The good people at Marvel sent me a .gif showing what God Loves, Man Kills might look like is Marcos Martin drew it instead of Brent Anderson. As I suspected, it continues to be beautiful. These are some variant covers in March if you want them. Otherwise, enjoy the pretty pictures. Press Release New York,…
Here are some of the things Krakoa’s newest resident aren’t: Gwen Stacy Deadpool The Batman Character Spoiler A character with any right to be as good as she is I am, of course, talking about Gwenpool, the alter-ego of Gwendolyn Poole, a comics fan from the real world who accidentally got brought into Marvel’s 616…
Gerry Duggan and Phil Noto are incredibly talented creators. That is without question. What is in question is the fascination with taking a grizzled war vet and making him young and hot. Marvel did it with X-Man in the 90s and they continue to do it will teen Cable. Old Man Cable, of course, was…

The Xavier Institute has a long history of, questionable educational accreditation. Regardless of that, Magik is apparently qualified to teach in STRANGE ACADEMY #1. Or maybe not, frankly we have one, out of context image. Skottie Young and Humberto Ramos, no strangers to teams of teens with abilities have created a new cast of kids…
