Oh, Harrison Ford, with your dry “It gets real confusing after awhile, doesn’t it?” and picking your nose on live …
This is what happens when Techland goes to the comic book store: we end up talking about what we picked up. This week, Douglas Wolk, Evan Narcisse, Mike Williams and Graeme McMillan discuss Superman: Secret Origin #6 and Namor: The First Mutant #1.
DOUGLAS: I like the team of Geoff Johns and Gary Frank a lot; I think they bring out a …
In a galaxy far, far away in an alternate Star Wars universe, Obi-Wan failed to inform Luke that Leia was his sister. It turns out they did a little more than play tonsil hockey while Luke was recovering from the wampa abduction. Say hello to little Gree-Morr Skywalker.
P.S.- Bonnie, you may not want to watch this (again?), since …
Following Marvel Comics, DC Comics and Scott Pilgrim, Image Comics have teamed with ComiXology to launch an iPhone/iPad app for their titles, including Savage Dragon, Youngblood, John Layman’s wonderful Chew and Robert Kirkman and Todd MacFarlane’s Haunt (Kirkman’s The Walking Dead has been available through ComiXology’s own app for …
Each week I rush home with my pile of new comics and while they still have that new comic smell (not to be confused with old longbox comic smell) I pour over them and look for the Panel of the Week. This week’s installment features desk chair heroes, the anti Herbie, the Point Break galactic sequel, Metallo lite, and an unlocked Street …

Like, twenty-five thousand years earlier. Oh, and it continues more than a century after the end of Return …
The first time I laid eyes on a Star Wars film, I was kicked out of the room almost instantly. I was probably nine or ten and had just come wandering in to investigate the noise our surround sound was making. I marched right in firing questions off as I watched two men poke each other with long glow sticks.
“What are you watching? Who …

If you forget, it’ll call you or text you. If you need a refill, there’s a button inside the cap that’ll call your pharmacy. The whole system works as simple as plugging in a …
Our friends over at TIME Video have an interesting story on conflict minerals being used in every day devices – like cell phones and laptops – that are fueling violence in Congo, where the materials are mined and traded. Something that you may recall was brought up to Steve Jobs in an e-mail.
Oh, okay; it’s not that kind of XXX screenwriter, sadly (But it makes a great headline, right?). Marvel Studios have hired Rich Wilkes, the scriptwriter behind the Vin Diesel/Ice Cube franchise xXx, to write a movie based upon the company’s 1970s kung-fu character Iron Fist, according to Deadline Hollywood.
The character, who first …
This just in: Eddie McClintock does a great Joanne Kelly, and Artie’s gift for poetry leaves a lot to be desired. Was it just me, or was last night’s Warehouse 13 the best episode of the season? Clearly, my head was turned by the possibility that Myka would actually get a non-work-related subplot of her own for once. Here’re thirteen …
