The Weekly Worship: those darn ‘Godbombin’ Vikings!

There's never been a better time to be a Nordic warrior. The History Channel's Vikings is the closest thing to a weekly episodic Thor series; Jason Aaron's Thor: God of Thunder is enjoying the character's finest run since J.M.S.; and Alan Taylor's Thor: The Dark World hits theaters this fall. Not to mention the Odinson …

Deepwater cadavers, Death’siders, October desires.

God Hates Geeks is back, at least for this evening. And just in time for October, the most anticipated month of yours truly of the year. Not because it's the setting for redundant costumes like Mitt Romney, scab NFL referees or, well, obviously, Bane. But, rather, October sees the likes of sweet fall shows like …

The Weekly Worship: Marvel ‘tends to “Wow” before the launch of NOW.

If this week was any indication, Marvel Comics doesn't appear likely to whimper out the rest of their summer. Oh, you know, like whenever a company-wide relaunch is announced, books just start to suck. A few titles this week were swift enough to take the right detour. But, what is MarvelNOW exactly, anyway? A reboot, a relaunch, a.. reprogramming? The fact of the matter is, …

Hold the presses: This “Moody” turns 32.

Or 42. One year out of "vacation mode" in Los Angeles sure can beat you down. I was warned. I didn't believe it. And it happened. But for all the roller-coaster ride of emotions one has to endure in this City of Not-So-Angelic Clusterfucks, the few highlights sure are worth it: E3. Comic Con. Exclusive …
