One of the unfortunate side effects of having a comics hobby is that it can get a little pricey. Especially if you are interested in collecting ongoing comics and want to maintain that collection. At $2.99 a pop your monthly fix can add up quick, even if it is worth ...

Okay that's a bit of an exaggeration. But I have been reading a lot of comics. I'm all caught up on the current JSA, JLA, Batman, Detective Comics, Booster Gold and Secret Invasion. The grand total was something like 55-60 comics. Its only comics, but it sure feels like an ...

In case I haven't mentioned this before, I love Shadowpact. I've been reading it non-stop and it just keeps getting cooler.
Shadowpact follows a team of magically powered superheroes and their adventures in the D.C. Universe. They generally fight obscure magic users and gods that threaten the Earth, but their exploits ...
