Not everyone is a good person. In fact, a vast majority of people tend to be downright jerks. But often times, watching bad things happen to jerks can be incredibly entertaining. I believe the Germans call it schadenfreude.

Tuesday Preview – Boom Studios’ Herobear and the Kid #1
Tuesday Preview on June 4, 2013 at 2:01 pm by JohnScott
For this week’s preview, I bring you an awesome new all ages title from Boom Studios, Herobear and the Kid #1
It’s Picture Day at Tyler’s school, and naturally he’s forgotten! But before Tyler can pick his good side, he has to sneak out of class with his best friend Herobear to stop an attack on the Simpleton Bridge from the mysterious Von Klon and his Sub of Doom! . . . and he better not lose his hallpass in the process.
Don’t miss as creator Mike Kunkel relaunches his Eisner award winning creation at KaBOOM! with a brand new original adventure!

Everybody needs some role models, someone to look up to. Someone who does heroic deeds selflessly for the good of others. Making the tough choices that no one else can for the greater good. Even if they themselves don’t get to partake, and have to rename nameless and faceless. As someone once said, sometimes the needs of the many, outweighs the needs of the few, or the one.

DC once almost killed Jimmy Olsen from AIDS, so here’s some old DC AIDS PSAs
Crazy Comic Ads on May 28, 2013 at 2:46 pm by JohnScott
A few weeks ago, writer Jim Stalin revealed that DC almost killed Jimmy Olsen from AIDS back in the 80’s in an attempt to be hip and trendy. Fortunately, someone told them that was a horrible idea. To commemorate this news, we’re sharing a bunch of AIDS PSAs we found in old DC comic books.
Check them out after the jump, they are pretty hilarious.

Thirty six years ago today, a landmark film was released in the science fiction genre. It’s a little film you may have heard of called Star Wars. In celebration of that glorious day that changed geekdom forever, today is Geek Pride Day, so wear it proudly!
But also, don’t forget the hardships your geek forefathers bore. It wasn’t always as easy to be a geek as it was today. Besides the daily beatings in school, we had it hard. Nowadays you can transfer files just by touching your phones together, that’s insane!
Back in my day we used floppy disks, and hundreds of them, or those horribly designed Zip disks. Or if we wanted to download an image from our favorite BBS (not the Internet, but BBS, the Internet wasn’t even a thing yet) it would take like 30 minutes, not .08 seconds. My first hard drive was 235 MB. MEGAbytes. Now my laptop has 2 Terabytes by default. That’s a million times bigger! Don’t believe how hard it always was, check out this timeline on the History of File Sharing to see how far we’ve come in just over 40 years.

Friday Five – Villains
Comic Books, Friday Five, Star Trek, Star Wars on May 24, 2013 at 3:02 pm by JohnScott
A hero is only as good as his rogues gallery. Breaking up muggings and robberies is all well and good, but taking down a super villain and his diabolical machinations is an entirely different story.
