John Babos triumphantly returns to Comics Nexus with his contribution to Ides of March as well as his thoughts on some recent events.

Beware the ideas of March!
Now the new bossman…old bossman….quasi-new-but-not-so-new-bossman, Mathan, pitched this idea.

Especially given the mood I’ve been in this week, and my overall feelings of…..Cry for [...]

Reviews from last weeks comics.

“The latest in our ongoing series of ‘Let’s never get hired to do real comics!’ comics.” – Curt Franklin, Chris Haley

This was a very good week for new comics, especially with the return of a few titles I haven’t seen in a long time.
Best Comic of the Week:
Daytripper #4
by Fábio Moon and Gabriel Bá
My but I love this comic. I would have thought that the concept, that each issue represent a [...]

Comics Nexus tries something new. Is it a bold new direction? Is it complete editorial turnover? Is it the maiming of a sidekick and the fridging of a little girl?

Nah, it’s just a monthly feature.

Last week-end I went to the Winter Toronto Comic-con, a much smaller affair than Fan Expo in the summer, but packed nonetheless.  I spoke briefly with Guy Davis, who is as cool a guy as he is an artist, and picked up a pretty mixed bag of stuff, most of which is reviewed below.

It might seem a little early to cast votes for the best comic of 2010, but I feel confident after reading this book in saying that the bar this year has just been raised incredibly high.
Aaron gives us a stand-alone story about an elderly [...]

The most addictive comic around…

When I first got into comics I kinda had the basic outline of books I thought would be interesting. Batman, Daredevil, and Deadpool amongst others, though all in the DC/Marvel variety. I’m not really sure how it happened, but once again I refer back to my saying that it’s as though [...]

Writer: Chris Yost
Pencils: Harvey Tolibao
Inks: Array
Publisher: Marvel Comics
I really should have known. After years of watching one of my favourite characters shunted around the periphery of the Marvel Universe(s), and then being massively disappointed at the occasions she has been given some share of the spotlight (a la Sword of the Braddocks), I stupidly expected [...]

Best Comic of the Week:
Mesmo Delivery
by Rafael Grampá
When this book was first published by Adhouse a couple of years ago, I coveted it a great deal, but never actually bought it. I think I was put off by the $12.50 price tag for such a slim book. When I saw that Dark Horse was reprinting [...]
