Broken Trinity #3 - Review

By Ron Marz (Writer), Stjepan Sejic (Art), and Phil Hester (Art)
Some Thoughts Before The Review: In a market crowded by event books, I have found myself pleasantly surprised by Top Cow’s Broken Trinity crossover. It has proven that an epic, satisfying crossover event can be told in under six months and without dozens of tie-ins. [...]

Broken Trinity #2 - Review

By Ron Marz (Writer), Stjepan Sejic (Art), and Phil Hester (Art)
First, a quick note. Now that I’ve read the first two chapters of Top Cow’s Broken Trinity crossover, I find myself absolutely baffled as to why the story is being limited to three main books and two tie-ins (one of which is a prequel and [...]

The Darkness #5 - Capsule Review

By Phil Hester (Writer), Michael Broussard (Pencils), Ryan Winn (Inks), and Sheldon Mitchell (Colors)
I am generally not a fan of shock-value, but the latest issue of the Darkness shows how it can be correctly delivered in service to a compelling story. All things come to a head this month as Jackie and his “team” come [...]

Witchblade #120 - Capsule Review

By Ron Marz (Writer) and Stjepan Sejic (Artist)

San Diego Comic-Con 2008 - Report!

* I decided not to attend many of the TV or movie panels due to extremely long lines and waiting time. I knew that most of the footage would appear online in some way or another. NBC, SCI-FI channel (amongst others) have complete panel videos. Xbox Live has clips and I set my DVR for [...]
