So, in Archie #600, Archie Andrews proposes to Veronica Lodge. Let me analyze the cover for you, if you don’t mind.

First, let’s take a look at Veronica. She’s her usual elegant and sophisticated self, totally bitchin’. I’d want to marry her too if she wasn’t fictional.

Another awesome monthly book bites the dust. This is a sad day for me. I’ve been enjoying Captain Britain and MI-13 since it launched in the middle of Secret Invasion and I feel it’s being taken from us way too soon. I just can’t believe they’re going to cancel a book where Dr. Doom helps Dracula with his plan to invade Britain. Vampires invade the UK, you guys! Sigh. It’s a sad, sad day indeed.

My favorite comic blogger slash Internet hooligan Chris Sims, along with Matthew Allen Smith and Benjamin Birdie, has unleashed The Chronicles of Solomon Stone upon us and, well, I can’t find the words to describe how CRAZY AWESOME it is. I’ll let this one panel do the talking:

Yes, that’s a half-vampire detective on a skateboard freaking out dinosaur ghosts.

Check out all 3 chapters of The Chronicles of Solomon Stone now online:

1. Night Falls on the Cosmodrome!
2. The Deadly Doom of Dinosorcery!
3. Showdown at Murdermuerte!

The radness of it all will FREAK. YOU. OUT. \m/

First thing that came to mind was “Great. Another X-Team.” After a few nanoseconds, I was like “Jesus, this is awesome.”

The upcoming crossover between Dark Avengers and Uncanny X-Men will introduce a new team put together by Norman Osborn and led by Emma Frost. The team is a little strange for an X-Team.

Everybody else wearing the “X” gives me that old “Well, that’s weird” feeling.

Chris Jericho vs. “Rowdy” Roddy Piper, Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat and Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka: With Ric Flair in the Legends’ corner, you’d think the cards will be stacked against Jericho. But we have to remember that even though there are four of them, the Legends are geriatric shadows of their former selves. Then again, it’s not always about how good and fit you are in the WWE. Steamboat is being inducted into the Hall of Fame this year and it will be a damn shame if he’ll lose a match at Wrestlemania. Also, I have a feeling that Mickey Rourke will be involved in one way or another.
