  • Just got a note!

    Rob Ricochet sent me an AIM note: Just to let you know that I now use Monitor Duty as my homepage. It’s great as a ‘hub’ of sorts for all my regular sites. You just need to add popcultureshock.com onto the front. Thanks for the kind note, Rob! We hope to become the homepage for…

  • Making Sense of Hawkman History

    Geoff Johns talks about Hawkman over at Newsarama. It’s a great interview, IMHO. Johns discusses continuity, revamps, and whether it’s better to deal with or ignore the horrible Hawkman history mess.

  • Spider-Man Suit (no, not the good kind you can wear)

    Sony Loses Fight To Keep Marvel Suit Secret The judge in the Marvel/Sony Spider-Man lawsuit has ruled that the filings in the suit would be made public…so expect to read a lot more about this lawsuit that may determine the fate of future Spider-Man movies.

  • I’ll take Nic Juzda to block

    Nicolas Juzda has a quibble with yesterday’s announcement about the NEVER MIND – THIS LINK IS DEAD –Marvel solicitations.

  • Slow month for DC Direct

    I just can’t find any excitement for July’sDC Direct stuff. I don’t collect statues (the Hal Jordan GL statue…I can’t believe it wasn’t out by now). Although I must say one thing for the Superfriends figure sets: this is about the only way to get a Scarecrow that looks the way Neal Adams used to…

  • Random thoughts on DC Solicitations

    Comics Continuum also has the DC Solicitations, and since there isn’t one big item I’ll comment on the little ones: “Formerly Known As The Justice League” is finally going to appear, and I love the cover. That said, the books seems to be in a time warp. Maxwell Lord is said to be alive (last…
