Book of the Week: Secret Invasion #5

August 19th, 2008 · Comments

Okay.  I was down on this series when it first started, but after 5 issues and several tie-ins, I am sold.  If you haven’t been following the series before this issue, its time you too jumped on the band wagon as I did.  None of that messiness you’ll find in another series that won’t [...]

Quick Review: X-Files I Want to Believe

July 28th, 2008 · Comments

I want to believe too.  That this movie was going to be stellar.  But it turns out to be just one supersize episode.  For most X-Philes, that would be enough.  However, 10 years would seem to be enough time for Chris Carter to come up with an amazing script and story worthy of the big [...]

Newsorama has posted the trailer for the Black Panther animated series that’s coming to BET.  It looks promising.  I kinda like the animation style.  But I still have my doubts about BET’s animation division getting this right.
