380. Spider-Man

The Ultimate/Miles Morales variety. Still a fine book, if not completely dragged down by Marvel not having any clue what to do with the Ultimate line of comics. Hopefully the upcoming relaunch helps stabilize some stuff. Last night, in my crushing loneliness, I was looking for a completely insane and gory horror movie in the …

379. Icon

Hey, it’s Valentine’s Day! I love it! I love myself! I love everything! Fuck.

378. Green Lantern

I didn’t have time to ink this at all. Sorry. I’ve said it before, John Stewart is my 3rd favorite Lantern, behind Guy Gardner and Kyle Rayner respectively. Hal Jordan, you’re damn near the bottom.

377. Static Shock

I never read any of the comics, but I did enjoy the cartoon quite a bit, and the couple cameos he made in the Justice League ‘toon. I’ve seen some movies. The Lego Movie was fantastic and I can’t recommend it enough. I don’t want to talk much about it because it should just be …

376. Black Goliath

Only thing I know about this character was that he was Hank Pym’s assistant, and was also once known as Giant Man, or just Goliath. Also that his costume is ridiculous and I love it, but there was one that was even more ridiculous than this. And finally, that he was killed when Thor’s clone …

375. Angel

The second Angel, from Grant Morrison’s run on X-Men, played by Zoe Kravitz in X-Men: First Class, and one of the weakest parts of an otherwise excellent movie.

374. Night Thrasher

I dunno a thing about this character. Skateboard! 90s!

373. Cyborg

My list for this month is a little Marvel-heavy, so I’m trying to break it up with other characters when I can. Cyborg was a character I first “found” from the Super Powers cartoon back in my childhood. I always liked him, Firestorm too. Eventually I discovered Wolfman & Perez’s TEEN TITANS and continued to …

372. Nick Fury, Jr.

This may be the one character I draw this month that I actively hate. Classic Nick Fury is awesome. Even Ultimate Nick Fury is awesome. Samuel L. Jackson as Movie Nick Fury is double plus awesome (I just listened to the 1984 audiobook). But holy crap is Nick Fury, Jr. a turd and a half. …

371. Michonne

If I had any foresight, I would have saved Black Panther for today’s entry. 20 years ago today, we lost Jack “King” Kirby, creator of B.P. (originally Coal Tiger). But I didn’t, so I decided to go against type and put up my one non-superhero entry for this month, Michonne from The Walking Dead. I’ve …
