Indie comics have been lowly regarded as nothing but second rate to the major companies for years. Artist and Writers struggle to individually produce their product out of their own pockets and push said product at booths within cons.

Wonder Woman is a name the is so famous that it is almost completely disassociated with the comic world itself. She is in herself her own entity. She instills hope, power, and courage into young girls and women alike. Even though she is the essence of women’s power incarnate she, as many women through the ages, has suffered heartache, disempowerment, and prejudice. In Wonder Women! The Untold Story of American Superheroines, a PBS special, we find out the story behind the woman that made her what she is today.
After the atrocity that was Wolverine: Origins aired a couple years ago, I think it’s safe to say that we’re all cautiously optimistic about the premiere of The Wolverine. I say this because Origins was one of my favorite comics to hit stores in a long time. How it was possible to fuck up that arch so badly is beyond me.

Joss Whedon is doing Angel & Faith, a Buffy/ Angel reboot through Dark Horse. There’s a bunch of Star Wars excitement going around. They even have a Dragon Age comic, even though it’s not choose your own fate. The newest arrival that made my inner nerd girl scream is a prequel to the highly anticipated Last of Us game from Naughty Dog.
