Michael Moorcock’s Multiverse Reprinted

Every so often, I am reminded that I have been doing this for a long while. The latest bit of nostalgia came from the announcement from Titan Comics that they will be releasing The Michael Moorcock Library: Multiverse Volume 1 on July 12. This 160-page hardcover reprints the first six issues of Michael Moorcock’s Multiverse, which was a 12-issue series that launched in November 1997 from DC Comics’ Helix science fiction imprint. I know I read it at the time […]

My Favorite Comics and Manga of 2022

Been a while since I’ve done one of these… I don’t pretend to claim these are the best, as the comic industry has long moved beyond where one person could be familiar with everything coming out. These are the books that came out this year that really moved me or entertained me or left me with things to think about, presented in alphabetical order. All My Friends by Hope Larson Asylum by Greg Means and Kazimir Lee Cat + Gamer […]

Smut Peddler Reprinted for 10th Anniversary

My, how time flies. Back in 2010, I was approached to help with an anthology of comic erotica. The goal was to assemble sex-positive, female-friendly dirty comics. The book, the first Smut Peddler collection, ended up successfully crowdfunding in 2012, making this the 10th anniversary. Now Iron Circus has announced “a new, DELUXE tenth anniversary edition! Featuring all the groundbreaking stories included in the original anthology, we’ve gussied up this version with tons of extras, including a foreword from Stoya, […]

Baltimore’s Going to Be a Great Show!

There are some great East Coast region shows that I haven’t attended since I moved to the Midwest (ten years ago!). One of the best is the Baltimore Comic-Con. I am thrilled that KC and I are able to go this year, because it’s the best kind of traditional comic book show for me: plenty of guests, reflecting all kinds of comics, from all different eras, with a definite comic focus. It’s about two months out, and tickets are available […]

My San Diego Comic Con 2022

I survived San Diego Comic Con (SDCC) 2022! How’d I do it? By flying in Wednesday and flying out Friday. Which gave me one day to do panels, and even that was a lot. (Mark Evanier was complaining that people don’t call it Comic-Con International: San Diego, which is its proper name, and wondered why they still use the old name. For the same reason Batgirl is back again: traditional comic fans love nostalgia and hate change. And I include […]
