I'm Max. I read comics. It's kind of my thing.
Hello and welcome back to yet another long-delayed installment of a so-called regular feature here on the blog! If you don’t recall (and why would you at this point?), this feature was once called “Mendicant Monday,” back when I had utterly laughable delusions of actually “scheduling” my posts. So, I had all these supposedly clever […]
Read More Mendicant Musings Presents: Groo Chronicles #2!Welcome back, at long last, to another installment of Hopeless ROM-Antics! It seems that the war between the Spaceknights of Galador and the Dire Wraiths of the Dark Nebula has raged on for nigh on 200 years since last I made such a post on this blog! No excuses shall be made on that front. […]
Read More Hopeless ROM-Antics Presents: House Call from Hell!Well, hey there, folks! I know it’s February 2021 at the time of this posting, but howsabout we take look back to the Holiday Season of good ol’ 2020? Still with me? Okay, then, let’s set the scene: ‘Twas two nights before X-Mas, and all through the ‘net… …these were the new comic books that […]
Read More New Comics Update for 12-23-20!The so-called New Comics Update! Catching us up to still not quite X-Mas of 2020! Go! Amethyst #6: This mini-series came to a fine conclusion, but it’s one that feels pretty empty, since it rather radically upends the classic status quo, but since there seems to be no plans to follow up on this series […]
Read More New Comics Update for 12-16-20!It’s New Comics Update coming to you from…the past! Just imagine: it’s December 9th, 2020! X-Mas is only like 16 days away! The Presidential Election was decided over a month ago and everyone accepted the results and moved on with their lives and looked to the future like sane, sensible adults! Okay, part of that […]
Read More New Comics Update for 12-9-20!Well, hey, there! As I wait for whatever the hell it is that’s going to happen on Inauguration Day here, I figured I’d get another one of these posts out! Maybe there will even still be an internet for people to read it on after Jan 20, eh? Well, if so: here’s the new comics […]
Read More New Comics Update for 12-2-20!Here we are folks, with the New Comics Update featuring the new comics that I picked up on November 25th, 2020! I’m writing this post on January 16, 2021, because yes, I am that far behind. That’s partly because I have too much going on for my ADD-riddled brain to keep up with. This blog, […]
Read More New Comics Update for 11-25-20!“And you thought the beat slowed down? Come on!” -Chuck D, Public Enemy Yes, the march of the Never-Ending Events continues here on the MRC! This time around, we’re taking a look at a two-part “mini-event” (even though this issue like 80 pages long), the first part of which is called: Generations: Shattered #1! Check […]
Read More Never-Ending Events Presents: Generations Shattered!As you may have noticed: I read a lot of comic books. Some would say: too many. Those who say that are obviously wrong, and I have proof: I had, until just the other night, not read even one issue of “Challenge of the Super Sons.” So, obviously, I am not reading ENOUGH comic books. […]
Read More Late to the Party: Challenge of the Super Sons!Yes, I know I said these Updates weren’t going to happen any more. Then, I figured out that these updates have become a part of a ritual for me. I read the new comics, then I write a post about the new comics. Even if these posts only amount to my own private little comic-readin’ […]
