REVIEW: With Only 5 Issues, Is it Already the End for Deadpool the Duck?

When comic creators decide on doing a crossover, it’s pretty much guaranteed that shenanigans will ensue. When Marvel deemed that Deadpool and Howard the Duck should “join forces,” they might have taken that a little too literally. Writer Stewart Moore and artist Jacopo Camagni have done a wonderful job in steering us down this Alice […]

This means the publisher has been launching titles that have revealed the post-Secret Wars status quo while the event is happening.  Good or bad, that’s for the reader to decide.  We’re just here to help […]

Kibbles ‘n’ Bits 4/20/15: Making money at crowded comic arts festival

  § There’s been some chatter over the last week or so over this public FB thread by Stephen Bissette about what he sees as exclusion of certain creators at indie comics shows. It sprang out of an older thread, and the conversation eventually includes Bill Kartalopoulos, who works with SPX and MoCCA, as well […]

Six new What The Duck covers for April with Aragones, Stokoe, etc.

April is Howard the Duck variant cover month for Marvel and here are six more — these covers could function as a mini-FAQ for “famous images to parody” : American Gothic, check, Washington Crossing the Delaware, check, Iwo Jima, check and so on. I don’t think there’s been a Janet Jackson Rolling Stone cover parody yet, but give them time.

Howard the Duck comeback gains speed with “What The Duck??” April variants

Waugh! Marvel will release 20 variants covers in April celebrating Howard the Duck in a promotion with the saucy title of “What the Duck??”

This April is going to be WTD certified!”
