http://randomlongbox.blogspot.com/2009/06/cerebus-241.html
One man's journey through his 50 long boxes. One issue at a time, completely at random. Sunday, June 7, 2009. Comic Book Review: Cerebus #241. COVER DATE: April 1999. COVER PRICE: $2.25. I remember that Cerebus. Was huge, right as I was getting into comics. I remember either a barbarian Cerebus. Or a Wolverine Cerebus. From my earliest collecting days. Obviously, the beginning issues by that time were way out of my price range, so I never did really start reading. After all, there were. Next up, we get t...

One man's journey through his 50 long boxes. One issue at a time, completely at random. Tuesday, July 14, 2009. Comic Book Review: The Spectre (Vol. 3) #2. TITLE: The Spectre (Vol. 3) #2. COVER DATE: January 1993. COVER PRICE: $1.75. I had recently got on board The Sandman. Bandwagon, and this liked it could be something similar so I gave it a shot. From the first issue I was hooked. I was familiar with John Ostrander. From his work on Grim Jack. And Mandrake were responsible for just about the entire run.

This book, I'm going in stone cold on. I've never read it before, nor have I ever read any of the original incarnation of the Charlton characters from the 60's. My only experience with them has been from DC Comics, when they were incorporated into the DCU. Crisis on Infinite Earths. Strings of Punch and Jewelee.

One man's journey through his 50 long boxes. One issue at a time, completely at random. Sunday, August 9, 2009. Comic Book Review: The Avengers #189. TITLE: The Avengers #189. COVER DATE: November 1979. COVER PRICE: $0.40. The 70's was an awesome period for The Avengers. For me, it doesn't get any better than this. The stories were fun and fantastic, and moved at a frenetic pace from issue to issue. If that wasn't enough, you had the likes of Neal Adams, George Perez, and John Byrne. So caught up in his ...

As I start to head into my late 20s, I realise that I'm only three years younger than the Man of Steel Superman. Join me as I chronicle and review his life. Wednesday, 20 April 2011. This is not a Superman post. Sadly, they weren't. The news was true. Completely out of nowhere, Elisabeth Sladen, the actress behind the most popular and enduring companion of the entire 49-year history of Doctor Who, had sadly succumbed to battle with cancer that very few people knew that she was fighting. Richard Herring, ...

TITLE: Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. #23. COVER DATE: May 1991. COVER PRICE: $1.50. Nick Fury's a badass. That's what I remember. In a perfect world, that's all you need to remember. Unfortunately. The world has not been a perfect place for Nick Fury. I was too young (read not born yet) for the classic Lee/Kirby and Steranko. Has call...
