We at Comicgasm feel that geekery has permeated all facets of pop culture by now. We see comic book movies dominate the summer box office, nerd-oriented shows air on TV, and it’s very rare that you find a single person with no knowledge at all of one single comic book character. With this, it’s not surprising at all to find musicians everywhere writing ballads for their favorite comic book characters. Every Monday, we at Comicgasm are going to feature a song from our favorite nerd rock musicians.

Kirby Krackle stands out from most nerd-rock bands because, aside from writing really good lyrics, they are actually good musicians. Their catchy hooks and technical riffs really stand out, and if you listen to their songs without paying attention to the lyrics, you’d think this is some regular rock band playing on mainstream radio stations. Aren’t you glad they’re writing songs about Wolverine, the Transformers, Green Lantern, and The Great Lakes Avengers?

Here’s their latest single, Super Powered Love, off the album of the same name. This may not talk about a particular superheroine, but this is a great nerdy song just the same. Enjoy!

Oh look! We finally have a comic review that actually gets published on time! Well, whaddaya know! This has been a pretty rockin’ week, so protect your faces, because Sentry’s going to punch your teeth in if you don’t behave!

And now, on to the reviews! (continue reading…)

Oh look, it’s Friday, and that means us Comicgasm monkeys have to write reviews to satisfy your comic book urges! Even if our reviews are a day late so it really won’t mean anything because I’m pretty sure you’ve already read these issues and our opinions would be pretty much superfluous! How’s this for a filler intro!

First, apologies for the lack of articles. You see, RJ, Fiel and I have been stuck in the mountains of Tibet where we discovered a secret tribe of hot Tibetan women. The welcome fellatio we received from them was so intense this blog actually stopped churning updates.

To make it up for you, Lady Bullseye and I have set up this little slapstick routine, where one of us ends up with a concussion…

Thanks for taking one for the team, Lady Bullseye! (continue reading…)
