Ever since I started producing content for this site back in 2012, it’s always been difficult for me to determine what to cover and what does it mean to be a comic book game. An easy example of course would be super hero games from “The Big 2″”: Marvel and DC, but what about things…
Fighting games as a genre go hand in hand with super hero comic books. As much as any fans of super hero books say they read for things like story, characters, plot, art, etc, they can’t lie and say they don’t also love a good old-fashioned throw down complete with epic splash pages, larger than…
Before Henry Cavill became the Man of Steel and Ben Affleck suited up as the Dark Knight, a Justice League film was in the works from the director of Mad Max, George Miller, that would have utilized technology similar to 2007’s Beowulf or The Polar Express. For numerous reasons the project was scrapped along with…
Presently I’m busy playing games and gathering my thoughts on the second chapter of my “Year of Acclaim” feature (something that’s proving to be EXTREMELY difficult), and on top of that I’m brainstorming up some new ideas I’d like to share with you for other parts of the year as well.

What started out as an alternate costume for Spider-Man turned into one of the wall-crawlers most deadly foes when he discovered it was an alien costume trying to take over him. The situation soured even further when Peter Parker got rid of the…
As a kid of around 6 or 7, I had little to no knowledge of The Rocketeer’s history in comics, but what I did know is that there was a movie about this golden helmet wearing character zipping around in a jet-pack, shooting gangsters and saving the day. As you can more than likely tell,…
The big news yesterday if you’re a comic fan, especially a fan of Marvel books, is that the traditional Marvel Universe, designated 616, will collide with the Ultimate Marvel Universe which will cause them to cease existing as we know them today after the upcoming Secret Wars event that kicks off in May.

Metroid, a series set in the far future across various planets and galaxies on paper at least has little in common with the prehistoric vistas featured in the Turok franchise. On closer inspection however, the two are more alike than they appear, especially if you’re looking exclusively at the Metroid Prime series. Don’t believe me?…
