The Walking Dead, Z Nation, Resident Evil, REC, Warm Bodies, Planet Terror, Dawn of the Dead, Dead Snow, Zombieland, Shaun of the Dead, 28 Days Later… This list can easily go on, and I hope you see the common denominator between all of these. That’s right, you got it: Zombies! We can’t seem to get enough of them, and quite frankly there have been, probably, more than enough books out there discussing the subject, and how one can survive in case of an impending zombie apocalypse. Reading one or two of those books will probably come in handy at some point in your
life, but why not make life easier and save some time. *Drum role* Introducing the top ten things you need to have come the what seems like the inevitable zombie apocalypse.
10) Condoms
So procreation (or prevention of) might not be at the top of your list, which is totally understandable under the circumstances, but bare with me on this one. Condoms will probably be on the bottom of everyone’s list when it comes to essential items for survival, thus they should be readily available to you — the savvy zombie apocalypse survivor. Due to their rather sturdy composition these little bad boys are great as storage, gloves, and even fire making: durable and handy.
9) A bug cookbook.
Yup. Ok, so you wake up one morning and realize your neighbours have turned into brain munching zombies, mom doesn’t answer your calls, the ex is probably dead so there’s no point in checking if they’re ok, which leaves you on the look-out for number one. Food and water should be at the top of your list, duh… Unfortunately, everyone else has exactly the same set of priorities. Food and water are probably going to be the very first things to go, which is exactly why you should be heading to the nearest book store and getting that bug cookbook. Bugs are full of nutrients and proteins *highly important*, and most people will rather starve than eat them, which gives you an advantage.
8) Alcohol, and Lots of it
Drinking yourself to a stupor is one way to deal with the end of the world, but moonshine has by far better uses than just that — sanitization being one of them. In a chaotic world filled not only with raging zombies, but also humans who go rapidly insane, all sorts of medication will run out faster than you can say your ABCs backwards. So while stocking up on gauze, bandaids, aspirin, and antibiotics don’t forget your pals Jose, Jim, Johnnie, and Jack. In some cases it can even be used as fuel. You welcome.
7) An Ax
Wits can get you far, but they cannot get you all the way. In a zombie apocalypse one needs a weapon. Sure, guns, knives, arbalets, and all those things are pretty awesome, alas the problem with guns is that you can run out of bullets, knives demand close physical contact… You get the picture. The ax is highly practical because not only will it bring a devastating blow on your growling and snipping opponent but you can also do all sorts of things with it: chop stuff, and so on… Best thing about an ax is that it doesn’t need a re-load — ready when you are.
6) Toilet Paper
Now, this should really be a no brainer. Have you noticed that they never mention this one very key item in apocalyptic tv shows? Our heroes are so badass and hardcore: they kill, slice and dice, deal with complicated and intense human drama, occasionally they even eat… But they never sh*t. Are they not human? Do they not digest? What sorcery is this? Anyway, come apocalypse make sure you are not caught with your pants down, unprepared. Stock up on that Charmin like there’s no tomorrow!
5) Steel wool and batteries
In an ideal world when you need fire you’ll have lighter fuel, lighter, matches, perhaps some paper, but guess what? In an ideal world you won’t have to survive zombies either. Let’s say it’s winter — you found yourself a garage as a means of a shelter. Naturally there is no fuel anywhere, you used up all of your matches about four months ago, and lighters became more rare than unicorns. What do you do? This is where my advice on steel wool and batteries comes in handy. Get your hands on a 9 volt battery (or two batteries of any kind, to create to closed circuit) and some fine steel wool, rub the edge of the battery on the wool and presto: let there be light!
4) Solar powered everything
If you made it this far on the countdown you should know by now that resources are very limited, scarce even. One thing we should still have in abundance (hopefully) is sunlight. Get your hands on anything that can be powered by UV rays and keep it close, keep it safe. In the words of Albus Dumbledore: energy can always be found even in the most apocalyptic of places if one only remembers to bring solar powered devices.
3) Mode of Transportation
Horses, tanks, school buses, motorcycles, helicopters, bikes… So many options so little time. Chances are that while trying to outrun the walking dead you will alter between these more than once. Making your journey on foot is not much of an option, even if it is better for your health and the environment. Sadly enough at times you won’t have much of a choice and will stick to whatever is available; yes, even a clown car.
2) Lone Wolf vs. Three is Company
In the pre-apocalyptic world you might have been as in demand as Kylie Jenner, or the shut-in social outcast. If you were unhappy with what was up in your life see the zombie outbreak as a fair shot at re-birth. You can gather up people, work in a team, and potentially increase your chances of survival. On the other hand working alone means you won’t have to care for anyone else, probably won’t take unnecessary risks, make your own decisions, and move at your own pace.
1) Colonization vs. Constantly hitting the road
Okay, so there are no more governments, no taxes to pay, and all the toll roads are toll-free. Under different circumstances this would have been a great era to be alive, however, occurrences such as these usually indicate chaos and disorder. If you ever dreamt of creating a utopia there never was a better time like the present. Find like-minded individuals, enlist them to your cause and start growing those organic tomatoes you always dreamt of. Barricading yourself in your apartment/house could also work. Based on what I saw on tv utopian societies never really work out, and zombies will always find a way into your base (sooner or later). Is being constantly on the move a good idea? It’s also quite risky especially considering that you won’t be able to grow anything or be, at least, partially, self-sufficient.

2015: The Best In Comics
by Admin
written by Admin
It’s time to sum up 2015 in comics. Let’s take a look at the best this incredible medium had to offer this year.
Top 6 ongoing series of 2015
6. Injustice ( DC Comics) – By Brian Buccellato, Bruno Redondo & various artists
5. Astro City ( Image Comics) By Kurt Busiek, Brent Anderson & Various artisits
4. Martian Manhunter ( DC Comics) – By Rob Williams & Eddy Barrows
3. The Autumnlands ( Image Comics) – By Kurt Busiek & Ben Dewey
2. Batman ( DC Comics) – By Scott Snyder, Greg Capullo & Danny Miki
1. Justice League ( DC Comics) – By Geoff Johns & Jason Fabok
2015 was a good year for comics but a great year for the Justice League. DC’s flagship book really stood out as my clear favorite this year. The Darkseid War arc has been a blast, that’s manged to reinvigorate new life into the series. It’s been solid action and story. Strong characterization still manages to be Geoff John’s strength.
Injustice continues to be enjoyable but I sorely miss Tom Taylor’s writing. Martian Manhunter turned out to be a nice pleasant surprise. It’s loaded with an interesting supporting cast that helps drive the mystery at the heart of the story. It’s also a treat to have Eddy Barrows drawing regularly again.
Batman continues to impress me with how different and innovative it continues to be. Synder, Capullo & Danny Miki have carved out a legendary run that will be looked back on fondly in the years to come.
Image comics continues to put out relevant and interesting material from top notch talent. The Autumlands continues to be fresh and addictive, while Astro City does what it does better than any homage to superheroes out there.
Best Mini Series :
( Vertigo) Twilight Children – By Jaime Hernandez & Darwyn Cooke
Indie comic fans will, no doubt recognize Jaime Hernandez’s name from his acclaimed ” Love and Rocket’s” comics. Darwyn Cooke has been a bit of an every man, in terms of comics. Hes done everything from Batman to Parker. Jaime Hernandez’s penchant for storytelling mixed with Darwyn Cooke’s equally impressive talents makes for one of the more intriguing reads of 2015. A Science Fiction tale that’s much more interested in it’s quirky city and it’s inhabitants.It reads almost like watching an indie version of ” The Twilight Zone”.
Best Original Graphic Novel:
( Magnetic Press) Love: The Fox – By Frederick Brremaud & Federico Bertolucci
Love: The Fox is a beautiful book to have. It’s lush visuals are, truly a sight to behold. Like it’s predecessor, ( Love: The Tiger) It takes us through, a day in the animal in question. This time, a Fox. There is no dialogue in this box and you don’t really need them. The art and the storytelling are so good that nothing needs to be ” said”. A wonderful piece of work that showcases what the comics medium is truly capable of when in the right hands.
Best New Series:
( Image Comics) Black Magick by Greg Rucka & Nicola Scott
only 3 issues in and I’m loving it. Being a longtime Rucka fan, I pick up almost anything his name is attached to. I’m glad I did. picture a police procedural mixed with witchcraft and history. Looking at the back pages and following the ancestry of the characters gives you an idea of the amount of research and time that was put into this project. On top of it all, the art is gorgeous! In black & white with rich grey tones that make everything looked extremely detailed. Nicola’s most impressive work to date. I look forward to more from this series in 2016.
Best Event Series:
( Marvel Comics) Secret Wars – By Jonathan Hickman & Essad Ribic
Not since Civil War, have I enjoyed a Marvel event this much. It’s epic in every sense of the word. Although if you haven’t kept up with most of Marvel’s flagship books, you might get lost. Those unfamiliar with Jonathan Hickman should be prepared for a zany, out of the box story. I always compare him to a more restrained version of writer, Grant Morrison. Artist Essad Ribic shines here. I was impressed to see him move from his well known , painted art style to a, more modern pencil and ink style. Almost seamless. Having Alex Ross on cover duties doesn’t hurt this series either. I just had to pick it up when I saw it. Really, this is what DC’s “Convergence” event should have been. A shame , really.
Most Potential For 2016:
( DC Comics) Dark Knight III: The Master Race – By Frank Miller, Brian Azzarello, Andy Kuber & Klaus Janson
Due to the iconic status of Frank Miller’s ” The Dark Knight Returns”, and the fact that it’s Batman, I’d say that DK 3 has the most potential going for it into 2016. The hype is only building thanks to the quality of the first 2 issues. Particularly, issue 1. Even the naysayers are pleasantly surprised how decent it has been considering that the wounds from ” Dark Knight Strikes Again” ( DK2) are still fresh. Azzarello and Kubert’s name add modern credibility to the project. This can only get better… I hope.
Best Writer:
Scott Snyder – Batman, Wyches, American Vampire
Snyder deserves to be here just based on his work with Batman. It’s always daunting to write new stories starring the Dark Knight. There’s just so much out there that you feel, it’s all been done. You might even read a good Batman story , but know where it’s going to end up. Not with Snyder. He keeps trhowing twists and turns that I never expect. he’s keep the character at the top level, making it DC’s consitantly best selling book. His work on American Vampire is what put him in line for his Batman work, and it continues to impress. Wyches # 1 was one of the best selling first issues of the year. This man is on fire and with no signs of slowing down.
Best Artist :
Jason Fabok – Justice League
Where did this guy come from? I’d seen his work before but never to this level. Everytime I read an issue of Justice League my jaw dropped. The detail, the inks, the splash pages! Oh my God, the Splash pages. He reminds me of Jim Lee, during the Batman: Hush era. With one notable difference… Speed. Jason Fabok manages to be on time every month! If you saw the work that goes into each issue, you know this is an impressive feat. Put into perspective the fact that, Neil Gaiman’s ” Sandman: Overture” took two years to finish! We’re only talking about 6 issues there. Look for Jason Fabok to be a star on the rise.
There you have it! the best in comics for 2015. Let’s hope 2016 is, as good or better!

10(ish) Actors Who Best Portrayed Comic Heroes: Part 1
by Admin
written by Admin
After watching the third trailer for Batman v Superman. Foremost on my mind was analyzing Ben Affleck as Batman. I’m starting to feel a bit better about it. Mainly because he looks so damn cool in the costume. As Bruce Wayne, However? Not so much.
Let s take a look at some of my favorite picks for actors who nailed their roles as comic book heroes. I had to really dig deep and think. Who really sticks out? Who comes to mind right away? Perhaps after Cap 3 and Batman V Superman, this list will change. I can only hope.
For the mean time. Let’s begin!
10. Jackie Earle Haley – Rorschach ( Watchmen)
2009’s Watchmen film was based on Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons critically acclaimed comic series Watchmen. The movie was a mixed bag. Fans, generally appreciated it. The general public found it a bit to convoluted and overlong. Perhaps a bit to “weird” for mainstream audiences. One thing that was not disputed was Jackie Earle Haley’s portrayal of the disturbed anti hero, Rorschach. Picture Batman meets The Question, with a dash of Punisher. A pretty messed up individual that was also equally fascinating to watch. Jackie Earle Hayley brought his complexities to life and added a layer of empathy that wasn’t as apparent in the comic. He even looked like Rorschach, when unmasked. I still prefer Alan Moore’s voice when he narrated Rorschach’s journal entries.
9. Hugo Weaving – V ( V For Vendetta)
Another Alan Moore adaptation. This film fared a bit better with audiences. The dystopic movie proved to be extremely memorable thanks to it’s star vigilante. ” V” was excellently played by Hugo Weaving, who was cast late on the project. He nailed it. Yes, it had a great script, but it wasn’t an easy character to play. Most people wouldn’t even realize that the man who played Agent Smith was even in it. You don’t see Hugo Weaving’s face at all throughout the whole movie. He had to act with his body and with his voice. He even lost the use of his eyes. Often, an actors most powerful tool. Even without these tools, he manged to win over the audience and make the character come alive. He gave him an air of mystery without making him feel creepy. You could tell that this was a man who had suffered and was genuine in his cause. Not bitter but righteous.
8. Patrick Stewart – Professor X ( X-men films)
I remember reading a Wizard magazine ( Comic fan mag) back when I was a kid in 1995 , that did a fan cast of the X-men. The first guy on that list was Patrick Stewart to play Professor X. At the time, famous for playing Captain Picard on ” Star Trek: The Next Generation”. A character that needed to showcase leadership, respect, nobility, smarts and compassion. Sounds like Professor X to me. It didn’t hurt that Patrick Stewart was also a classically trained actor. When he was actually cast in 1999 I was thrilled but it was such an obvious choice. Ir really couldn’t see anyone else playing the role. I think you’d be hard pressed to find anyone who would disagree with his casting. Not every X-men movie was great but he sure was. In fact, I wish there was more of him in the films. Particularity X-men 3. Ahem…
7. Anne Hathoway – Catwoman ( The Dark Knight Rises)
Not really known for her acting chops at the time of her casting led me to be very worried when I heard the news. I wasn’t very familiar with her work and after ” Dark Knight”, expectations were high. Upon watching the first trailer, my concerns were more eased. Upon watching the film, they were gone. She pulled off Catwoman with suprising versatility. She knew she would have to play many characters within a character. Catwoman is a good person but a flawed one. Not to be fully trusted. A con artist when needed. Anne Hathoway also worked her ass off to get in shape and deliver some great action sequences. If not for Tom Hardy’s Bane, her’s may have been the stand out performance.
6. Christopher Reeve – Superman ( Superman 1,2,3 & 4)
Reeve is definitely an actor that is tied to his character. You think of Christoper Reeve and you think of Superman. For better or worse, It’s just that simple. Even artist, Gary Frank draws Superman in his likeness, to this day! Christopher Reeve always brought believably to the role. I remember hearing that when he auditioned for the role, amongst many, he was the only one that didn’t look silly in the costume. He just stood there and it worked. When watching his films I remember thinking about how kind he seemed and how he truly wanted to help others. It left an impression on me for sure. As much as I like Henry Cavil, it’s hard to get over Christoper Reeve. No matter how dated or cheesy his Superman was, I think most people think back to him and smile.
Stay tuned for part 2!

Dark Knight III The Master Race: Issue 1 review
by Admin
written by Admin
The third, and final installment of Frank Miller’s Dark Knight saga finally arrived yesterday. The news of even having a third sequel to The Dark Knight Returns may have had you a little worried. You may even still be worried. I know when I heard the announcement, my immediate reaction was ” Why? Just let The Dark Knight Returns live on it’s own! Stop ruining your legacy Frank!” The reason for such a contemptuous response is due to Frank Miller’s awful sequel ” The Dark Knight Strikes Again”. A story that was, pretty much universally panned. Not to mention the lazy and uninspired art to go with it. Ths third time around things are a bit different.
Frank Miller hasn’t been left to his own devices. He is mainly overseeing the project and plotting it. On art we have Andy Kubert and original inker to the Dark Knight Returns, Klaus Janson. Writing it, we have Brian Azzarello. Kubert and Janson are still in fine form and consistently preform. Azzarello made a name for himself working on projects like 100 bullets, JOKER, and most recently, the new 52’s run on Wonder Woman. Therefore, I went in to Dark Knight III with a more open mind. I even got excited for it. How did it turn out? Let’s see…
STORY
There is a lot of setup and mystery in this first issue. The time line seems to be about 3 years after “Dark Knight Strikes Again. After not being sighted for said years, Batman is spotted, which sparks a media frenzy. Everyone has an opinion on what to do or think about Batman’s return.”Much like, ” The Dark Knight Returns”, it seems that the media will be playing a key factor in regards to the storytelling.
This comic is clearly trying to establish itself in our current time. The media characterizations reflect that. They are all parodies, mind you, but if you look closely you’ll find versions of Jon Stewart, Bill O’Reilly & Kelly Ripa and Michael Strahan to name a few. It was sort of refreshing when I read it to say…” Hey! I know those people.” Azzarello’s strength for believable dialogue is on full display here. Much of the first half of the comic employs cell phone texts that may be difficult to read at times, but are, nevertheless, still effective.
It’s a fast paced first issue that spends a bit more time on action rather than characterization. It gives you just enough information to advance to the climax. And what a climax it is. A major game changing moment occurs at the very end of issue one. It’s a great cliffhanger that leaves some burning questions.
Important note:
Issue #1 includes a mini comic featuring The Atom, written and drawn by Frank Miller. in the print version, it’s square in the middle of the book. READ AFTER COMPLETING THE MAIN STORY. Major spoilers if this advice is not heeded.
ART
Andy Kubert does a good job on pencils. They are slick and dynamic. He pays a heavy tribute to Frank Miller’s style. He’s clearly emulating the look but not in a gratuitous way. Kubert’s art style still shines through.
Klaus Janson is as clinical as ever. He always manages to improve upon any artist that comes his way. He did with Frank Miller in 80’s and this time is no different. One of my favorite inkers of all time for good reason.
The action sequences are the highlight of the art. They are exciting and eye catching. You want to study every panel to see if you catch a glimpse of anything extra. One particular fight scene comes to mind. Batman’s shadowy look is used to full effect.
OVERALL CONCLUSION:
The first issue manages to meet my expectations. A solid start that delivers some cool action and some great art. The story seeds have been planted, and they seem interesting enough. After the cliffhanger in issue #1, I expect the story to get even more interesting. The Atom mini comic also manages to add depth and merit the extra price tag on the book overall.
3.5 out of 5

Best Comic Book Battles: Feat Batman
by Admin
written by Admin
We come to the end of the Best of Comic Book Battles. Arguably, I saved the best for last. The Dark Knight himself, Batman. I’ve read countless Batman comics and I can tell you that there are a lot of great battles among them. The problem is narrowing it down to five. I don’t want to miss anything but surely I’ll look back at this list and say ” damn! How could I forget that one!” Nevertheless here is my final entry of Best Comic Book Battles.
5. Batman vs Bane part 1 & 2 ( Knightfall and Detective Comics # 701) By Doug Moench, Jim Aparo, Chuck Dixon, Graham Nolan & Scott Hanna
Okay, so I’m cheating a bit. Technically these are two different fights from two different story lines BUT they fit so well with each other! Most people know who Bane is thanks to the Dark Knight Rises film. The film actually borrowed heavily from both of these stories. Knightfall is the classic where Bane ‘ breaks” the bat, leaving him paralyzed. it’s not much of a fair fight really. Bane pretty much takes advantage of Batman after he’s been battling all the escape convicts from Arkham. By the time Bane shows up, Batman’s on his last legs. Injured and exhausted. Bane just pumps the Venom and beats the hell out of him. I think Batman gets one punch in. This is such an important fight because Batman had never been beaten bad enough that he was broken and humiliated. It also ended a story with the villain, essentially winning. Plus it gave us this classic image…
Detective Comics #701 takes place during the Legacy story line where Bane teams up with Ra’s Al Ghul to unleash a plague all over the world. The story was okay, but it did give us the much anticipated rematch of Bane vs Batman. This time Batman was 100% and Bane was Venom free. The result was a much more balanced fight. I’d even say that Batman dominated most of it. There was a lot of hype for it from my perspective. I think fans really questioned ” could Batman actually beat a guy who seemed his superior in every way?” the answer was satisfying and awesome as hell.
4. Batman vs S.WA.T. teamn ( Batman: Year One) By Frank Miller & David Mazzucchelli
A fantastic fight scene from a fantastic story. Miller and Mazzucchelli create a masterpiece in action with this one. As the title would suggest, this is Batman’s rookie year and he’s not used to having his back against the wall. He’s injured and cornered by a corrupt police S.WA.T. team that wants him dead. The way Batman takes out each member one by one goes from desperate to methodical. He even finds time to save a cat. Another thing I love about this fight is that you get to see how much Batman relies on the shadows and uses it to his advantage. If you’ve played the Arkham games, you know just what I mean. You might say he adopts the dark. ( wink.) This is another fight scene that was adapted in animated and even, loosely in live action films. It just goes to show the strength and enduring appeal of this battle.
3. Batman vs Manny ” The Fish” Cardona ( Batman:Prey – Part 2 of 5 – By Doug Moench & Paul Gulacy)
Definitely a childhood favorite of mine. I remember reading this issue over and over again. The artwork and the dynamic nature of the fight really caught my eye. Still does. I would say that compared to some of the other stories on this list, “Prey” is less known. It did get some exposure when it was theorized that it might be adapted as the third installment of Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy. It’s also known for being one of the best Dr. Hugo Strange stories as well. Again we see Batman in the early years of his crime fighting career. He goes one on one with a crime lord known as The Fish. It proves to be a more even contest than Batman expects. That’s what makes it even funner for me. Seeing Batman make some mistakes and have to fight his best adds a thrill to any fight. Paul Gulacy has a unique style that may turn off some but I love it for this particular story arc. I urge you to check this story out and enjoy an awesome fight scene. It should be fairly inexpensive if you decide to hunt for it.
2. Batman Vs Joker ( Endgame – By Scott Snyder, Greg Capullo & Miki
As the cover would suggest, a battle that has lasted ages. You knew that the greatest rivalry of all time would have to make the list. I think a quote from ” The Dark Knight” really nails it.
“Oh, you. You just couldn’t let me go, could you? This is what happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object. You truly are incorruptible, aren’t you? You won’t kill me out of some misplaced sense of self-righteousness. And I won’t kill you because you’re just too much fun. I think you and I are destined to do this forever.” – Joker
Endgame “seems” to give both combatants the end that only they deserve. It’s eerily similair to Frank Miller’s Dark Knight Returns but it’s meant to be. It’s shockingly brutal and impossible to take your eyes off of. Like any realtionship it’s hard to keep things exciting and fresh between the two after so many years. I can say that , Snyder and Co. succeed in doing so. A lot of fans were divisive in regards to Snyder’s last venture into the mind of the Joker ( Death Of The Family) but this time I think he nails it. The last issue/ chapter is worth it alone thanks to this glorious fight. Courtsey of Greg Capullo & Miki’s art, check out this page…
1. Batman vs The Mutant Gang Leader – Both fights – ( The Dark Knight Returns) By Frank Miller, Klaus Janson & Lynn Varley
This time it’s less cheating because both fights happen in the same story… a flimsy excuse perhaps, but I digress. Both these fights get mentioned a lot and while I’d love to be more original, the thing is too damn good. This particular comic WAS the first time you see Batman get his ass, more or less, handed to him. This time against the leader of the Mutant gang. He’s essentially an earlier version of Bane, full of brute strength and in the prime of his life. Batman? Not so much. In his fifties and just out of retirement. It’s a well known story and it too, inspired the Nolan movies. In fact, the entire story was adapted in an epic animated movie. It does a fantastic job of bringing this epic fight to life. One thing that is missing from the animated version is Batman’s inner monologue. You get to read the way he assesses each blow as he tries to outwit his opponent. Eventually you start to read the fear and desperation as he realizes he’s losing.
The rematch is a bit of a different story. This round Batman tries to use strategy rather than matching his opponents savagery. Batman manages to lure the Mutant leader to a mud pit and even the playing field. The result is one of the coolest, most quotable lines in the whole story.
“[Fighting the Mutant Leader] You don’t get it, son. This isn’t a mudhole… It’s an operating table. And I’m the surgeon.” – Batman
Amazing. Frank Miller has always been a masterful visual storyteller, and here we get Frank in his prime, with a big assist to Mr. Klaus Janson on inks.
There you have it. My picks for Batman’s greatest battles. Who knows? maybe in a few months I’ll tackle a new set of characters to showcase.
