I’m liking this t-shirt from Etsy Store Hey That’s Super. It reads; I am Groot! That’s a superhero joke geeks will get today and the rest of the word will get when Guardians of the Galaxy reach the cinemas in August. Tempted? Buy it here. This week any post with “Superhero Week” in the title […]

Die with superpowers: A review of Death Sentence
Imagine being told that you’re rapidly developing superpowers but that the process will kill you in about six months. How would you live? That’s the premise to Monty Nero and Mike Dowling’s Death Sentence. In Nero’s world the G+ Virus (nothing to do with Google Plus) is a fact of life. It’s a sexually transmitted […]

I imagine that was a straight cash battle. There was no super-powered arm wrestling over that honour. Execs knew exactly which Justice League hero […]

Shocking: A review of Vicious
I really enjoyed Vicious. I think. I started to read Vicious knowing it was a superhero book. So when we start following two intelligent but out of sorts friends at college it is clear we’ll dabble in their origin story. There’s a bit of rivalry and so it is equally apparent we’re reading about nemesis […]
