I came to enjoy Stargate later than the other “Star” franchises (to crib a phrase from The Simpsons’ Comic Book Guy); I’ve never been a big fan of the movie, and when SG-1 moved from Showtime to the Sci-Fi Channel, I was about to start college, so I had plenty of other demands on the…
The Kingpin’s unexpected journey into becoming some kind of necromancer continues at breakneck speed this month! That definitely wasn’t part of the plan when I started working on this comic, but the further into it I get, the more the Kingpin’s control issues assert themselves in my characterization of him. Wilson Fisk subscribes to the…
Raul Julia’s performance as M. Bison in Street Fighter (1994) is one of those towering, improbably perfect performances in movie history. I don’t say “improbable” because he hadn’t proven himself time and again to be one of the grandest actors alive (name a performance where he wasn’t giving 120% – you can’t do it), but…
I’ve gone on record several times – on this very website, even – that The Death and Return of Superman is, and probably always will be, my favorite comics event. I might even go as far as to call it my favorite story, except that it’s really a lot of stories swirling around one gigantic,…
Probably not surprising: this month’s comic has far fewer parallels to my own life experience than the previous installments. Daredevil’s story and mine were bound to diverge eventually; it’s a little surprising it didn’t happen before he fights a literal demon from hell on top of a skyscraper in a thunderstorm. Believe it or not,…
Welcome back to another installment of my new Daredevil story! I’m still really pleased with how the first part came out, but I think the panel layouts flow a little better this time (especially from one page to the next), and I think I did a better job of channeling Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin in his…
Full disclosure: I never really thought I was a Daredevil fan. I certainly admire a lot of Daredevil stories and artwork; it’s tough to enjoy the kinds of movies and comics that I enjoy without encountering the generally-agreed-upon peaks of Daredevil-ish-ness. For instance, there’s probably been enough written about Frank Miller’s run on the comic…
Welcome back to part three of Endor’s Shadow, the part of the tale where the inescapable Star Wars threat rears its gigantic spherical head again! Star Trek has the Borg, and Star Wars has the Death Star! If you’re reading this comic on the day it goes live, I feel obliged to take a second…
It took a couple of months to return to my latest Star Wars comic story (go back and read the first installment, if you haven’t – I think it’s pretty good!), so I hope the second episode of Endor’s Shadow was worth the wait! I spent a lot of time trying to refine my spaceship…
I took these Mobius and Loki photos when my wife and I were out of town, a while back, and I haven’t had the time to do anything with them until recently. It’s a low-stakes adventure, as toy comics in the Phil Wrede Marvel Action Figure Comic Universe go, but I can hear Owen Wilson…
