This past weekend was East Coast Comic Con, held at the Meadowlands Expo Center in Secaucus, New Jersey.

Five Points Festival was hosted at Pier 36 this past weekend and was an absolute blast. Smaller on the scale of cons, it provided a very unique experience with a focus on things that get lost in the shuffle as other cons grow to be bigger. The con didn’t promote any big names or have […]

Miles Morales: Ultimate Spider-Man #4 (9/10 Lugos) –SAM Bendis’ Ultimate Spider-Man was one of my favorite books for the longest time. Right up until the death of Ultimate Peter Parker.
