SPOILERS: Review: Six-Gun Gorilla #6 - Follow Up

By -

Hey, Geeks and Geekettes, I guess this'll be the week for follow-ups on series we've reviewed before. This one will be on the conclusion to the mini-series from BOOM! Studios.

Writer: Simon Spurrier
Artist: Jeff Stokely






Now, if you guys remember way back during Weird West Week, I reviewed this comic as well a others, you can find that here. As I said then, the first time I read about this comic and it's concept, I was largely skeptical. I thought it sounded like a silly idea and not anything I was even remotely interested in - however, it was getting a lot of press, so I decided to try the first issue. I was immediately hooked. The emotion behind the story itself, the message of the overall plot, the way the characters come to live and make you genuinely care bout them is just astonishing. The ending to this serious couldn't be better. This is not the ending you WANT, but it's the ending the story NEEDED. I loved every panel. I won't spoil this issue too much for you, but I will say there are some serious stand-up-and-cheer moments, when some of the folks get exactly what they've had coming to them. 

ABSOLUTELY pick up this mini-series, I'm sure it'll be in trade form soon. 
I give this book a solid 
5 out of 5 Gorilla Sized Six Shooters

Spider-Man vs Batman

By -
So we've got two more big Superhero movies coming out. The Spider-Man reboot. And! The Dark Knight Rises. I'm not anywhere near as excited about these two as I have been The Avengers. But I've been hearing all kinda of "Batman's gonna kick Spider-Man's ass!" and "Batman's gonna blow The Avengers out of the water!" And I'm here to throw in my 2cents. No way in hell is Batman gonna reach the Avengers. But I will argue over Spider-Man. Spider-Man is a far more kid-friendly franchise than this Batman trilogy has been. Spider-Man has seen a lot more advertising than DKR has. DKR will forever be the sequel to Heath Ledger's last movie. It might do better than the Crow sequels, but will suffer from the same stigmas. It will forever be compared to the one before it, Bane will forever be measured up against Joker, and it will always been seen lacking. Unless the guy playing Bane bites it before the movie releases. DKR looks very serious, brood...

Superman/Wonder Woman #1 Writer: Charles Soule Artist: Tony S. Daniel I haven't ever been a big supporter of these two as a couple. I just didn't think they meshed well together; and I grew up with Lois Lane being the love of Clark Kent's life. It's like watching your Dad go on a date with a woman who's not your Mother, but is instead your favorite teacher or something. You love everyone involved, you're just not sure you love what the way they're doing things. As far as Diana goes, I actually loved her with Bruce in the Justice League cartoons. I thought it was a fun a dynamic, they were similar in their ways of thinking enough that I could see the draw, the attraction. Diana and Clark are too different. Diana is a warrior. Clark isn't. But that's just my opinion and has nothing to do with this comic! Which, by the way, is actually amazing! And it makes me think that maybe, just maybe, this relationship might not be as bad as I think it is. Clark is...

WORLD EXCLUSIVE Q&A w/ Creator of Browncoats: Independence War

What. What. WHAT. That's right. The boys of Geekin' grabbed the ear of none-other than Francis Hamada, creator of the fan-freaking-tastic Firefly fan-film, Browncoats: Independence War. Mr. Hamada was amazing enough to take the time to answer a few of our (and your!) questions about his film. For the first time anywhere, right here on Geekin', you'll read about Browncoats: Independence War and what went into making this movie. Retinax-5 and I are self-proclaimed "process junkies" for comic books, but that extends to other mediums as well. Getting to pick Mr. Hamada's brain about the whys and hows of making this fan film were a real treat and very cool to get to read back. On top of answering our (and your!) questions, Mr. Hamada gave us the rare privilege of getting to watch a pre-post version of the film. I'm not telling you this just to brag, though that's there too, but to bring you first hand knowled...
