Dave Buesing's Comic Book Herald Writing!

Dave founded Comic Book Herald in 2011 and has written a lot about comics since that time. See for yourself below!

Herald Guided Review: The Manhattan Projects Volume 1 by Jonathan Hickman & Nick Pitarra

January 23, 2013 by Dave Leave a Comment

Jonathan Hickman is a jerk.

Not really. I’ve never met him. But as comic writers go, no one is as consistently smart as Hickman. It’s infuriating. With his new Image Comics series, The Manhattan Projects, Hickman deftly finds a way to blend the poetry of Einstein’s Dreams, the absurdity of comic book science, and the fragility of American history. It shouldn’t really possible. If you’re an aspiring writer it’s like declaring your intention to play in the show one day with Roger Clemens hurling steroid-infused meatballs straight past your flailing arms.

What a jerk. [Read more…] about Herald Guided Review: The Manhattan Projects Volume 1 by Jonathan Hickman & Nick Pitarra

Herald Guided Review – Flash Gordon: The Tyrant of Mongo (vol. 2) from Titan Books

January 19, 2013 by Dave Leave a Comment

Flash Gordon confuses me. Tremendously. In a way that rivals Microsoft Excel pivot tables, the critical acclaim of Citizen Kane, and the fact that Ghost-Rider with Nicolas Cage got a sequel.

Or at least, Flash Gordon confused me before I read the gorgeously crafted Flash Gordon: The Tyrant of Mongo, the second volume of complete Flash Gordon stories from Titan Books. I’m finally starting to understand. [Read more…] about Herald Guided Review – Flash Gordon: The Tyrant of Mongo (vol. 2) from Titan Books

2013 Comic Book Superheroes Movie Schedule (also, a nerdy test)

January 8, 2013 by Dave 2 Comments

Looking back, 2012 was a Banner year for comic book movies – and I don’t just say that because Mark Ruffalo finally delivered the Hulk of my dreams (Heroic and full of rage! And that hair!).

Any chance 2013 measures up to the likes of The Avengers, The Dark Knight Rises, and The Amazing Spider-Man?

… Probably not. But let’s take a look at what’s on the docket anyway: [Read more…] about 2013 Comic Book Superheroes Movie Schedule (also, a nerdy test)

MDCU on iPad is Getting Better! How’s the Flashless Beta Reader Looking?

January 7, 2013 by Dave 6 Comments

As most loyal MDCU readers know by now, after years of fruitless flashless iPad failure, Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited has recently released their new Beta Reader. The new reader makes digital subscriptions easily accessible on iPad or iPhone, but as with any Beta product, there are some kinks. After around two weeks with the MDCU reader, how does the future of digital comic reading look? [Read more…] about MDCU on iPad is Getting Better! How’s the Flashless Beta Reader Looking?

Marvel Avengers Initiative iPad App Update – Plus, Marvel Online Game Guide

January 5, 2013 by Dave 4 Comments

A little while back, I wrote a pretty excited review about Marvel’s new Avengers Initiative app. At the time, you could only play as the Hulk and the game was going for a whooping $6.99. Now?

Marvel has $.99 sales like every other day and you can also work your way up to playing as Cap. [Read more…] about Marvel Avengers Initiative iPad App Update – Plus, Marvel Online Game Guide
