Kyle Garret
May 25, 2016
DC Comics, Slouches Towards Comics
I'm tempted to refer to DC Rebirth #1 as Abed Nadir #1, because it has so many layers and is so full of meta commentary that it might be the greatest comic I've ever read. Or the worst. Because regardless of...

Why so many people love Dick

Kyle Garret
December 30, 2015
DC Comics, Slouches Towards Comics
First and foremost, you should go read this excellent piece by Meg Downey which gives some historical prospective on Dick Grayson with regards to his current incarnation. It wouldn't be a stretch to say that...

Marvel Comics, Slouches Towards Comics

Slouches Towards Comics
In May of 1999, Warren Ellis, Bryan Hitch, Paul Neary, and Laura Martin gave us the first issue of The Authority, and "widescreen comics" was born. At the turn of the century, widescreen became the latest...

February 9, 2015
DC Comics, Slouches Towards Comics
I suppose it was pretty obvious, really, but the scope of it didn't occur to me until now. Of all the things that annoyed me about the New 52, the changes made to the Batman mythos got under my skin the...

Warner Bros. announced the cast for the upcoming “Suicide Squad” movie, which is set to beginning filming in April and to be released in August of 2016. The announcement has made something very clear to...

Does Character Matter?

Kyle Garret
October 28, 2014
DC Comics, Marvel Comics, Slouches Towards Comics
