DC Comics is letting fans choose who will be the new leader of the Legion of Superheroes but unless you’re a major nerd, you probably don’t know who half the candidates are (just like real politics). Fortunately, there’s only one name you need to remember this November: Earth-Man, AKA Kirt Niedrigh. The Legion initially rejected Niedrigh, claiming his ability being to absorb powers was “too limited” but he knew real

As part of Breast Cancer Awareness Month the Sunday funny pages went pink to raise awareness… but little money. Donations have been underwhelming ($6,870.24), perhaps because no one reads newspapers any more. But you can read all the participating comics online @ comicsgopink.com and don’t forget to donate! You can even bid on the original promotional piece seen left, by Bizarro Cartoonist Dan Piraro

A very adult-looking Chloe Sullivan made her debut this week in Action Comics #839, but the makeover is more than skin-deep. Writer Nick Spencer explains that “She’s never existed in the comics before, so in order to make a part of Clark’s life when he was a teenager in Smallville, you’d have to do it somewhat retroactively, and it would age Chloe as a character a lot, since Superman is

The quintessential harem manga, Love Hina, returns with a 6 page one-shot! It appears to take place before Naru & Keitaro’s wedding, which was announced 5 years ago on creator Ken Akamatsu’s blog, unless Keitaro is still trying to graduate which wouldn’t surprise me. While soaking in the onsen, Kitsune asks Shinobu how far she’s gone with a boy on a scale of A – D, A being a kiss.

In her latest attempt to go straight, porn star Sasha Grey made her debut as Vince’s newest girlfriend on Entourage last night. “People are going to see different sides of me, and I want them to take me seriously,” says Grey. Not her good side unfortunately. While Perrey Reeves, who’s old enough to be Grey’s mom, was turning heads with her bottom, Grey came off as a prude. Even after

School’s out forever when zombies show up for class. But the undead aren’t the only pus heads hungry for the flesh of young girls – so are fanboys! After all, just because these girls are about to become zombie lunch, doesn’t mean they can’t be a sexy zombie lunch. Highschool of the Dead delivers with gratuitous amounts of fanservice. It’s not just warranted things like bouncing body parts or ripped

If you thought fishermen were upset about the BP oil spill, just wait until you see Aquaman’s response in Brightest Day #5. He doesn’t stop at just this one wayward well. Aquaman decides to shut down ALL offshore drilling arguing that “This fuel has done more damage than good to the world. It’s perpetuated war, greed, and corruption.” Ironically, some supervillains interrupt Aquaman’s transition from superhero to eco-terrorist. PHOTOSHOP DISCLOSURE:

In issue 600, Wonder Woman faces her most tyrannical opponent yet – the fashion police! A change in the time stream has the Amazon Princess growing up in America instead of Paradise Island, yet looking less American than ever. “The original costume was the American flag brought to life,” explains artist Jim Lee. “This one is a little more universal.” In truth, the only thing universal about it is the

This September Veronica will meet her match when the new kid in town rejects all her advances. Only Jughead knows that Kevin Keller is gay, and he’s having too much fun watching Veronica embarrass herself to tell her. “The introduction of Kevin is just about keeping the world of Archie Comics current and inclusive. Archie’s hometown of Riverdale has always been a safe world for everyone. It just makes sense

According to Google Adsense Terms of Service (TOS) simply linking to pornography (legal or not) is a violation, that is unless a website has enough traffic to make it worthwhile. Manga & anime (Japanese comics and cartoons) frequently involve characters of questionable age in sexual situations but there’s nothing ambiguous about the genres known as Lolicon and Shotacon, in which  clearly prepubescent girls and boys are blatantly sexualized. While no

The Sentry may have more than just “godlike” powers. Dark Avengers #13 reveals the secret origin of the Sentry and MOSES! In a flashback (circa 1600 BCE) we discover that the same dark entity which possesses Robert Reynolds possessed Moses. In fact, it was this “Void” that was responsible for the biblical plague that killed all the Egyptian firstborns, which means either Moses was a false prophet or God is

The Illuminati, a superhero cabal consisting of Iron Man, Mr. Fantastic, Doctor Strange, and Black Bolt, decide the Hulk is too dangerous and shoot him into space to live the rest of his life on an uninhabited planet. But the Hulk struggles and knocks the rocket off course, sending him through a wormhole to the planet Sakaar instead. Weakened from the trip, he is enslaved and forced to compete in

Ever wondered whose god would win in a fight? More importantly who would lose? “The man in the sky is not coming to save you,” is the premise behind Warren Ellis’ new mini-series Supergod. Amid a burning London, a scientist named Reddin recounts the superhuman arms race that ignited the Apocalypse. The superhumans aren’t evil per se.  In fact, the most dangerous ones are those that want to save us,

Just in time for Halloween there’s a brand new L7 World webcomic: American Dad – Halloween Special. At least I hope it’ll be done in time. What started as a 3 panel short on Klaus has turned into 10 spooktacular (yeah I said it) panels. Now I “just” have to scan them, do the line art, and color them (flash). So don’t expect any updates till that’s done. Oh and

This November the caped crusader trades in his utility belt for a gun belt in Batman/Doc Savage Special, a prologue to a 6-issue “pulp-influenced” miniseries by Brian Azzarello. This won’t be the first time Batman has packed heat but that was before his mythos was fully established so it’ll be interesting to see how Azzarello squares a gun toting hero with the gunning down of his own parents. And Batman’s
