2012: The Superheroes' New Year Resolutions

The Holidays are over and 2012 started with a bang.  At least it did for some superheroes who made some very strong resolutions.  Get to know them!

AQUAMAN

BATGIRL

CAPTAIN ATOM 

MISTER TERRIFIC

VOODOO

WOLVERINE

Watch out for "The Birds"!

The most terrifying picture of our times, coming soon to a theater near you!

And don't forget to keep your canary...  well caged!

Twilight has its merit

A lot has been said about Twilight, but you can't take away that it took the whole "Emo" deal and brought it to an entirely new level.

Death was never this appealing...  or more sparkly.

Luke, Leia and Twilight

You know, there's an ongoing theme with this and it looks infinite.

Anyway.  They traveled through the skies, they belonged to some sort of royalty, they were rebels and they did also have their own plot twist.

Guess who wins.

Batman, Robin and Twilight

They live in a batcave, they have all the money in the world, they don't sparkle.

Do the math.

Hair product or soft-retcon?

Diana had to face it all, the loss of the gold in her costume, some pants that didn't last long, a new blood-thirsty attitude, a darker skin (which may look sexier but that's not how she used to be anyways) and now, her mother's hair has gone pre-Crisis blond.

But does Hippolyta have a secret?  Maybe, maybe not, only time will tell.

Who said the King was dead?

With all of the charm, all of the moves and definitely the costume to go with it, the King puts on a mask and becomes Nightwing.  Former Batman sidekick saw the limelight from a very different perspective.

Who would have thought, uh?

The Abnormals Special #1 – Having tea with the weird (a spoiler free review)

An imp from hell walks into a bar a meets an alien girl--

No, this is not a scene of The Abnormals, but it reminds you what it’s like to have some fun with the weird, with all of the imagination and none of the angst.  There was a time in comic book history when adventures were fun and the power of thought was king, when you didn’t have to worry about a story being too hurtful or if it was going to tie into a zillion of other books.  This is what The Abnormals seem to be all about.  Simple and weird fun, and hey, there’s a moment when “simple” is also good.

The Abnormals Special #1 is a study of an extremely diverse group with very unlikely characters teaming up together.  Grant Springford, the creator of The Abnormals,  got inspired in the 80’s Marvel comic books and Grant Morrison’s Doom Patrol, and you can really tell by the particular flavor of his characters.  Not wanting to spill too much about the them for you to find out, I will just say that one comes from Hell, another one seems to be an ancestor of the homo sapiens, and there’s even one who’s connected with the astral plane.  They’re set in England bringing a new edge to the British super-hero scene.

If you want to try The Abnormals, you can order it from Grant Springford’s website:  http://www.theabnormals.co.uk/ 

He also has a fanpage in Facebook that you can visit here:  http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Abnormals/117308118317046

It’s an endearing colorful  book and, definitely, a work of love on Grant Springford’s part.
