Keith Giffen, who writes Masters of the Universe, will also pen a DC Universe crossover. In an interview with Buzzfeed he acknowledges some of the typical problems with crossovers.

Code Monkey Save World comic book Kickstarter
I’m a great big fan of Jonathan Coulton’s Code Monkey. In fact, it may now be banned from the work Spotify list due to overplay. So when news of a Kickstarter to turn Code Monkey into a comic book came to me I had to track the details down. It’s a partnership between writer Greg […]

Eponymous review
Eponymous is a comic book from Mike Garley with art from Martin Simmonds and Letters by Mike Stock. I’d actually encountered the comic series before as it features in VS Comics #1 and other editions. VS is really strong and Eponymous was one of the many titles in the collection that I knew would be […]
Cute DC and Marvel counterparts

Geek Native is now lucky enough to be home to Dustbunny’s guide to getting started in cosplay. This is an interview with the expert cosplayer with plenty of images. The issue of cosplay not being equal to consent is front of mind at the minute so we talked about it. Is safety an issue? There’s […]
New super villains: The Joker’s Daughter and Relic
DC have been teasing fans with images and sketches of new super villains. First up is The Joker’s Daughter. All we have is the image but she’s clearly wearing the Joker’s face. Gregg Katzman at Comic Vine speculates this might be the New 52 introducing Duela Dent or perhaps this is Harley Quinn’s daughter. We […]
