Happy Birthday to the late, legendary John Buscema. A versatile illustrator with a dynamic style. I particularly enjoyed his work when he did both pencils and inks.

I know Alan Moore hasn't been happy about the comic book industry for more than 30 years. I did read an interview with him years ago. Moore said he was disappointed to see a medium that had once entertained children become more adult - and expensive.

Why Alan Moore Regrets Writing His Most Iconic Batman Comic
In 1988, Alan Moore changed Batman forever when he released his seminal graphic novel The Killing Joke. What many don't know is that he regrets it.

Finally picked up The Avengers #201 (November 1980). It's a day-in-the-life story with a little action. It's also the last issue George Perez did in the 80s.

@dragottaart homage to Frank Miller's Dark Knight is one of the reasons why I read Absolute Batman. One year in, and it's already the best Batman series we've seen in decades.

One of my favourite comic book series is coming to the screens large and small. "Something Is Killing The Children" is an action-horror story of a monster hunter struggling to protect children from monsters both supernatural and human.
