Last week was kind of slow for me, and I think I only bought one book that wasn’t Countdown or the Book of Doom, so being unable to write a segue, I thought instead I would just bemoan the coming of Black Wednesday. Wednesdays are typically my favorite day of the week. At least they…
Hell Yeah! of the Week- She-Hulk explains to Tony Stark why he’s an asshole, She-Hulk #18 Iron Man is the biggest dick in the Marvel Universe. But for some reason, Marvel editorial still treats him as if he’s a hero. Finally someone has taken the time to rip Tony Stark a new one in a…
I was trying to think of a good joke to explain why I’m writing about a samurai on Memorial Day, but nothing came to mind. Maybe that’s because I’m pretty well drained after a 9+ hour drive to Nebraska for the first ever face-to-face meeting amongst we Doomers (word is, there’s a photo floating around…
Maybe you’ve seen this before. If so, good for you, just don’t rub it in our faces, you jerk! What was I saying? Oh, yeah, Ted Kord has been AWOL from comics ever since his brains met the tile floor in Dracula’s castle, unless you count that fake Ted Kord that showed up in Manhunter…
Welcome to this week’s edition of our weekly roundtable discussion of the newest issue of Wonder Woman, a tie-in to the current big event Amazons Attack! This week, the Legion is joined by special guest reviewer The Fortress Keeper from The Fortress of Fortitude. Overall, the issue seems to have caught all of us off…

I normally skip everything I ever see regarding statues of comic…
I don’t care how much they look like Doom DeLuise’s dad…the new JLA has never look better than it does on the cover to its twelfth issue. Of course, the alternative was Michael Turner, so poop smeared on a canvas would be a step up.
Howdy there, our little Doom Patrollers. I know you’ll all be crestfallen, but I’m going to be out of town the rest of the week and have no time for the weekly Worst to First roundup. To make up for it, I have a review of the new graphic novel The Other Side, a Vietnam…
I think my criticism against Countdown was a tad premature. I really enjoyed this issue. Whaddya say we run through the plot points real quick. Things open where they ended last time, with Killer Croc breaking free and attacking Jimmy Olsen, who pulls a Plastic Man and warps all out of place; The Monitors talk…
It’s that time of the week again. Time to choose this week’s Book of Doom. As you can tell by the title of this post, if you’re one of the types who actually reads headlines, we’ve decided to pick “Wonder Woman #9.” In case you haven’t been paying much attention to Wonder Woman lately, there’s…
