MOON KNIGHT ends once again
As a kid, I liked (adored!) Doug Moench as well as expense Sienkiewicz’s Moon Knight book. It was absolute dark-hero bliss, as well as whatever I desired Batman to be but, at the time, what Batman just wasn’t. Brian Michael Bendis as well as Alex Maleev’s Moon Knight book is at least the seventh “reboot” of the title because the very first one, as well as now this is ending at #12. I haven’t liked this run, however I haven’t hated it, either. as well as at least it was different. Previous reboots have tried to make the character into different levels of dark/violent/psycho. They haven’t all been poor (but a number of were), however those that weren’t poor weren’t all good, either. THE top five MOON KNIGHT RUNS 5. early Appearances. Moon Knight started in 1975 as a man with parachute sleeves who hunted Werewolves. developed by Doug Perlin,…

10 reasons TO DIG ARCADE terminate COVERS
1. naive Melody-Arcade terminate (Talking heads cover). Canada’s The Arcade terminate are the reason I got into blogging. When I very first heard “Funeral” I believed was so new, so different, so vastly separate from anything I was listening to at the time that I believed people had to understand about this record. then I realized it truly wasn’t so different, when I heard this cover. All AF did was take The speaking Heads’ sense of paranoia as well as like of all things human, as well as bring it into the far a lot more complicated, far scarier 21st Century. 2. Crown of Love-This is Ivy League. nothing Arcade terminate does is small. They make arena songs–big, soaring, crucial things. however this cover flips that on its head. 3. Maps-Arcade terminate (Yeah yes Yeahs cover). one of my all-time preferred cover tunes ever. I desire somebody would blend it…
Another reason to own Your Art
Marvel’s latest “let’s sell comics as collectibles instead of stories” alternate-cover scheme is rather blatant in the way it’s cashing in.

IN THE middle OF THE night by STILL corners as well as YOU stated strange by salvation prayer
When the title track of “In the middle of the Night” began, I believed I was listening to a Pink Floyd cover band. Musically as well as tonally, the tune seems like an update of Breathe, from the seminal album Dark Side of the Moon. however no. This is an all-original work by London synth-poppers Still Corners, a collection of smooth, neatly executed hipsways. On a similar note, however with more edge, salvation prayer draws its motivation from bands like Oasis (I’m assuming), as well as is more like a lighter version of heavy psych (if that makes sense), however I likewise discovered the droning guitars to be meditative as well as trancelike. Two solid albums. listen below. Still corners will be touring in support of their new release: 9/6/2018 – Philadelphia, PA – Johnny Brenda’s 9/7/2018 – Norfolk, VA – Charlie’s American Cafe 9/8/2018 – Raleigh, NC – Hopscotch…
ANT-MAN: LANG VS. PYM
Scott Lang’s Ant-Man was a substantial hit in not one but three movies; Civil War, Ant-Man, and Ant-Man and the Wasp. now it has been several years considering that Ant-Man first graced the MCU and it still seems very fresh and fun with lots of energy. just take a look at the last movie: Ant-Man and the Wasp had very hip cast and writing. has this small hero returned large profits, or has this crucial tumbled and fallen from earlier highs? marvel Premiere #47 is the first appearance of Scott Lang as Ant-man and his origin story. The top grade (9.8) mint is going for $600 FMV and the last real sale was well above that at $948. This is a great sign as the FMV is below real value, possibly indicating growth. That current (9.8) has returned 21.3% over the last 107 sales with max tracking of up to 10,000 sales.…
DOTT-Swoon
I dislike to compare an Irish band to the Cranberries, but Dott has a similar glossy, upbeat sound and it’s fronted by a woman with a ferocious voice, so the comparison is, I suppose, inevitable. Good stuff–check it out.
