This week on The Watchtower, Santa makes a special stop on the Weather Submarine! There’s presents, merriment, laughter, and of course comics!
We take a look back at some of the best books and events of 2008, as well as what to look forward to in 2009.
And it wouldn’t be The Watchtower without The Forecast, Donnie Does Trinity, and a special musical gift to you all at the end of the show.
Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!!!
What can I say about this week’s edition of The Watchtower?
The Dark Reign has fallen on the Marvel Universe as power shifts in the wake of Secret Invasion. Will it be a dynamic shift? Or a shift into third that causes you to stall out on a busy highway, careening dangerously close to a busload of tourists?
Next up, we indulge in our favourite new game, as we take a look at some of the best books to ever get the axe, and some that should be on the chopping block.
All this, plus a large-sized Donnie Does Trinity, brought to you from the Weather Submarine through the magic of digital audio!
This week on The Watchtower we talk all about (gasp!) comic books!
Marvel’s Secret Invasion rocked their universe, but will it’s follow-up, Dark Reign, be setting the same kind of records? To continue the darkness trend, X-Men Noir has sold out it’s first printing. Could this be the start of the Noir-verse?
Over on DC’s side, with Batman RIP firmly behind us, how does it all fit into Final Crisis? Grant Morrisson’s Last Rites hopes to explain all. Also, a new JLA? Or is Wizard Magazine just lying to us?
All this plus The Forecast, Donnie Does Trinity and the usual belligerence you’ve come to know and love from The Watchtower!
It’s Christmas time! And not just in Hollis, Queens!
Do you have someone on your Christmas list who is a huge comic fan? Are you a huge comic fan who is dreading the idea of another Christmas morning with only brand new socks to cheer about? Well as always, we solve all your problems on The Watchtower! We run down our list of great gifts for the comic-lover, as well as some great ideas that the comic-lover should be asking for.
Also, some little story called Batman RIP concluded this week with the (alleged) death of The Batman. Has Grant Morrison gone to far? Has Grant Morrison gone far enough? As you can imagine, we have some opinions in both camps.
All this, plus The Forecast, Donnie Does Trinity, and so much more, it can barely be contained by one internet!
