Hello my fellow Major Spoilerites! Today, in the Comic Casting Couch #5, we return to the DC Universe of characters to make one of the most under-appreciated and much maligned characters into a big screen sensation: This Is Wild Dog!

Review: Nemesis – The Impostors #1

He was dead, then alive, then dead, then alive. Tom Tresser, aka Nemesis, continues his battle against The Council in the first of four issues by Ivan Brandon and company. Does this new mini-series give the definite interpretation of Nemesis? Read on to find out…

Review: Street Fighter Legends: Ibuki #1

Street Fighter Legends is a way to take a character (usually female) and tell a unique tale that isn’t bound as tightly by the mythology of the games. While still in continuity with the core title, Street Fighter Legends is usually a lighter hearted and funny tale. This is Street Fighter’s third installment of their Legends series featuring the character Ibuki from Street Fighter III. Previous stories with the characters Sakura (Street Fighter Alpha) and Chun-Li (Street Fighter II) are currently available in paperback.

Review: Girl Comics #1

It’s an all female creative goldmine as some of the best and brightest women in the comic industry create tales that range from Frank Castle dispensing some well deserved justice to Doc Ock going grocery shopping! Marvel’s Girl Comics #1 is out, is it worth your money?

From the Vault: Justice League of America (1997)

What are superheroes like when they take off their masks and drop their “heroic” persona? It is a common theme found in many comic books today. In fact, some books are based solely around this question, and they all have varying degrees of success. One of the more noteworthy examples of this is the 1987 run of Justice League (International), created by the living legend Keith Giffen and J.M. DeMatteis. In it, the comic showed the reader the politics, the in-fighting, and ultimately the humor that is unleashed behind closed JL headquarters’ doors. Sounds like a great sitcom, right? That's exactly what CBS thought.
