This Week In Comics: 11/14

Another New Comic Book Day is upon us! It’s time to plan out your next trip to your local comic shop and take a look at this week’s new comics! Hit the jump to check out reviews of my favorite comics coming out this week.

Digimon: Why Were There Two Kumamons?

Digimon is a multimedia franchise that is constantly evolving as much as the Digimon themselves. As such, there are plenty of errors and inconsistencies be expected. For example, there are two Digimon with the same English name. What makes this more interesting - if not my favorite Digimon fun fact - is that neither of these Digimon have the same Japanese name. Read on to uncover the peculiar tale of two Kumamons.

Saturday Morning Update #94

This past week was Halloween! On Wednesday afternoon I went and passed out comics at my mother-in-law's house - she gets way more kids in that neighborhood. That was a lot of fun and I'm glad I was able to make it happen. Introducing kids to comics or just getting comics in the hands of kids who may not have access to them is important, yo! And I saw this girl dressed as Kikyo from Inuyasha. She was definitely born after the anime ended, so that was super cool to see. I slid her a full one-shot manga volume. Best costumes get extra candy, right? Afterwards I went to Victory Pointe's Halloween party where I stayed up way later than I'm used to and had popcorn and candy for dinner. Not a bad night.

REVIEW: Culture's Skeleton

Adam P. Knave is a comic book writer and a novelist who has written books with hilariously bizarre titles like NYCWTF, Stays Crunchy in Milk, and I Slept With Your Imaginary Friend. His latest book is Culture’s Skeleton. It’s… yeah, it’s weird. Full review after the jump.

Saturday Morning Update #93

Halloween is coming up and I am all ready! This year I won't be passing out candy, but I'll instead have comic books! Today is Halloween ComicFest, so head on down to your local comic shop and grab some free spooky comics. I pre-ordered a pack of these new Ninja Turtles comics to pass out to trick-or-treaters along with some old Free Comic Book Day comics I still have. It's gonna be a blast!

How We Organize Our Bookshelves

There are approximately seven media shelves in our apartment. One has my manga collection, another my PS2 collection and other games, and some just store random books. There is one shelf in our living room, a super nice one, where we put just our best and favorite books. Come along for a tour of the books on our main bookshelf!

Saturday Morning Update #92

Hey guys! I'll be presenting a panel at Sangawa Project 2018 called "Power Rangers: 25 Years Later" and it's pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Come geek out with my for an hour about Power Rangers to celebrate it's 25th Anniversary.

Sangawa Project is a Japanese pop culture event held in Pittsburgh for attendees 18 and over. Parts of it are classier and more mature than your average anime con, other parts have significantly more boobs and swear words. Hope to see you there!
