| ‘Womanthology’ To Become Ongoing Series From IDW Posted: 23 Mar 2012 03:00 PM PDT  In the wake of the mega-successful Kicstarter campaign that launched one of the most talked about creator owned projects in comics, Womanthology has been announced as an ongoing series from IDW Publishing. Renae De Liz, the mastermind behind Womanthology and the Heroic graphic novel anthology that it spawned, is pushing forward with a brand new series entitled Womanthology: Space. The comic will still be a contribution piece exclusively created by women. [...]      |
| 2000 A.D.’s ‘Judge Dredd’ Returns To America With New IDW Series Posted: 23 Mar 2012 02:00 PM PDT  IDW Publishing announced on Wednesday that, in conjunction with England's 2000 A.D., they will be bringing a brand new Judge Dredd series to American soil this Fall. It's a good year for Judge Dredd fans as 2012 marks the 35 anniversary of the character, as well as his return to the big screen starring Star Trek's Karl Urban as the Mega-City One lawman. But what comic book fans care about now is the return of the comic book series. Americans will be able to witness the tough as nails, overly forceful lawman in his own series for the first time in 18 years [...]      |

| Get A FREE Digital Copy Of Michonne’s Debut Issue In ‘The Walking Dead’ Posted: 23 Mar 2012 12:00 PM PDT  Digital comic book retailer Comixology is offering a FREE digital copy of The Walking Dead #19, which features the debut of Michonne, one of the series' most popular characters. The sword-wielding badass from The Walking Dead was revealed in the last minutes of the television show's season two finale last Sunday, and while many comic book readers were celebrating, others were left scratching their heads at the site of a woman in a tattered hooded jacket, holding a sword and leading two zombies on chains. Granted, the debut of the character was an awesome sight, but fans who haven't read the comics have no idea of the significance of the character. Enter Comixology. Comixology and Skybound are not run by stupid people. Offering the debut of the character for free is a perfect way to bring in fans of the show to check what fans of the comic have known for years. Michonne is totally awesome [...]      |
| The ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ Abortion Controversy Posted: 23 Mar 2012 11:00 AM PDT  By Not Sure This article talks about events in the Dark Horse comic book series Buffy the Vampire Slayer and contains spoilers for Buffy the Vampire Slayer Season Nine #7. When we're kids, all we need from our comic book heroes are superpowers, simple plots, and a clear line between good and bad -- as an adult, though, it gets more complicated. Now we need complexity and relevancy. We need to be shocked and we need our emotions tweaked. The world around us and the issues that matter most to us need to be poured into our fiction now, even if it cuts through the most fantastic of settings and even if those issues shock or offend. There is a proud history of that in comics, with creators pushing back against both the Comics Code Authority and the loud voices of those who think that ignoring an issue is akin to addressing it. When Stan Lee ran a story about substance abuse in The Amazing Spider-Man #96-98 without the CCA stamp of approval, when the story of Terry Berg was told, and any number of other stories that focused on equality, intolerance, spousal abuse, and several other hot button issues went out, there have been people standing up and people trying to push them back down with a bottle of white out [...]      |
| Watch ‘Game of Thrones: You Win or You Die’ To Catch Up On ‘Game Of Thrones’ Posted: 23 Mar 2012 10:00 AM PDT  Game Of Thrones is undoubtedly one of the best shows on television. Season 2 is set to premiere on HBO on April 1, 2012, so you have less than two weeks to catch up on the series with the Season 1 DVD or Blu-ray. If you don't have the time and money right now to invest in the Season 1 box set before the new season begins (although, I highly suggest you put it on your "To Do list" as it's an amazing show and a great box set), there's now a quick and easy solution. HBO just released a 22-minute video called "Game of Thrones: You Win or You Die," which takes a look back at the key events from Season 1 so you'll be up to speed for the upcoming new season. The video, which is divided into four segments, introduces all the major characters through cast and crew interviews with video clips from both seasons. Watch the full 22-minute video here below [...]      |
| eBook Deal: ‘The Hunger Games’ For $5 Posted: 23 Mar 2012 09:00 AM PDT  The Hunger Games, which was released in theaters today, is undoubtedly one of the most highly anticipated films of the year. If you haven't already read the book by Suzanne Collins, now's your chance to get the Kindle Edition for only $5. It's a quick read and it's a great book, so you could technically get the ebook and read the book this weekend before seeing the film. Or, go see the movie, then come back and read the book -- seriously, I highly recommend it. Alternately, if you have some time, you can order the Paperback, which is also available at the low price of $5.01. See the "Special Offers and Product Promotions" section of the product page for more deals for The Hunger Games, where if you buy a qualifying Hunger Games book, you will get $2 towards The Hunger Games: Songs from District 12 and Beyond or The Hunger Games: Original Motion Picture Score MP3 albums.      |
