Comic Book Theater Festival – Galactic Girl Review

June 14, 2011 | | Comic Features

Sometimes we go to the theater for grand drama or literature, but it’s also nice to walk into a theater and see cute girls punching robots, and that’s what you get from Galactic Girl in Attack of the Starbarians. Running in the Brick Theater’s Comic Book Theater Festival, Galactic Girl is a very silly show, but also a very good one. It’s a lot like watching anime, but with live actors right in front of you. Galactic Girl, and her team of bubbly space babes fight bad guys, pilot space ships, and shoot laser guns thanks to some excellent stuntwork, imaginative directing, and extensive use of multimedia on a large projection screen.

Exclusive Preview Time – Trailblazer #1

June 14, 2011 | | Comic News

Here’s our second exclusive preview courtesy of Jimmy Palmiotti, in support to his new book from Image Comics entitled Trailblazer. Once again I’ve taken an excerpt from our interview with him in which he talks a little about the book. Trailblazer comes out July 6th released both in stores and digitally at Comixology.com. It’s totally different from Jonah Hex because it’s a science fiction based adventure that happens to be partly set in the old west. The basic story is about a hired killer that is forced out of hiding and has to go into a witness protection program that sends him back to the past. It’s something Justin and I came up with around 6 years ago and finally got together. The read the interview in it’s entirely check it out here.

Exclusive Preview Time – Book Smart #1

June 14, 2011 | | Comic News

What’s better than having an exclusive interview with Jimmy Palmiotti? Nothing, but having two exclusive preivews of his upcoming releases is a close second. The first is Book Smart and I’ll let the man himself tell you all about it. Booksmart is an 88 page graphic novel Justin and I wrote and Juan Santacruz illustrated. It’s basically a fish out of water story about an American girl who loses her memory while on a trip in Nepal and the adventure she has trying to figure out who she is and why she is even there in the first place. I was editing a bunch of books for Kickstart during their initial launch and Justin and I decided to pitch this idea to them and they loved it. It’s one of many of their graphic novels that have done…all of them aimed at an all age’s group of readers. It’s solicited this month and we are very happy with the way it came out. There is nothing like picking up a book and having a beginning, middle and an end. Read the rest of the interview here!
