11 CBR Exclusives We’re Down to Hulk If You Know What We Mean (We Mean Sex)

Like so many comics lovers, we are a bunch of horny fucks here at Loser City, so we decided to count down the top 11 CBR-exclusive stories we’d bone if they were people. Because that’s normal. Totally normal. We’re not like the other sites out there, but if we have anything in common with them, […]

Comics (Critics) Should Be Decent: Yet Another Discourse About Discourse

Comics (Critics) Should Be Decent: Yet Another Discourse About Discourse

Last year, Kim O’Connor and I teamed up to dig into some of the reasons why a lot of people in comics get so burned out on the medium. We called it a “discourse about discourse” and now here we are again, still feeling burned out and having yet another discourse about discourse, except this […]

Can Mister Miracle Escape a Flawed Premise Scot-Free?

Can Mister Miracle Escape a Flawed Premise Scot-Free?

Content Warning: Any substantial discussion of Mister Miracle will involve the subjects of depression, suicide, and self-harm. Mister Miracle has been available for less than a week and already CBR has positioned it as the second coming to save comics from itself and Tucker Stone has knocked them down a peg or ten; that comics […]

Fluid Exchange: I Roved Out by Rupert Everton

Since their origin, comics have proven extremely adaptable and with that in mind, it’s no wonder that their history has long been tied up with sex. From the hidden but long established connection to pornography that the Big Two have to Tijuana Bibles to R. Crumb, comics have never been dissociated from sex, yet we […]

Comics Needs to Call Out Harassment by Pros as Often it Does with Fans

Comics Needs to Call Out Harassment by Pros as Often it Does with Fans

Spend enough time looking at comics harassment controversies and you’ll quickly notice what all of the ones that get attention from pros in comics have in common: fandom. As this week’s Marvel Milkshake incident proved, comics pros are usually willing to speak up about harassment when it’s coming from fans irate over things as benign […]

Running Blood is a Thrilling Mash-Up of Vampires and Grand Theft Auto

Running Blood is a Thrilling Mash-Up of Vampires and Grand Theft Auto

Like most grindhouse masterpieces, Jonathan Brandon Sawyer and Christopher Sebela’s Running Blood is at its best when it’s mobile, chasing a giddy, concise concept to its bloody conclusion. In this case, that concept is a vampire getaway driver, given one last job by a mysterious employer who needs a package delivered to Tijuana in exactly four […]

Why Does Image’s Vision of the Future of Comics Mostly Center Around Exploiting Queer Voices?

July 3, 2017 By Nick Hanover Leave a Comment

Why Does Image’s Vision of the Future of Comics Mostly Center Around Exploiting Queer Voices?

For the past month or so, the key buzzword in comics has been “conversation.” At some point, the problem children of comics realized that shock was a loaded term and they needed to find a new way to absolve themselves of blame and guilt any time a questionable work of theirs received intense scrutiny and […]

What Conversation is Image Actually Willing to Listen to with Divided States of Hysteria?

What Conversation is Image Actually Willing to Listen to with Divided States of Hysteria?

Having even a slight interest in comics while being active on Twitter means witnessing more or less nonstop conversation about the industry, its works and the creators living within it. Comics is in a state of constant discourse, partially because even as its impact on culture grows, its world remains unbelievably small, making it easy […]

Pop Rehabilitation: Constantine

Pop Rehabilitation: Constantine

Not content to let their pop passions go unloved by the masses, Loser City staff have banded together to provide Pop Rehabilitation to the works that have been unjustly maligned and forgotten. Today Nick Hanover makes the case that Constantine is the best film DC has made this century, regardless of how hard they now try to pretend […]

Garbage Night is an Expressive, Emotionally Rich Post-Apocalyptic Work

May 24, 2017 By Nick Hanover Leave a Comment

Garbage Night is an Expressive, Emotionally Rich Post-Apocalyptic Work

Given Hollywood’s propensity for revisiting classic, beloved works and giving them a twist, it’s a little odd to me that no one has rebooted Homeward Bound as a Life After People-style post-apocalyptic work. But that’s okay, because Jen Lee is nicely filling that void with her new work Garbage Night and its predecessor Vacancy. Where Hollywood would likely still […]
