Welcome back! Don't forget to subscribe to the Comicgasm RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

I totally forgot I was actually writing for this here blog for a while. Heh. Sorry about that. Now I’ll be updating Comicgasm with the help of my spiffy new laptop, so you can expect me to post here more frequently! Yay?

Siege #1

Finally! We’re at the end of Dark Reign, and we get to see Norman Osborn’s fall from grace. He and Loki engineer a disaster that rivals the Stamford incident in Civil War, and we see Osborn assembling the Dark Avengers and the entire freaking Initiatve taking on the floating city of Asgard.

Ade here, taking a break from reformatting my PC to bring you this week’s most delayed reviews!

Amazing Spider-Man #611

See how much a comic improves once it forgets about the Clone Saga? Read the rest of this entry »

Welcome back traveller! Let me, Ade, treat you to this week’s unbelievably-late-but-still-ass-kicking reviews, brought to you only by Comicgasm.

Ok, Black Mask, let’s see some of that pimp hand you’re famous for.

Batman #692

This is Tony Daniel’s first Batman issue. I’m really not too keen on reading his run on Batman because I’ve been left utterly unimpressed by Battle Of The Cowl.

And really, I am disappointed with this issue. There are quite a few problems with this issue – Daniel crammed way too many story threads. Read the rest of this entry »

Oh lookee. The Comicgasm monkeys have been all busy getting drunk and we’ve totally forgotten this little blog of ours. Oh well. Time to make the reviews then.

Ultimate Comics Spider-Man #2

I’ve mostly avoided the Ultimate Universe, but after Loeb did his best to destroy said universe, I thought, well, it can only get better after this. Read the rest of this entry »

Okay, so this is the first time I’ll ever do a review for Comicgasm. I spend two weeks here doing nothing but stall, copy Chris Sims, take comic book panels out of context, and make the occasional gay joke or two. It’s time I write something real here.

Okay this is my pull list for this week:

Justice League: Cry For Justice #2

Man, this is NOT a good book.

James Robinson has been one of my favorite writers. And who doesn’t love the way he turned Krypto into the awesome super pet sidekick he’s supposed to be? I was so excited for this book ever since it was announced.

The art is as always, gorgeous, and I’m waiting for the concept of a proactive superhero team to work, without it becoming too violent and X-treme (X-Force, no matter how awesome you’ve been, you remind me too much of the Liefeld!90’s). Read the rest of this entry »

Hey kiddies, this uber uber late entry is all about me whining about the DC teams.

Firstly, Teen Titans!

Nothing really new. Same teen angst, same teen drama. Wonder Girl is still emo, somehow keeping the team from killing themselves with their wacky shenanigans. I’m really amused with Aquagirl openly hitting on Blue Beetle, I sense a catfight with Traci in the near future(YES PLZ). She also replaced Rose as the casually naked chick.
