Short Packed: Square Enix Explosion

By melissa | Published: January 30, 2011

By Chris Troy I remembering pointing out some time last year (post New York Comic Con) that Square-Enix’s Play Art division is schedule to explode in terms of non- Final Fantasy related content. That’s finally come to be, as FPNYC has been hit with a ton of new Square Enix product not related to the RPG monster (For the record though, all 3 waves of the Final Fantasy 13 Play Art Kai are in stock, and are fairly awesome)

Transformers 2010 Hailstorm Review

By shervin | Published: January 30, 2011

By Loran New characters, new characters, new characters! Once again Hasbro adds a new character to the Decepticon ranks. Instead of going with a 100% new character, this time Hasbro has gone with sort of an homage to something very unexpected-a reference to a comic-only character from Generation 2! While a later incarnation of the mold actually shared that character’s name, he’s… nothing really like that guy, in terms of backstory or personality. So forget all that

Free Comics Review for 01/26/11

By | Published: January 28, 2011

Welcome to another edition of Free Comics Review ! The big news this week is that ComiXology is going to partner up with local retailers, so you can get your digital comics from there, as opposed to the comfort of your home. Yeah, it doesn’t make sense to me either. In any case, we have another big haul this week, with plenty of free comics.
