I’ll admit it, I am a little biased; I love the “Bravest Warriors!” If you’ve never heard of them before, “Bravest Warriors” is a crazy fun cartoon created by Pendleton Ward (the same guy from “Adventure Time”) and available on the Cartoon Hangover channel from YouTube. The episodes are each five minutes long and seriously you guys, you owe it to yourself to go check out that awesomeness before you read any further. Seriously. Go.

In honor of the upcoming 100th issue of Invincible, the critically acclaimed superhero series by Robert Kirkman, I’m going to read it all for the first time. All of it. My journey will take me through hardcover collections, trade paperbacks, single issues, and more. My goal: to read and review the entire series before issue 100 drops in January. To see Part 1 of the Complete Invincible Review, look here. Each Wednesday I’ll be posting the newest installment in the series, so stay tuned.

Marvel headlines the brand new wave of Marvel NOW! with this first title. Does the effort by Rick Remender and John Cassaday live up to the hype?
Fear not, True Believers! As we reported a couple weeks ago, The Amazing Spider-Man will be coming to end this December with issue #700. Recently announced, however, is the new title to pick up where Amazing leaves off: The Superior Spider-Man, set to debut in January of 2013. It’s the same creative team you know and love, but with a new take on the iconic character.

Django Unchained is the newest movie from acclaimed director Quentin Tarantino, arriving in theaters Christmas day. It’s a western set in the deep south before the civil war, starring Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kerry Washington, and Samuel L. Jackson, among others. Apparently the movie will now be receiving the comic book treatment, with “Django Unchained” #1 set to launch on December 5th, the first of a five part series. Said Tarantino: “The comic will literally be that very first draft of the script. All that material that didn’t make the movie, all of that will be part of the piece. And I’m really excited about it.” Art for the series will be done by R.M. Guera, and the books will be published by DC comics. Here’s the trailer for the movie; click below to see the first and third covers of the series by Jim Lee and Massimo Carnavale, respectively.
