Artist Andy Kubert returns to the world he co-created with Grant Morrison in Batman #666 in which an adult Damian is the Dark Knight of an apocalyptic Gotham City.
Bruce’s son was killed as a casualty of war between the Dark Knight and Damian’s mother, Talia Al Ghul. It was part of Morrison’s endgame since taking over Batman.

Longshot’s luck did not run out with The End of X-Factor. The former X-Man stars in his own limited series Longshot Saves the Marvel Universe by writer Christopher Hastings and artist Jacopo Camagni. Longshot’s mullet it gone and he’s got chops.

Longshot was created by Ann Nocenti and Arthur Adams in their classic limited series then adopted by Chris Claremont’s X-Men for a long run before joining Peter David’s X-Factor. With such a strange origin and past Hastings tells viewers the simple reason to check out this new beginning for the hero. Continue reading LONGSHOT Saves The Marvel Universe Preview
As we count down to Halloween I want to share some “so good they’re scary” comic book stories you should give a try…if you dare!
One of my all-time favorite Spider-Man stories is Kraven’s Last Hunt. This classic final showdown between Peter Parker and Sergei Kravinoff was also known as Fearful Symmetry.
An obsessed killer and a monster in the sewer are classic horror movie elements and drive this comic book tale of terror. Of all of Spidey’s horrific costumed villains it’s the pure insanity of Kraven’s eyes and sense of purpose that give me chills. Continue reading HALLOWEEN COUNTDOWN Scary Spider-Man Story
