Erik Larsen creates perfect villains. Ridiculous and deadly. It’s a precarious combo, but he does it expertly. (Remember to order SUPER FREAKS from your friendly neighborhood comic shop [or mail order service])

Super Freaked

A little over 10 years ago, my friend Jim asked me for advice/help on getting started with a podcast. I gave him what little advice I could (which, after podcasting for almost 14 years, is still very little and useless). Then I offered him a URL and hosting space on my server, and I started …

On today’s milestone 350th episode of Gutter Trash, we review Fred Van Lente & Ryan Dunlavey’s THE COMIC BOOK HISTORY OF COMICS. It’s incredibly informative, educational, and entertaining. And, Van Lente & Dunlavey create the single greatest comic character within the pages of CBHoC. So great, that my pal and Gutter Trash co-host Jason Young …

Today the 300th episode (BATMAN & ROBIN!) of my podcast Gutter Trash is released. The 300th episode is a long time coming, in fact, it should have happened last year. Unfortunately, tragedy struck, and my co-host Jason needed some time away from the show. When he came back ready, it wasn’t too long after that …

So we’re down to the final week of Legion of Superheroes Month. The last six days here are going to be fairly lady heavy. I’m not sure how it worked out that way. Actually, I am. Fear. Pure fear. In art, like life, I fear the ladies. *** Zardoz. To be reviewed on Gutter Trash.

I’m bad at likenesses. I’ve been watching the first season of THE ROCKFORD FILES for a couple weeks now. I enjoy it a lot, but the episodes have a sameness to them that a lot of older series suffer from (which is why I’ve not been able to watch too many of the old INCREDIBLE …

369 – Marshal Law

Marshal Law is one of those books that was always on the periphery for me when I started reading comics. I would order back issues and trades and such from a mail order catalog – usually X-Men or Batman related stuff. But a couple books always stood out in the ads I would see. Things …

288 – Star

Star was (is?) a supporting character from Erik Larsen’s Savage Dragon, a character and creator I have gone on about at length. Star was sort of a Spider-Man-ish character, but Larsen added some twists and to the archetype and to the character itself, making him a beloved recurring hero. Anyway, there’s a guy I know …
