In the wake of Wizard World Chicago 2008, an experience filled with hilarity and heartbreak, we touch on the passing of Michael Turner, finally get rolling on Final Crisis #2 (all too briefly for my taste, but one can’t have everything…), Erik Larsen and Image Comics, the repurcussions of unconstructive criticism, Marvel1985, Mike Norton’s Trinity work with Jerry Ordway, Simone Bianchi as the modern-day Alex Nino, Mark Millar and Old Man Logan, Walking Dead Volume 8, World War Z, scumbags who capitalize on the brilliance of George Romero, Astonishing X-Men #25, Warren Ellis, Avatar Comics, and much, much more! As usual, the Hotline is red-hot with ridiculous remarks! Google Cronic Dorome!
