Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #24: Another Ten Underrated Batman Stories

It is past time for a new Comics Corner, it is around the 77th anniversary celebration of Batman’s first appearance, and I have writer’s block. That means a listicle! A while back (February of 2015, to be exact) I offered you all my thoughts on the Top-Ten Most Underrated Batman Stories (click that link and go…

Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #23: L’invasion Invisible (The Invisible Invasion)

Welcome to another edition of Comics Corner. For this month, we’re going to hop across the pond and take a little trip to France, where we’ll be taking a look at independent French comic L’invasion Invisible. In a comic book world almost entirely dominated by the big four – and particularly the “big two” of…

Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #22: 1986 – the Revolutionary Year for Comics

1986. It is difficult to call it the “greatest” or “most influential” year for comics, but 1986, much like 1962, was a touchstone year in comics, publishing some of the most beloved stories in comics, even today. While there have been other periods of years or spans of a particular editor which have just as…

Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #21: Comixology Unlimited – the Netflix of Comics

This month we are going to look at Comixology’s brand new service: Comixology Unlimited. It was launch on May 24th and is the equivalent of a Netflix service (or I think possibly more of an Amazon Prime service) for digital comics. The service currently offers a free 30 day trial and after that it is…

Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #20: Henry & Glenn Forever & Ever

It is amazing how often in this column on comics that I’m able to meld in my other interests: typically either movies or yelling at millennials on the internet. But for this issue, I get to include a whole new passion of mine, music, as I talk about the collected edition of the comic series…

Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #19: Top 10 R-Rated Comic Book Films

Believe it or not, Deadpool is nothing new. Well, it’s completely new and original in almost every way, but it isn’t the first R-Rated comic book film. What makes Deadpool stand out is the Marvel logo at the beginning of the film, which has become an incredibly well-known brand for family-friendly films, but in truth, Deadpool…

Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #18: 5 Must-Read Deadpool Comics (for noobs!)

With the dramatic and record-shattering successful first weekend of the Deadpool movie there are going to be a lot of fans jumping on board wanting to read all about Marvel‘s favorite Merc With a Mouth. That’s wonderful! There are so, so many excellent Deadpool stories in the comics, and I for one am hoping that…

Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #17: The Year Ahead In Comics

Happy New Year and welcome to the first “Comics Corner” of 2016. Much like every other year, 2016 is full of great promise in comics. While a great deal of the publishing news is still under wraps, a few of the highlights and promises of the year-to-come in comics are already known. Let’s take a…

#STARWARSMONTH – Comics Corner: issue #16: ‘Marvel’s Star Wars’

  In 2009 Disney bought Marvel. In 2012 Disney bought Star Wars. And from those two purchases Dark Horse lost their comic book publishing rights to Star Wars Comics at the end of 2014 and Marvel launched its new Star Wars line of comics in January of 2015. While it is a sad day seeing…

Kevin McVicker’s Comics Corner: issue #15: Warren Ellis ‘Must-Reads’

Anyone who knows me knows that I believe Warren Ellis is the greatest comic book writer today, and is potentially one of the greatest of all time. I’m not alone in my belief on this subject, but to those of you who may be new to comics and want to properly waste your time and…
