First gear in my giant robot car

When you think of a cartoon that has effected the way cartoons are made today chances are this might not be on your list. However I bet one or more of the shows you named might be something that effected this show. Megas XLR was a trip into your childhood while at the same time making a spot for its self. The pilot aired during the 2002 Cartoon Network Summer fest with the title of Lowbrow. The Summer fest similar to 2000’s Big Pick aired pilots of shows that were waiting for approval. Needless to say Megas XLR was picked as a new show and soon made it’s way into the homes and hearts of many fans.

Day of Black Sun

The episode we’d all been waiting for. The last half of Season 2 and all of Season 3 have been building to this moment. Could it possibly live up to our expectations? Hit the jump to find out.

Messiah Complex, Chapter 5, X-Men #205.

Destruction cometh; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.

Getting Up: DMZ #23

DMZ’s consistenly been one of my favourite series. I like Vertigo stuff as a whole, but this seems to be a departure from the normal future/fantasy/superhero stuff, which is good every once and awhile. For those who haven’t read, or even heard of the series before, it’s about a Journalist who has been stranded in the DMZ, the island of Manhattan which has been ravaged by a new Civil War. As he’s on the inside, Matty Roth must report on the people and goings-on of the DMZ without getting himself shot in the process.

Messiah Complex, the battle is joined.

Chapter 4 – New X-Men #44

Blessed are the children, Blessings and Joy shall be theirs

Theirs is a Dream of Hope,

That they shall not be the Last

Review : Action Comics #859 – “The only good alien..”

Action Comics #859 by Geoff Johns and Gary Frank was released this week. This issue continues the “Superman and the Legion of Super-Heroes” storyline, a tale of Superman and his childhood friends facing persecution and peril in the far future. In the 30th century, aliens are hunted and imprisoned, all in the name of Superman. The Legion and Superman need to rescue their team members and avoid being captured by this future’s version of the Justice League. This shouldn’t really be a big deal for Supes, except for the fact that the Earth’s Sun is RED, leaving him powerless.

Take the jump for the rest of the review.

Maus is in the House!

Nice to see some awesome comic book writers in the mainstream.  Alan Moore is a tank.  Didn’t see the episode myself, but I probably will, soon.

Batman and the Outsiders: Screw you guys, I’m going home.

So, every once and awhile Batman gets pissed off and decides that the Justice League are too goody-goody to get what he wants done. Superman and the others won’t lie, cheat, steal, or generally bend the rules to achieve what needs to happen, so he leaves in a huff, adds another child into his stable of assassins, and if he’s feeling especially randy, creates a super-team of his own. This my friends, is the premise of The Outsiders.
