Artist Watch: Robert Wilson IV

“I just can’t get enough”! Robert Wilson IV was recently at Zeus Comics in Dallas, Texas signing and doing commissions and I was lucky enough to score a 80′s punk style STORM! There is nothing I LOVE more than a goddess with a mohawk! You can check more of Robert’s work at his homepage HERE and make sure to follow him on TWITTER HERE !

The Variants; “Where There’s A Will, There’s A Waid”

Season 2 Episode 7 of The Variants with guest star Mark Waid [Daredevil] as “Will”, Richard’s brother is sure to have you rolling as Mark deals with a deep dark secret, Eddie is STILL trying to get SOMEONE to read his comic, and Kelli and Barry get stuck playing Ward & June Clever to the ginger brothers. Eventually someone WOULD have to leave it to beaver.

P.s. – Remember folks, tis’ the season! Make sure to go to ZEUS COMICS HERE as they are having 40% of back issues, toys, apparel, figures and statues! You can check out The Variants HERE. Huzzah! Happy holidays!

Avengers Academy; A Light Speed Shocker!

Well, it’s not so much shocking really. Who didn’t call it? I got a vibe from Striker in his first appearance of Avengers Academy, and hello he’s a ficitonal character, but he does look like he’s been shopping in Northstars closet. Am I right ladies?

But alas, it is nice to see more LGBT diversity in the Marvel universe. And speaking of, hello lady Lightspeed [Julie Power] putting the B back in LGBT. Let us not forget those who love who they love and defy those who tell them to “choose a side” within our gay umbrella of a community. I certainly hope this new outing will make his character less obnoxious and bring a new leading gay female character into the forfront of comics again (How I miss Runaways).  Striker reminds me of if Niel Patrick Harris and Tony Stark had a baby. HUZZAH!
