Halloween is a hell of a thing y’all, and this year’s beer and candy diet was not the best plan. Probably should have thought that one out a bit. :: snorts a crushed-up Kit-Kat bar […]
It’s New Comic Book Day(!) and the store is open from 8am to MIDNIGHT. Here’s some of today’s new single issues. Our picks of the week include Pretty Deadly #1 by Kelly Sue DeConnick and Emma […]
This is where my usually hilarious intro paragraph goes, but I don’t got the time for that today. Hawk-talk time is now! Hawkeye #13 Matt Fraction/ David Aja Marvel Comics, $2.99, 20 pages David […]
I survived New York Comic Con 2013 and all I got was….a butt ton of stuff actually. Roughly $180 worth or stuff. No regrets, YOLO and such, because if I review it, I can write […]
FACT: I HAVE NOT BEEN DOING A GREAT JOB OF KEEPING UP ON THIS PART OF THE BLOG, A DOZEN APOLOGIES! NYCC prep has been crazier than usual. IT HAS BEGUN! Revealed back at San […]
It was a GREAT week for comics that I buy, and I am excited to tell you all about them FPNYC Faithful. Let me do so right now! In terms of new releases for 2013, […]
The European comic shop scene is weird to me you guys. Between London, Halifax and Paris, I saw no less than a dozen comics shops, some of them named Forbidden Planet even, but man, it’s […]
Little bit of news FPNYC Faithful, I’m going to Europe from 9/10-9/20. Meaning I’m not going to be talking comics with y’all for 10 days. Which means you’ll have to go to one of those […]
The downside to buying comics on a weekly basis is that sometimes you have off-weeks. Where the books you pull are okay, but not the best. Especially weeks where you’re not pulling Saga or Hawkeye. […]
I’m not sure about all of you guys, but I’m the type of comics enthusiast who’s active on twitter. And not in the sense where I spew e-hate at Ben Affleck for signing on to […]
Still no Wolverine Legends, or whatever the crap they’re supposed to be called. I’m hearing September at this point, supposedly comics shops exclusives, so that’s cool. Well it’s only cool if I can snag both […]

SHAMELESS PLUG! Got an email from the fine folks at New York Comic Con last week, confirming a panel I submitted has been approved. The exact details are coming shortly, but know that once again, […]
Swear to Glob that’s probably the unintentional dirtiest title attached to an article of mine to date. In case you somehow missed the news yesterday, New York Comic Con 2013 tickets go on sale tomorrow […]
Like most X-fans, I have a love/hate relationship with the X-movies. Some of them are great, some are terrible and the rest are mediocre at best. Wolverine Origins falls into the terrible category in my […]

San Diego Comic Con is going down, and I am not there, but in hot-ass Brooklyn instead. Part of me is jealous of the dozen or so people I know who are in attendance, but […]
Before we get into the reviews, I just wanna give a thank you shout-out to Loran/Solphie, who’s time at FPNYC has come to an end. I wish her all the luck out in California, and […]
