Super Bowl Inspired Super Heroics

Well, here’s an obvious one for today. Not terribly creative on my part, but then again it wasn’t terribly creative on Marvel’s part either. What sort of licensing tie-in is this? Fans of comics may also enjoy sports! Alright. Where’s Soccer-Man? This is more like it. A Ken Kelly EERIE cover in poster size. Look [...]

More Watchmen Cash-In Here

I’ll be honest, I have no idea what’s being sold here. But I expect a lot of this sort of thing to be on Ebay leading up to the Before Watchmen books. A photo… poster… thing. Looks lovely in the living-room of a superfan.

The Post-Hero Moral Dilemma

Is anything sacrosanct? Is there any single idea that cannot be touched upon out of reverence for the source material? That’s the subtext of all these Watchmen arguments floating around the internet today. In case you missed it, DC announced a series of books titled BEFORE WATCHMEN. As you might imagine, some fans are up [...]

Back In the Days When ANYTHING Sold

On what Earth would this product have been picked up, investigated, and purchased? What was the state of the comic book industry when this totally worthless item could be relied upon to sell even enough to justify printing it? It’s a trivia comic from a small publisher. Trivia about characters in that small publisher’s universe. [...]

Steal Sean Philips

Why is this piece of original art by the impossibly great Sean Philips, featuring incredibly popular characters, not going for lots of money? That’s for the seller to worry about. All you need concern yourself with is the purchase, mounting, and framing of this beautiful thing. Created as the recap page in an issue of [...]

Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I’m a Violent Super-Powered Convict

So this might be a weird thing to admit on a site made for collectors of things, but I don’t care about signatures. I just don’t. Unless it comes with some original art, or you got it signed on your chest, I don’t see what the big deal is. Yet here’s an Ebay auction based [...]

Now you can pretend to be part of a deathsquad fixated on the marriage of science and the occult! FUN! I just got back from Germany so expect [...]

A Vibrant World

YOU KNOW I LOVE PRODUCTION MATERIALS! Here’s a color guide for an early-80s issue of Spectacular Spider-Man. This sort of stuff thrills me because it celebrates the whole process of comic making. Which I understand is probably as nerdy as someone collecting lighting rigs from films they love, but whatever. It’s that sort of stuff [...]

Bilbo Smirnov

So the newly released Hobbit film trailer got you pumped? You’re excited to experience the magic of the Tolkien classic on the big screen? Well, why not start with this terrifying-looking Russian “comic book” adaptation? It boasts “illustrations on almost every page”. That isn’t a joke. Even if you’re unwilling to pay asking price for [...]
