FRIDAY NEWPOST - "FanService" and Sexy Ladies in Comics
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Sept. 12, 2014
There's been a bit of a kerfuffle recently over an almost ridiculously sexy Spider-Woman cover drawn by Milo Manara.

HippieVan at 12:00AM, Sept. 5, 2014
Often when I'm trying to introduce a friend or family members to graphic novels (or I'm trying to convince them that comics can have more substance than Archie or Superman), I will gift them a copy of something by Guy Delisle. For those of you not familiar with ...

FRIDAY NEWSPOST - Comic Book Movies
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Aug. 8, 2014
Apparently the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie is coming out right about now. While the explosion-filled trailer I saw for it (before the equally explodey Transformers 4) made up my mind that I won't be seeing this particular movie, comics have been the inspiration for some great films.
