You know, to be perfectly honest with you, I’m not sure how I feel about the whole premise of Virgin Comics — it’s a comic imprint started with the singular purpose of turning their comic book properties into movies or TV shows. The only series they’ve done that I thought was...

All hail the Sci Fi Channel! I don’t know what got into these guys, or maybe they’re just getting braver nowadays, but the cable network has a ton of new TV projects coming up, and most of them are just intriguing as hell. Another one of their new backdoor pilot is a TV show based on Rosario...

About two months ago, we reviewed a comic book called “Stranded”, about alien warriors who are put on Earth, and their memories wiped, in preparation for something or another. (You can read our review here.) The comic book was made by Virgin, who have been actively developing comic book properties...

Speaking of The Spectacular Spider-Man, he’s coming to TV in an all-new cartoon from the WB, and will be joining the network’s Saturday Morning Line-up right before The Batman, which has its series finale (re: its very last episode) the same week that The Spectacular Spider-Man will be debuting...

The Batman is closing up shop on the WB’s Kids programming line, and he’s going out with a bang. Or, specifically, a 1-hour finale that will guest-star the Justice League, as an alien menace called The Joining steals the League’s powers and transfers them to android versions. It’s...

Comic book artist Alex Ross, easily, is one of the reasons I gave comic book another shot a few years ago, after having abandoned it a long time ago for, well, adulthood. Ross’s artwork was always so spectacular, so real and down-to-Earth, and yet the people he drew were anything but. And he made...

In recent years, Marvel has been giving DC a run for their money on the big screen. Besides a couple of exceptions, most notably the “Batman” franchise, Marvel’s comic book-to-movies have overwhelmed their DC rivals by a healthy margin. But that isn’t the case on the small screen,...

At first glance, the new comic “The Dark 48″ looks like a mish-mash of Danny Boyle’s “28 Days Later” (they’re not really zombies, more like humans infected with a “rage” virus) and your standard zombie movie, with a group of survivors battling a zombie...

Forget about the alien invasion of planet Earth — what happens when the aliens leave planet Earth after a long and grueling 10-year war with humanity? Why did they go? Where? And who won, exactly? That’s the premise of the new comic book series “Resurrection” by Marc Guggenheim...

The Sci Fi Channel is venturing out. No longer satisfied with just lame monster movies on Saturdays and recycled sci-fi flicks from the ’80s and ’90s, they’ve now gone into the comic book business by partnering up with Virgin Comics, which have been responsible for some pretty good...

The Sci Fi Channel is getting into the comic book business. They’ve partnered up with Virgin Comics to launch a 5-issue limited series called “The Stranded”, which has a pretty nifty premise. The idea is to develop the property first as a comic book, and if it works, then launch it...
