The teaser images for The Movement and its sister title, Green Team: Teen Trillionaires, worried me slightly.

I don’t even…what did I just…wait. I’ll start again. I hate it when, asked by an acquaintance, I describe one of my interests as “comics”.

Iron Man Three. Yes - you heard me. Three. Not Iron Man 3. Three. This is the official title for the latest outing of Tony Stark’s (Robert Downey Jr) alter-ego…

Ever wondered who would win a fight between Superman and Batman? Or Wonder Woman and Green Lantern?

Hannibal The show focuses on Will Graham (Hugh Dancy), a young profiler who has a certain “gift”, one that he seems to see more as a curse than anything else.

The brainchild of Warren Ellis and Darick Robertson, “Transmetropolitan” throws a lot of people with its name. Several people apparently believe it has something to do with metro-sexuality and present day New York. This could not be further from the truth, and if you have not heard or indeed read this graphic novel, do it. I cannot give it higher praise, being a huge fan of gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson.

Straight to the point: It made me laugh, was genuinely creepy and often quite uncomfortable viewing, just like the original.

My local comic book shop sold out in three days, copies are selling on ebay for ten times their original sale price, and unbelievably, it’s not even issue one…

Considering the number of graphic novel reviews I’m doing that are under the ‘Vertigo’ label, I feel that I should be on their pay roll (I swear I’m not). It’s just that all the series they produce, I really like. Whether it’s “100 bullets”, “Y: The Last Man”, “DMZ” or “Transmetropolitan”, they have one thing in common, they are exceedingly well written and drawn.
