Worst Comics of the Decade – Ultimatum

by on Dec.18, 2009, under Events, Marvel, Reviews, Ultimate Comics

Now that the decade is about to end, the Comicgasm staff will walk you through the worst comics of 2000-2009 and why they suck.

ultimatum

Ultimatum is what happens when you get Magneto to reverse the magnetic poles, flood New York, and practically kill half the superhuman population. He’s killing people because A ROBOT WHO FELL IN LOVE WITH THE SCARLET WITCH KILLED HER, SPARKING A BATTLE THAT ULTIMATELY KILLED QUICKSLIVER TOO. Everybody goes crazy and THEY KILL ONE ANOTHER IN THE BLOODIEST, MESSIEST, AND CRAPPIEST WAY POSSIBLE because this is a realistic world and it’s grim and gritty, right? Also, throw in some characters who EAT CORPSES JUST FOR THE HECK OF IT even though they’ve never shown any signs of cannibalism before. (continue reading…)

KomiKon Week at Comicgasm!

Hello there boys and girls! This is RJ and Ade reporting once more with another joint post! As any comic book geek worth his or her salt knows, yesterday just so happened to be the most important day to any comic enthusiast, especially the ones with a fondness for local comics. Yesterday was KomiKon 2009! Huzzah!

[RJ: Okay Ade, that opening paragraph was just horrible, you see. It's fucking cheesy. That is one big-ass run on sentence. Also, it came off as a bit gay.

ADE: What- whatever RJ, you get to have your name first in the introduction even though I wrote that shit. Fag.]

<this is the part where you write something, RJ>

Okay, so the Comicgasm crew [that’s me and three other guys… wut] and I [The only one who actually went to Komikon... wut] will be doing a week-long event to commemorate our local komiks[and hopefully get free stuff from them... wut].

Also, even though Ade wasn’t able to attend the said event, he was able to lay his grubby hands on a copy of Go-Beerkada. Aside from the obligatory half-assed review (something the Comicgasm crew should totally stop Ade from doing), [ ADE: GODDAMMIT RJ WHAT ARE YOU INSERTING IN MY BEAUTIFUL PARAGRAPH NO I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT YOUR DICK] he’s also going to talk at length about how a friend of his embarassed himself in front of Lyndon Gregorio [RJ: WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR FRIEND WE'RE DOING COMICS HERE NOT REAL LIFE OKAY IT'S MY TURN]

Ok, before we drive all our readers away… We’ve decided to make several Komikon-related posts and reviews. Here’s what’s gonna happen in the next few days :

  • RJ will write about cosplay [Correction, Costrip. THERE WAS NO COSPLAY EVENT! DAMN WEEABOOS!], about the event itself and will review Kubori Kikiam and Kiko Machine
  • Fiel and David will be reviewing Trese: Mass Murders and Bayan Knights #3 [FIEL & DAVID: Um, we are? Wait, we don't even have Wave accounts! How is this even possible!]
  • And Ade, the something something of the something something <insert penis joke here>, will be reviewing Go-Beerkada and Komikero Anthology #3
  • Up next should totally be a closing paragraph.

So yeah, people. Please do enjoy as we take you to a crazy ride through KomiKon week! Also, if the entry’s schizoprenic nature is confusing you, please note that this was the first-ever Comicgasm post written in Google Wave! Yep, what you are reading right is now a little piece of comic book blogging history. [RJ: Comic book blogging history? Is there even such a thing? ADE: I'm winging it here, man.]

And before we end up killing each other this post, we’d like to thank the Komikon organizers for making this event happen! See you next year!

P.S. I think we’ve confused the reader well enough.

P.P.S. Stop dicking around in Wave, Ade RJ.

P.P.P.S. MABUHAY ANG PEKPEK!

Why my wallet hates me: Planet X Anniversary, Komikon 09 and Comic Quest 3-Day Sale

by on Oct.15, 2009, under Events, Indie, Real Life stuff

I’ve been emo and single for the past 5 days, only reason I’m posting is because Ade and Fiel threatened to steal my alcohol collection if I dont(they know where I live). But I realized that there’s no better way to keep my state of denial than distracting myself with geeky hobbies(and alcohol). And what do we have here? THREE comic book events this weekend? Why must you do this to me? WHY?

planet x comics anniversary event

Due to Typhoon Pepeng, this event has been postponed and moved to 17 October 2009 with same time schedule.   I’ll be wearing my Red Lantern shirt, feel free to invade my personal space.
