When they drain all the life out of comics

Readers like William have been e-mailing in the last months asking about comic features, pointing out we used to report on comics.  BDW e-mailed to state they never would have discovered the great Bomb Queen comics without our reporting.

So what gives?

The following gives?


comic 2

comic 1


comic 4


Spock?

Star Trek has always had comics. In fact, after NBC cancelled the live action show, a cartoon version was made which ran on NBC Saturday mornings in 1973 and 1974.

But what's really stood out to us of late about comics is the lack of ideas.


Star Trek, Star Wars, Spike (Buffy The Vampire Slayer), Green Arrow remade as the TV's Arrow,  Django Unchained . . .


We're hoping to dig deeper, to smaller titles, shortly.  Because the big lines have turned an art from into an assembly line.
