I try to write what my readers will have a response to and not just what gets my goat. That doesn’t always work, but I do attempt to step back and breath a...

The two biggest topics at the Baltimore Comic Con Idw Panel were the continuation of the story arc for Walter Simonson’s Ragnarok, and the official announcement of James Tynion IV’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles / Batman crossover. Simonson and Tynion were on-hand to discuss their respective books while Idw President Greg Goldstein and Vice President of Marketing Dirk Wood acted as moderators.
Simonson provided a great deal of background information on Ragnarok, his alternate version of the Norse myth about the complete destruction of the universe including the gods and their enemies. His version involves the destruction of the gods, but because Thor is missing from the battle, the Midgard Serpent does not get killed, which changes the outcome of the battle and sees many of the Norse evil-doers still alive at the end of the fight. The world – really an amalgam of the Nine Worlds which have all...

Like many youth in 1988, the release of Tim Burton's Batman ushered in a renewed interest in reading the Dark Knight's comic book adventures. That summer, I borrowed stacks of Detective and Batman comics and devoured them in late night cramming sessions. Many of those comics were illustrated by Norm Breyfogle.
Breyfogle's Batman continues to be one of my favorite depictions of the character. His grim look and long ears remind me of how Bob Kane first envisioned and drew the Caped Crusader. Breyfogle also co-created Ratcatcher and Anarky, which are two of the most memorable super villains of the late 1980s.
When it was announced Breyfogle was providing the art for the digital series Batman Beyond Unlimited, I couldn't have been more excited. Now it's been released in a collected paperback edition entitled Batman Beyond Unlimited: 10,000 Clowns. Breyfogle got even more recognition when DC released a comic book preview...

In the DC Entertainment All Access Panel moderated by DC Senior VP of Sales Bob Wayne, fans learned about the latest development in the New 52 and beyond from some of the best and craziest creators. Beginning with summaries of Trinity War, Superman Unchained, and the new “Zero Year” storyline in Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s Batman, Wayne showed the covers of upcoming books and creators shared their insights.
Starting in Nightwing 22, Kyle Higgins said that Nightwing (newly relocated to Chicago) will continue to hunt out his parents’ murderer Tony Zucco while finding out the mystery behind the dead superheroes in Chicago and fighting former Superman foe Prankster. Swamp Thing 22 begins the “Whiskey Tree” storyline by Charles Soule and Kano in which Swamp Thing travels to a small town in Scotland that has become rich because of a tree which has scotch whiskey in its roots. John Constantine will guest...

Superman. Embodying truth, justice, and the American way. Hey, it’s not Superman’s fault if “the American way” now includes virulent misogyny. John Gholson at Gutters & Panels: Some Thoughts on 'Injustice' #3 aka the One Where Superman Punches Lois Lane to Death ... [S]omewhere, some editor (Jim Chadwick, editor of Injustice?) is wringing his hands with glee, thinking, "This is exactly why we allowed it! We want to get people talking about comics!" Well, that's all fine and good, but how about we do it without resorting to the most pure fictional symbol of Truth, Justice, and the American Way slugging a woman in the gut so hard that she leaves the Earth's atmosphere? There's a lot of discussion about sexism in comics and video games, and hooray - DC gets to be a part of that discussion now, on the totally wrong side of it, by promoting their upcoming video game with a story that,...
