I’m still trying to wrap my head around the idea that there’s a super popular Broadway play about Alexander Hamilton. Considering I’ve never seen a Broadway play, it makes sense that Hamilton snuck up on me. Fortunately, some kind and awesome soul has already parodied the play with Star Trek.

Hats off to you, Jackson Lanzing. You are doing the Internet proud.

Read the First Issue of Gamer Girl & Vixen for Free!

As we gear up for the next Kickstarter on April 2, my team and I are offering the first issue of Gamer Girl & Vixen for everyone to read! All you have to do is sign up for our mailing list and we’ll send you a link to download Gamer Girl & Vixen #1. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.

We’ll be using the mailing list to advertise comic news, and other news from the LGBT community. It’ll go out likely twice a month. And there will be more Gamer Girl & Vixen news as we get closer to the Kickstarter next month. Has anybody read the first issue yet? What did you think? Let everybody know in the comments!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 3/12/16

Is anybody else excited for March? By this time next week, we’ll all be buried in the second season of Daredevil! That is beyond exciting! And by this time in two weeks, we’ll all have seen Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice! For some reason, March 2016 is a good month in geekiness.

So it’s good that we have good comics, too! This week delivered more solid goodness from Wolverine, Doctor Strange, Ms. Marvel, Starfire and more. They were so good, I kind of think I should start reviewing other comics, because I praise these too much.

Comic Book of the Week goes to Mighty Thor #5, as Jason Aaron delivers more than a few showstoppers!

Feels like somebody is missing…

Speaking of good comics, remember to mark your calendars for April 2, when the new Kickstarter for Gamer Girl & Vixen launches! In fact, I think I’ll have some even bigger news about my comic tomorrow! So come back then!

Comic Book Reviews: All-New Wolverine #6, Doctor Strange #6, Mighty Thor #5, Ms. Marvel #5 and Starfire 10.

I Really Liked Watchmen

I really liked the Watchmen movie. It’s exciting and fun, and a great adaptation. But hey, it’s not perfect.

Cinema Sins does a pretty good job on the movie, but they once again get pinched by their choice not to consider the source material. I don’t think you can consider Doctor Manhattan’s crazy cool temporal existence powers to be a sin.

Spider-Man Has Arrived in the New Captain America: Civil War Trailer!

And the trailer itself is pretty awesome too!

I was personally hoping that Marvel wouldn’t reveal the new Spider-Man ahead of Captain America: Civil War, but they had to do something to take attention away from the Batman Battle movie. And this is a fun way to do it! The trailer itself is all about the movie, laying out the stakes as plainly and as cleanly as possible. Nobody should be confused as to what this ‘civil war’ is about. Then throwing Spider-Man into a post-trailer teaser is just a neat little way. Marvel knows the baggage that a movie Spider-Man has, and hopefully this will be the start of cleaning him up.

Movie looks great! Bring it on, already!
