FUTURE QUEST, VOLUME 1 – graphic novel
GEEK OUT! THIS IS AWESOME! It is great to be in a time when it’s fashionable to admit to being a geek. In my youth I often tried to hide the fact that I was ‘into’ geeky things, but the geeks have taken charge (thanks Steve Jobs and Bill Gates) and we can cop to Continue reading

THOR: DUELING WITH GIANTS – Keith R.A. DeCandido
I think that this book is aimed at teen readers … but I’m not quite sure. There’s a fair amount of the book that follows youthful Thor, Loki, and Sif. But it’s also dense with prose story-telling.

WONDER WOMAN: AMAZON WARRIOR – Steve Korté
Ah…I remember the days when I couldn’t wait for the Scholastic book fair that the school would have once a year. As a reader of comic books, this is precisely the sort of book that I would be drawn to. It appears that Scholastic is issuing a few of these books in a “Backstories” series, Continue reading

SUPERHEROES — Rich Horton, editor
A collection of short stories: Introduction — Rich Horton “Sunlight Society” – Margaret Ronald: This isn’t really as much about superheroes as it is about advanced/integrated technology within a person. Though there does seem to be some superheroes in the society structure surrounding the story. Basically, a tech-head gains access to a highly fortified place Continue reading
