Looking to Buy Comics Online Try NewKadia.com
Buying Comics Whenever I have purchased comics online, I have always simply purchased from a small handful of online shops. Today I got a press release in my email about a shop that has apparently been in business for almost twenty years and is kind of local to me. Looks like they are strictly online,…

Review: 1Up Collectibles Comic Shop
Here is my review that Yelp.com seems to have flagged/filtered/removed for their own stupid reasons. Five Stars ***** for 1Up Collectibles This is the best comic shop in the area hands down!

My Thoughts on the Batman Costume
With the new Batman Dark Knight Rises film coming out this summer, I really wanted to get a Batman costume this year for Halloween. Heck there is even still time to get one before the film hits the theaters if you wish to go to the midnight showing dressed as the Dark Knight. For a…

Marvel and DC Comics Mixing It Up
So I was over on Marvel.com checking for information on upcoming Marvel movies and the ad running on almost ALL pages was an ad for the new DC Comics animated Wonder Woman movie (I will of course be getting this film when it comes out on Tuesday). But why is it popping up on Marvel.com?…

Catwoman and Big Bang Theory
I am sitting here working on my posts watching Batman: Returns and Batman and Catwoman were in the middle of a big fight scene and my thoughts immediately go to Big Bang Theory.

Review of Batman: Gotham Knight DVD
Batman: Gotham Knight is out on DVD now. It is the latest animated feature from DC Comics. It is actually six mini movies all done (or should I so over done) in the anime / mango style. Just because anime is getting more popular doesn’t mean every thing needs to be produced in that style…

Small Scale Dark Knight Figures
The Batman Dark Knight figures are pretty cool. I’m not talking about the six-inch figures or even the deluxe figures (although the deluxe Joker does look more like Heath than the others). I am referring to the small 3.75-inch scale figures. You have probably noticed by now that I have a thing for small toys…

Hasbro has release 3.75″ Indy figures. The same scale as the Star Wars figures. Now Mattel has released DC characters in the same scale.…
