Alert: DR. MCNINJA NEEDS YOUR HELP!
Mar. 18th, 2013 03:33 pmOK gang, here's the skinny: one of my favourite webcomics (and, arguably, one of the greatest in existence) is in trouble. Chris Hastings of The Adventures of Dr McNinja has found that he owes his webhost $1400 due to an unfortunate computing error, and he's relying on his beloved readers to help him out. If he can't make that payment by Friday, the website is shut down.
As I said: Dr. McNinja is one of my favourite webcomics, it's in the middle of a really interesting storyline and it doesn't deserve to end this way. Go directly to the site and you'll find a PayPal button in his blog-post on the subject. Every little bit helps.
Plus, because Chris is such a great guy, he's offered this great cast wallpaper as an incentive - FREE.

An odd couple for the 21st century

HAPPY!, Grant Morrison and Darick Robertson's new Image Comics project, debuted this week.
One's a grim 'n' gritty hitman scumbag, the other's... not.

You just don't say it, Spider.
Feb. 15th, 2012 12:02 amI am feeling neither cute nor romantic this week. Hence this offering of 2.3 pages from Transmetropolitan #6: text by Warren Ellis, art by Darick Robertson. Some NSFW language.
This is the "religion" issue, which explains why Spider is wearing his idea of prophetic garb. He and his filthy assistant Channon are on their way to do the journalism thing at a religious gathering. Channon mentions her boyfriend, and Spider comes back with "Ziang doesn't love you even a bit, and will vanish out of your life the very second he gets bored."
( Channon's response: )

The Boys 51
Mar. 18th, 2011 10:36 amI'll be honest. My interest in this title has been waning lately ever since the fallout between Hughie and Butcher. But based on this issue's involvement with Vought American, I think Garth Ennis is about to bring things to a head. Which, if you ask me, has been a long time in coming.

Nightcrawler and Mephisto

We all know what happened when Mephisto made a bargain with Spider-Man...but what happens when he tries his luck with a certain furry blue elf?

So, I made up this collage for my Tumblr and I figured I'd share it with all of you, s_d!

The Garth Ennisverse
Jul. 30th, 2010 04:37 pmI'm a pretty big fan of Garth Ennis, and over the course of reading most of his work, I've noticed that he's been pulling a Stephen King relatively recently. Despite the fact that many of his series are in different genres and published by different companies, they all seem to take place in their own odd and contiguous sub-continuity.
If I was Philip Jose Farmer, I could probably turn this into something huge and meaningful, since it means, among other things, that Ennis's Punisher is set in the Vertigo version of the DCU.
I plan to follow up on that with another post, but for now, this is as close as we'll probably ever get to a sequel to Preacher.
( One page from Preacher #8; two pages from The Boys #27 )

From Punisher vs. Wolverine
Feb. 18th, 2010 07:26 amI think we can start a counter for the amount of times Wolverine has suffered something like this.

One of my favorite DC couples is Guy and Tora. I don't know why, but there's just something so frickin' adorable about the couple. And this story, from Justice League Quarterly, is one of my favorite stories concerning them.

The Authority vs. "Cthulhu"
Jan. 16th, 2010 10:37 pmSo as of the end of last issue, the Carrier's out of juice, stranding the Authority on an Earth that's latched onto a slumbering Lovecraft-ian entity. What next?
