Maybe your holiday shopping isn’t over, and you’re looking for that last-minute gift for your cousin come New Year’s Eve. Or maybe Santa was extra nice and slipped a few twenties in your stocking. Whatever the case, here are ten comic book and graphic novel ideas to fill that lonely space under the tree. Read about my picks here.
Three early reviews of Marvel comics are up at Impulse Creations this weekend. Catch a glimpse of Scarlet #3, Wolverine #3, and Iron Man Legacy #8. Too bad none of them end with issue 13, huh?
Today Marvel announced the upcoming Iron Man – Extremis DVD. While the press release made no mention of the motion comic, I’m guessing since Marvel Knights Animation’s name is attached, this is basically a mainstream release.
Iron Man blasts onto home entertainment shelves later this year … probably knocking out a wall or two with the sheer, unbelievable Repulsor force. Oh, yes. You’ll need these coming months to prepare.
Check out a trailer for the motion comic below. You can read about the DVD details here, at OneMetal.
This month’s Pilot feature at Impulse Creations puts the spotlight on the Daredevil: Black and White one-shot. Those interested can read about the comic here.
The Man without Fear falls back to older roots with the recent Daredevil: Black and White, which channels the Mighty Marvel Magazines of past. This one-shot pumps out three black-and-white stories, comprising thirty-two pages altogether, and combines the efforts of six different creators.
