Comic Book Review The End League by Rick Remender

     Welcome to the Post apocalyptic Future where Mad Max meets supermen in Rick Remender and Matt Broome's New Series from Dark horse Comics.  The last super heroes in a post apocalyptic future ban together to form The End League. I love Remender's work for dark horse comics with Fear Agent. I feel this is a project he has been wanting to do for a long while and a perfect opportunity to work with artist Matt Broome. Here we See renditions of famous super heroes like superman, captain , America, luke skywalker, and Thor try to survive as they head out on a quest L.O.T.R. style for the only artifact that can save humanity.  Three thumbs up for this Title from Dark horse comics.

The Amazing screw on head by Mike Mignola

     Check out pilot episode for the Amazing screw on head here. Then go out and buy it on dvd. I read the comic book one shot published by Dark horse comics and loved it. Set in 19th century America , with Abe Lincoln as one of the major characters , this is a classic moment in animation that shouldn't be missed. Cool art and animation for any fan of steam punk.

I wasn't surprised because I've Had no luck selling my B.P.R.D comic book titles when I,m done reading them. I'll probably bundle them up at some point or sell them on craigslist as a comic book lot. Check back on My blog as I explain more of my eBay strategies as well as pop culture reviews.

Steam Punk Report

             I've been reading Boing! Boing! lately ,and it has made me very curious about the steam punk sub genre of sci-fi, I can,t say I know much about it. I'm going to spend part of my time learning about it, and posting my findings on Pop culture battleground. I think I'm going to start by getting the animated film steamboy and reviewing it. I liked Akira and it's one of my favorite animated films. My basic understanding of Staem-punk is it takes the same attitudes of cyber-punk and sets them in a turn of the century setting. I've seen Mike Mignolia's the Amazing Screw on Head and will be reviewing that one soon enough.
