Quasimodos.
For some random reason, I decided to search for this Incredible Hulk one shot today. I have no idea why; I owned it as a kid, and I distinctly remember that it wasn’t anywhere close to a classic read… …and when I found it, I also found this awesome piece of original Gahan Wilson cartooning: [...]
Covers I Love: You Scream, I Scream…
Posting about Torpedo the other day made me wonder if I could hunt down any original Alex Toth art from his brief run as artist for it on the ‘bay. Well, I couldn’t find any of that, but I did find one for the Covers I Love file: Human ice cream has always been a [...]
THOR!
So this weekend I hit up the local IMAX to check out Thor. I figured I’d have a lot to say about it. But turns out… nope. There’s really not that much to say. Was it good? Sure. It’s funny, it’s got some good action, it’s got plenty of mark out moments for fans of [...]
Happy Mother’s Day!
A very happy mother’s day from all of us here at the Noize Corp to all our mom’s, and all the other mom’s out there! And of course in honor of all those special mom’s, here’s a bunch of mother’s day special issues!
Covers I Love: The Blockbuster Goes Bat-Mad!
Much like Blockbuster himself, this one should be a no brainer… Come on, do I even need to spell it out? This is a picture perfect piece of comic book cover art. And the back cover is just as great as the front, albeit for entirely different reasons… And while we’re looking at this issue, [...]
Random Comic Book Friday Returns!
Who are we kidding, Pat’s been holding things down here so well that you never even missed it. But that’s ok. This week we actually got two comics that tie together nicely. Or should I say, STICK together, since both involve sticky substances… If this issue of the Defenders was published today, you can bet [...]
My Earliest Comic Memory.
It was the winter of 1986. I had just come home from the third grade, and for some reason that I do not remember, I was not wearing my winter hat. For another some reason that I also do not remember, this was A BIG DEAL. If there was one rule for winter weather wear [...]
Blacksad.
Another one from the crime comics from other countries file, Blacksad’s main character is the other quintessential noir lead character: the hard drinking, chain smoking, always a suspect in very the crime he’s investigating private detective. But the thing is, this detective is an anthropomorphic black cat. Created by Spaniards (Juan Díaz Canales and the [...]
Torpedo.
Do you recognize this face? If not, then that means you haven’t checked out IDW’s awesome, English translated collections of the Spanish crime comic Torpedo, aka Torpedo 1936, which is notable not only for it’s black humor and violence, but for having it’s first two issues drawn by comics legend Alex Toth, who was replaced [...]
Guilty Pleasure File.
I was perusing Comic Book Resources the other day, and I saw an article that made me giddy. One of the few late 90s Spider Man villains that I ever enjoyed, and a long time resident of my Guilty Pleasure File is making a comeback during the Fear Itself event. That villain? CARDIAC!!! There’s a [...]
