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 […]
I’ll be honest; from time to time, I forget that McFarlane Toy’s are still around. Which is probably due to the fact that I’m not 13 anymore so I don’t give a damn about Spawn, […]
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 […]
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, […]
Lying Cat shirts have arrived! The Will’s trusty sidekick has been immortalized in cotton. Saga by Brian K. Vaughan and Fiona Staples is currently Forbidden Planet NYC’s best-selling monthly semi-monthly comic book and deservedly so. […]
It’s been hella fortnight since we’ve last taken a look at Heroclix-stuff, mostly because Square Enix drops enough product on a weekly basis to that point where I can ignore the tabletop gaming section. However, […]

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 […]

Happy belated 4th of July FPNYC Faithful, it is disgusting outside, let’s blow up the sun. Saying I’m a mark for Matt Fraction stuff is like saying that…that’s it’s too hot outside to make comparisons. […]
Alright so y’all bought Hawkeye #11 this week right? You better have, because I’m going to be writing all about it. Soon. This time it’s all about toys. So we’ve gotten a but-ton (Ton O’ […]
Toy-talk next time I swear, but for now I want to talk comics and y’all got to suffer through that first. I’ve bought a few books that warrant discussion, at FPNYC and now I’m going […]
::: Vacuums after a lengthy absence ::: Yo apparently this blog begins and end with me if the lack of updates indicate anything. So Heroescon obviously has passed once again, and according to this article’s […]
