The Ultimates Saga Continues!
Yesterday I wrote about three terrific series that told the story of The Ultimates, Marvel Comics’ reinvention of their super-hero team, the Avengers. In addition to those three phenomenal series that I discussed (The Ultimates, The Ultimates 2, and the Ultimate Galactus Trilo
The Ultimates!
Last month I wrote several posts about my favorite graphic novels. One of the works that I mentioned (saying at the time that a more lengthy review would be coming) was Mark Millar & Bryan Hitch’s The Ultimates. In the early 2000’s, Marvel Comics launched their Ultim

Death in the Shadow of New Life — Josh reviews J.J. Abrams’ Star Trek!
It’s been a long road. After walking disgustedly out of the opening weekend screening of the catastrophically terrible Star Trek: Nemesis back in December, 2002, I knew that Trek was at a low point. It seemed uncertain what, if any, future the franchise had after the release
