HeroesCon is almost upon us (June 15-17). I can’t believe it’s almost time to head back to comics summer camp! Just like every year, we’ll be there, and just like every year, Shelton Drum, Rico Renzi, Seth Peagler and the whole Heroes crew have curated an artist lineup and show that promises to be unforgettable. … Continue reading
HeroesCon is turning 35 this year, and though it’s always the comics show to beat every year, Shelton Drum, Rico Renzi, Seth Peagler, and the rest of the gang are pulling out all the stops to make this an epic anniversary celebration. No doubt I’m excited to once again return to what my friends have … Continue reading
I’ve been feeling internet-weary as of late. So much negativity exists, and it wears on me that people are so angry. Yes, most of it has been related to the new Ghostbusters, but it seems every day there is a new thing that fans are raging about. Look, I get being passionate about things you … Continue reading
Oh wow, you guys. This one is way late, so it will probably be photo-heavy. Last month, as we always do, we attended HeroesCon in Charlotte, NC. I am forever singing this convention’s praises for its dedication to comics and welcoming atmosphere, and this year is no different. Shelton Drum, Rico Renzi, Seth Peagler, and the … Continue reading
If you’re like me, you are anxiously awaiting this Friday’s release of Mad Max: Fury Road. I’ve been on board with this one ever since I saw the first trailer months ago.

To give you a little background, most of it was in response to discussions … Continue reading

This prompted her to start a Change.org petition to force the store to take the figures off their shelves because kids might want to … Continue reading
If you haven’t seen Bad Lip Reading, you may not have seen the phenomenon that is my new favorite song, “Carl Poppa”. I first became familiar with BLR when someone shared one of the NFL videos on Facebook, but it’s so much more than that. There are videos ranging from films like Twilight to shows like Game … Continue reading
If you were with me this time last year, you’ll recall that Afterlife with Archie was just getting underway, and we talked about Archie’s history with monsters. I was lucky enough to track down the first issue on my annual fall trek to Chicago, and I’ve been hooked ever since. Archie comics are how I learned … Continue reading
As you may (or may not) recall from last year, I participated in the annual “Bring Your Man-E-Faces to Work Day”. Man-E and I had such a great time, he wanted to do it again this year. Unlike last year, I worked from home, so he didn’t have far to go, but he still had … Continue reading
