Matt Fraction, American Fiction, and Jimmy Olsen! (Pt. 1 of 2)

October 24, 2020 by Ritesh Babu Leave a Comment

I made Casanova and I’m telling you, I could never match the psycho-sexual Jungian underpinnings of Superman’s Pal Jimmy Olsen as presented by Mort Weisinger. By wife-beating, child-hater Mort Weisinger. – Matt Fraction

I must confess at this juncture:

I’ve never particularly been a Jimmy Olsen fan.

Now, now, put your pitchforks down, folks. I like the goofy ginger as much as the next person, always have. But he was never a character I was particularly obsessed with or enthralled by. You get me? He was fun. He was cute. He was charming. And you know what? That was enough. I didn’t think he necessarily needed to be more. [Read more…] about Matt Fraction, American Fiction, and Jimmy Olsen!

The 10 Best Flash Comics!

One of DC’s most reliable mainstays, The Flash has been a fixture of their output for 70 years now…even if the man in the red-and-yellow suit might change. Jay Garrick, Barry Allen, and Wally West have been the longest-tenured bearers of the mantle, and with hundreds of issues between, it can be a little tricky figuring out what Flash stories are worth your time. Luckily, that’s what this list is for! [Read more…] about The 10 Best Flash Comics!

Tarot Reading of X-Men: X of Swords Chapter 10 – X-Men #13!

October 22, 2020 by Gabi Echenique Leave a Comment

Editor’s Note: Tarot Readings are a major thematic and stylistic component of the 2020 X-Men comics event, X of Swords. Since it’s not a field I know, I’m excited to bring in a specialist to provide unique readings based in the Tarot connections of the story. We’ll be running these Tarot examinations following each of the event’s 22 parts. Enjoy!

As each of the 22 chapters in the X of Swords crossover relates to one of the 22 Major Arcana cards from tarot, is time to analyze X-Men #13 and its connections to card number 9, The Hermit. [Read more…] about Tarot Reading of X-Men: X of Swords Chapter 10 – X-Men #13!
