    X-23 #1 (One-shot) – Preview (Marvel Comics!)
    I like the look of this one. Marjorie Liu, Filipe Andrade, and Alina Urusov (cover) bring us a one-shot featuring X-23, aka the last new Marvel character introduced whose first appearance has a premium associated with it. Below we have a preview from the Marvelous ones featuring a pretty cool intro and I’m down with anything stamped Women of Marvel. Look out for...

    Guardians of the Galaxy #24 – Preview
    Galaxy-class writing duo Dan Abnett & Andy Lanning are back, and you know I have to represent Marvel Cosmic’s flagship title! I just reread Infinity Gauntlet so I’m especially in tune at the moment to this preview we have from Marvel Comics. Wes Craig is on the art with Guardians of the Galaxy#24 (which I’m not really feeling here in this preview–maybe...

    Doctor Solar Man of the Atom/Magnus Robot Fighter – Dark Horse FCBD Preview
    Saw these over at CBR and because I’m a big fan of VALIANT I just have to mention it here at BSC. First, it’s not VALIANT, but it is Jim Shooter writing characters called Solar (MD version) and Magnus Robot Fighter. Not only may that be good enough, it might be better than what we can get from VALIANT. Last December we mentioned this project when the cover...

    Iron Man 2 Trailer – Robert Downey Jr. & Scarlett Johansson!
    Last night the Iron Man 2 trailer was debuted on a post-Oscars (see the night’s winners) episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live. You know, there was a moment when Johansson was cast that there was actual hate from fandom but just one look in this bit and you must repent (though Emily Blunt admittedly would have been a fine Black Widow as well–personally, I’m...

    Mangakissa – Kitchen Princess by Miyuki Kobayashi and Natsumi Ando
    The Kodansha Award-winning Kitchen Princess is a standard high school romantic drama, replete with rivalries, mixed signals, lost loves, and a happy ending.  Najika, the princess of the title, isn’t really royalty, but proves noble in the humble restaurant kitchen she uses to create food to please both patrons of the restaurant and her friends.  Yes, it’s cute and...

    Detective Comics #27 – First Batman – $1 Million
    It’s was already one hell of a week for comic book fans with a copy of Action Comics#1 soaring to a $1 Million figure in the ComicConnect Auction. I had to admit that I was wrong about 7-figures not being out there, however, I did mention if it were me, I’d spend it on another grail, a book I posted about a couple of weeks ago. It was that book that just...

    Ōoku 1 and 2 by Fumi Yoshinaga – review
    When I first stumbled upon Ōoku in the bookstore, I didn’t know what it was. I didn’t connect Fumi Yoshinaga’s name with Antique Bakery (though I should have, as she’s the manga-ka of both series), and I wasn’t clear on what the story was about (a hazard when the bookstore places a manga in the “adult” section, seemingly at random). Were I not browsing...

    Action Comics #1 – First Superman – Flies to $1 Million
    Or as any true fan would say instead, “jumps”. I talked about this comic coming for sale over at my blog last week, and looks like (if everything can be believed) that I was completely wrong, and never have I been so happy to be corrected! While I didn’t think the hobby – in current market conditions – had a 7-figure book in it that wasn’t...

    Geoff Johns confirms – Mark Strong is Sinestro in Green Lantern
    At least it seems like it. As late as a week and a half ago when we told you that Tim Robbins was cast in Green Lantern, Mark Strong was still only attached to or “in talks” to be the film’s Sinestro. According to Geoff Johns’ twitter feed (for most of you who wouldn’t know, Johns is the current writer of the Green Lantern title, and essentially...
