He's an Inhuman but like the others of his race, he really doesn't have any powers with the exception of being able to see the weak points in everything

Now only if they could have done this with their other comics. But yes, I will definitely be purchasing Wrath Of The Eternal Warrior the day it comes out with this in mind

All I've honestly read is Turok and yes, I can say without any doubt that the character is faithfully interpreted in his VH1 version

I love the original Dell comics Turok a lot and it's a shame that it hasn't been reprinted like it's Gold Key counterpart

Divinity has re-invented Valiant in more ways than one This is exactly why I would like to see Valiant putting out completely original material in the next five years that isn't constrained to follow guidelines set 20 something years ago. While Divinity is retracing some steps put forth by Solar, i...

Interestingly enough, I never really liked Guardians of the Galaxy, although I think I need maybe one issue to complete my 90's run. The only Marvel Cosmic title that I've never particularly cared for was Nova, probably because I was expecting something from the book that just wasn't there, namely ...

Well, now here's my question: Do we know for sure that it's Jack or is it Zero from the Acclaim universe?

He looks like a mixture of the Joker from the 2004 "The Batman" cartoon and Bane, and I don't mean that as a complement

So after reading some of Quasar, Mar-Vell, and Silver Surfer, I've kind of gotten bitten by the Marvel Cosmic bug and with interest in this particular area of the Marvel Universe growing thanks in part to the Guardians Of The Galaxy film, I figured it might be ripe for discussion What I like so much...

I'm interested so long as it isn't Survivor mixed with the current "who has the nanites in them now?" arc

This is wonderful news considering how expensive the old Marvel Epic editions are these days

Sounds like they plan to explore some of the New Universe-centric stuff with these characters. Maybe even bring in some other NU concepts/characters. I'd pay money for that, at least for a bit, even if the general format didn't excite me. If they get enough support, maybe some other NU material/cha...

How Saga is this popular when it doesn't even have that much in the way of an engaging plot, story, or characters makes little sense to me. Though it could be due to how the majority it's reader base isn't all that familiar with comics. I'm not knocking it, there's just far better examples out there...

I don't think Bob Layton was enthused by Valiant when it came back. I think he was quite critical. I've said this before, Valiant is a great company with a great vision and great characters. The problem lies in whether or not the characters are being properly used by the writers they're assigned to...

You know, it's your money and please feel free to do with it as you please, but why on earth would you buy a case of 200 issues of the same comic?

With how great this mini has been (I'd even go so far as to claim that it's even better than The Valiant), it deserves it

I've said it before and I'll say it again, while I very much welcome "strong female character who don't need no man #2,000,437", you should not make a character a certain gender or race just for the sake of appeasing some socio-political movement

We already have Dr. Mirage and Livewire

V for Vendetta I honestly liked the movie better. :? Oops, was I supposed to say that? Every time I try to read it, I cannot help but wonder if I'm just not smart enough to read Alan Moore's writing. I'm typically not a fan of Moore's writing. I don't mind Moore's writing, it's just that V for Vend...

I'm calling it now, Rampage makes his grand re-debut next issue

Is it going to have the same amount of issues as the X-O Omnibus or do we know?

In April, I made a thread dedicated to my recent discovery and enjoyment of Franco-Belgian comics. I was unfortunately naive in thinking that there were no other comics outside this particular spectrum as I began reading Italian (Paperinik New Adventures) and Spanish (Hombre) books. It's still very ...

Frankly, I'm rather surprised that Boom!, Dynamite, and Titan even have that big of a market share to begin with

I doubt even Secret Weapons would be enough to save Unity from being scrutinized as a half-baked team book

What I like so much about Geoff is his deep love for DC's history, which rivals Morrison's
