In a recent news release posted here at MajorSpoilers.com, it looks like one of the best writers in comics today, at least in my opinion, is going to guide one of her comics to the small screen. And I couldn’t be happier!

I’m always interested when a comics company tries something different in order to get the word out about their product.
I always like to look back on the last days of the year/beginning of the New Year and think about what has taken place! 2017 has been a fascinating one, with a lot happening in the comics industry.
Since it’s a day that makes me feel in the holiday mood, I thought I’d look at something that I always enjoy in comics… the Holiday Specials!
What else is there to talk about in the industry besides Disney’s recent acquisition of 20th Century Fox’s TV and Movie divisions, paving the way for the Marvel characters licensed there to return home to Marvel Entertainment?
I’ve been reading with interest three recent articles about Marvel taking their characters into other forms of media.
I often discuss the “renumbering conundrum,” when comics companies change the numbers of the issues of certain series’ in order to boost sales. Well, we have a lot of “big event” numbered books coming our way soon! Personally, I’m looking forward to them!
There’s been a really interesting development when it comes to selling comics, and it has to do with Alterna.
It’s been a weird week or two at the House of Ideas. Last week, Brian Michael Bendis signed an exclusive contract with DC. In the last few days, Axel Alonso quietly left the company, with C.B. Cebulski being named Editor-In-Chief.
It almost seems like all this came to light eons ago, but I thought I should weigh in on the recent news that Brian Michael Bendis has signed an exclusive contract with DC, leaving Marvel behind for now. I’ve been watching the reaction from fans and fellow creators alike, and it’s been really intriguing! Let me share my thoughts on all this before we leave this topic behind!
If you go to many local comics shops, you’ll often find what many of us refer to as “the quarter box,” meaning the books therein often sell only for 25 cents.
It’s only a few days until Halloween … tomorrow night, in fact! I just returned from a horror-themed convention named Spooky Empire, held in the Orlando area. All this made me think about the role of horror in the comics industry. I have to say … it’s a pretty big one!
When it comes to comics, most of the time it seems that you’re either a “comic reader” or a “comic collector.” There don’t seem to be too many among us who do both.
I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again – Free Comic Book Day is one of the most creative and successful ways to attract new readers/customers into local comics shops ever conceived. Well, following on the heels of that success is Halloween ComicFest, which hasn’t quite caught on with the same vigor. However, I think it’s time to make this event another great one when it comes to spreading the word about our love for comics!
