LINK: YACB’s Second Annual CBLDF Fund Drive

David Carter of Yet Another Comics Blog (and the YACB Fantasy League where my Moon Knights have had a more pathetic season than my NY Jets) is holding his Second Annual CBLDF Fund Drive. In short: "For the period between now and December 24, if 10 people join as [Comic Book Legal Defense Fund] members at the $25 level (or higher) I will donate $250 to CBLDF."It's a great organization, and this year, he's not even requiring that you be a new member, which I was last year when I joined during his inaugural Fund Drive.$25 to a worthy cause?…

Buzzscope Reviews: 11/30/05

We're still playing with the format, but the switch to a combination of full and capsule reviews for the weekly roundup is already paying off with coverage of a few deserving comics that might not have been reviewed otherwise. This week, I go the capsule/quickee route on BLACK PANTHER #10, FEAR AGENT #2, FELL #3, G.I.JOE: SIGMA 6 #1, and X-MEN AND POWER PACK #2, while three different reviewers tee off on the lame NEW AVENGERS #13 which wraps up the over-hyped "Ronin" arc. Check it out.

The publisher tipped their hand in this week's Marvel Pulse Newsletter with the release of a new "First Look" Wallpaper featuring Finch's pinup that first appeared in Wizard magazine back in August.The tagline…

Buzzscope: Read This Way #0

Introducing Buzzscope's latest addition to the Bullpen: Tania Del Rio!READ THIS WAY #0: MY SHOUJO STORYWelcome to my new column! Now, since it’s my first one, I’m expected to give a bit of an introduction to who I am, and I how I became the writer and artist for Archie Comics’ Sabrina the Teenage Witch. But regular autobiographies can be dull and tedious, so instead, I’ll tell my tale in the form of a shoujo manga story:Meet Tania. She is the bespectacled, gawky heroine who has a wealth of dreams and yet doesn’t know how she’ll ever achieve them. She…

Buzzscope: One Year Later

My latest "Establishing Shots" column is up, a mix of reflections and resolutions. Is it my last one for Buzzscope?No, I’m not talking about DC’s universe-changing event coming up next March, but rather our own “One Year Later” story here at Buzzscope...The way I see it, our mission is to focus on the comic books, the people who create them, and the fans who buy them. Putting a spotlight on the good, calling out the bad, and creating a welcoming space to discuss and debate it all. The industry itself needs to figure out how to reach its full potential…
