Letters to an Absent Father

The artist from my previous post reminded me of a mini comic series that was popular a couple of years back. Every Pokémon fan has wondered at some point where the heck Ash's dad is hiding. Then Maré Odomo made a surprisingly touching comic series on the topic. His comic is available for sale here, but it's not too hard to find them all on the internets if you know what you're looking for. Still, those stickers that come with the book are soooo cute!

Too tired to name this post.

Check out more comics at Magical Game Time!

Or read about the author, Zac Gorman, at Joystig!

Who do the Ghostbusters call?

An announcement about a new Ghostbusters comic caught my eye today. IDW publishing is relaunching their Ghostbusters comic with a new cast. That is not the part that stood out to me, though. It was that Janine has been promoted! There she is on the cover.

The storyline seems to be something like some demon or other actually defeats the previous ghostbusters and a new cast will be taking on the job, presumably to save them at some point.

You can read more about it here.

Life With Archie is weird... and awesome

Anyone who's ever read an Archie comic, you might want to read this.

I just wanted to let the world know: Life With Archie does not suck. It is the opposite of suck. And it is extremely weird. Each issue follows Archie's life after he marries Betty and then, in a second story, after he marries Veronica. It sounds like a lame love story, but this is one comic that is nothing like you would expect. To see some of the really weird developments (or if you just want to know what's up with that picture) hit the jump.
