Gates of Midnight Last weekend, at the Long Beach Comic Book Convention, I was able to look around at the various indie comics that other creators had to offer. There were many to choose from, so much that I had a hard time deciding which I’d like to take home and read. I finally made…Read more

Comic Book Review: The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive #1n1
I have mentioned before that I’m a sucker for a good story. That being said, story endings are my true weakness. A good ending can be very hard to write so when I watch or read a story that has a clean and powerful ending that sells me, I’ll always care about it. For that…Read more

Comic Book Review: Spawn #1
While growing up, there was a limit… only a certain type of comic that I had been exposed to. These comic books were purely superhero in nature.
