About Nick Hanover

Nick Hanover got his degree from Disneyland, but he’s the last of the secret agents and he’s your man. Which is to say you can find his particular style of espionage here at Loser City as well as Ovrld, where he contributes music reviews and writes a column on undiscovered Austin bands. You can also flip through his archives at Comics Bulletin, which he is formerly the Co-Managing Editor of, and Spectrum Culture, where he contributed literally hundreds of pieces for a few years. Or if you feel particularly adventurous, you can always witness his odd .gif battles with Dylan Garsee on twitter: @Nick_Hanover

Video of the Week: Iska Dhaaf “Everybody Knows”

April 11, 2014 By Nick Hanover Leave a Comment

Iska Dhaaf Everybody Knows

Apocalypse Now has been rereleased so many times and filled with so much rediscovered “lost” footage that it wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest if Iska Dhaaf’s video for “Everybody Knows” found it way into a future release as a “remastered” version of the bleakly comic USO scene. Apart from it not having the graininess of […]

Anatomy of a Page: Ogden Whitney’s Herbie #2 Page 4

April 10, 2014 By Nick Hanover 2 Comments

Comics are a visual medium, but so often criticism of the medium hinges on narrative, ignoring or minimizing the visual storytelling and unique structures that make comics so different from cinema and photography. We’ve decided to change that up with a feature in Loser City that we’re calling Anatomy of a Page, in which we explore pages […]

Second Chances: Nicolas Cage Proves He’s Still Got It with Joe

April 10, 2014 By Nick Hanover 2 Comments

Joe Nicolas Cage David Gordon Green

It’s fitting that Nicolas Cage’s reputable acting career is getting yet another second chance through a film all about second chances. David Gordon Green’s Joe, the eclectic director’s first collaboration with the even more eclectic Cage, is a slow burning exploration of masculinity and poverty in the South based off a novel by Larry Brown that details […]
