Marvel gets it but DC doesn't
Okay so there has been something on my mind for a while when it comes to digital comics and the ideas that some publishers use or don't use. One of the ideas I'm talking about is the idea of bundling issues into one graphic novel or as they are called in Comixology, Collected Editions. Marvel comics as well as IDW use this idea for their comic books in comixology and other digital comic apps but other heavyweight comic publishers like DC refuse to do the same thing and I believe it's not right.
I believe it's not right because as a comic book nerd I like it when the issues of a story are in one section or collected edition. An example of this would be the X-Men Messiah storyline when the mutants were on the verge on extinction until Hope Summers was born. That story has parts ALL OVER the X-Men universe that instead of keeping the issues separate, they combined them together to make a graphic novel and I like that because it saves time trying to switch from one comic book to the next, and it also saves money just as well.
Allow me to elaborate on this real quick for a moment. The price for book one of Uncanny X-Force (which has issues 1-4) is $6.99 plus tax on comixology, but the four issues that are in that collected book are $1.99 each, Which means that if you were to buy the single issues it would cost you $10.73 plus tax. With that in mind and the economy slowly getting back on its feet, a wise choice is to purchase the collected book instead of the individual issue and marvel understands that sometimes saving money is always good. Another example of this is Marvel Mondays on comixology which is a certain comic book series or event are selling their issues for 99 Cents each which is another great deal for the consumer.
Now DC? They don't understand that yet because they don't sell collected editions which means that when it comes to storylines and story arcs, you will be buying individual issues and you will be switching from one comic book series to another to get to the other part of the story arc. One example is Green Lantern's "War Of The Green Lanterns" storyline because the issues are scattered all over the place it's absolutely crazy why DC doesn't decide to put it all together as one collected edition and sell it for a cheaper price than to have their customers at more to get all of the individual issues.
There are multiple examples of DC comics that would benefit from a collected edition book and one of them is the Critically Acclaimed Storyline "Knightfall" which introduced Bane and the classic and memorable moment in batman history which is Bane Literally Breaking Batman in half. There are so many issues and its not just in the Batman series but also has some issues in the Detective Comics comic series. That is one book that I would love to pick up and read but only if there was a digital version of the graphic novel.
I say all this because as someone who has spent time and money to read these stories, I think it would be a great idea if every comic book publisher started making collected editions of their books. It would save time, money, and it would definitely make the consumers very happy and satisfied. Not just because they get to read these stories but also because they would be saving money in the process just as well.
So I propose that us as fans of these comics should come together and raise our collected voices and let these publishers know that they all need to start making digital collected editions of their comic books.

Really TNA?
TNA Wrestling announced yesterday its plans to launch a film production company, with its inaugural release, No Holds Barred 2, set for release in late-2012.
“TNA is much more than a wrestling company — it’s a global multimedia entertainment juggernaut,” TNA president Dixie Carter said in a press release.
“The launch of TNA Films is the next giant leap in the evolution of the TNA empire, and what better film to start with than the long-awaited sequel to No Holds Barred?”
Shooting of No Holds Barred is scheduled to begin next month, with both Hulk Hogan and Tom “Tiny” Lister reprising their roles from the original film.
The sequel will reportedly pick up where the 1989 original left off — Zeus (Lister) seeks revenge on Rip (Hogan) by kidnapping Rip’s little sister and selling her into sexual slavery on a mysterious island in the South Pacific. Rip must infiltrate the island’s heavily guarded fortress and survive a gauntlet of challenges to free his sister before battling Zeus inside a six-sided ring.
TNA Films is rumored to be considering a number of scripts for future productions including Suburban Commando: Second Strike, and Mr. Nanny Returns.
Some entertainment industry insiders have criticized TNA for relying too heavily on Hulk Hogan’s star power at the expense of young up-and-coming talent. Dixie Carter has dismissed such criticism, saying “we give fans what they want, and clearly they want Hogan.”
TNA Films is expected to be a strong competitor for WWE Films We Know WWE Sucks And Hogan Is A jerk

Avengers Vs. X-Men Review
Okay so here is the review of Marvels summer Blockbuster comic book series Avengers Vs. X-Men. The story behind this series is that The Avengers see that the Phoenix is coming back and they want to prevent that from happening where Cyclops and the remaining 200 mutants (Thanks to Scarlet Witch in House of M) are relying on Hope Summers who is being called the Mutant Messiah and will restore the Mutant Race and use the power of the Phoenix to do so. The Story progresses on and the war between the two factions commence when Cyclops and Captain America have a disagreement about who will help Hope.
Among that there are ties that are brought together, ties and bonds are severed, and others are still in the air while the fighting between the two factions are going on. While the fighting going on the Phoenix rejects hope and goes sync with Cyclops, Emma Frost, Colossus, Namor and Magik and they become the Phoenix Five and that is when havoc is really brought into the world. There are moments where your jaw will hit the floor, there are moments where you will want to flip a table, and moments where you will be like "WTFF" but it will keep you wanting to continue reading.
I suggest that if you don't wanna get the single issues of this then to wait for the graphic novel to buy and read. This series in my opinion almost lost me at one moment but I pushed on through and I'm so glad I did because I wasn't expecting the ending to end like that and the spin off comics "Uncanny Avengers" and "AvX Consequences" are looking to be good spin off comic books so read this book.
Also to get a full understanding of Avengers vs. X-Men I highly suggest you pick up the books that lead to Avengers Vs. X-Men which are House Of M, X-Men: Messiah Complex, X-Force/Cable: Messiah War and X-Men: Second Coming. Read those books in that order THEN read AvX and you will understand the full scope and scale of AvX.

Wolverine: Old Man Logan Review
Hey guys here's my review for Wolverine: Old Man Logan which was done by Mark Millar (Civil War, The Ultimates 1 and 2) and Steve McNiven. When I first heard about Old Man Logan I was skeptical because the comic nerd in me didn't wanna believe that Wolverine could be old because of his healing factor ability he couldn't age. But for the uninitiated (Shout out to the big homie 8-Bit Animal) Old Man Logan is a story 50 years in the future where Wolverine hasn't popped his claws in forever since the villains joined together and was being led by Red Skull and they attacked the heroes and took over the country and an incident that turned the most lethal hero in marvel comics history into a pacifist.
What happened was that Mysterio created an illusion that all of the villains have invaded the Xavier School and Wolverine went and killed everyone, or so he thought. When in reality he killed every Member of the X-Men including Charles Himself so Logan decides to go into hiding and decides to never pop his claws anymore.
Fast forward 50 years later and Logan is married with kids and owns a farm in California which is owned by the Hulk Gang ( yes Bruce banner is a baddy in this book) and Logan owes them money so they say he has two weeks to pay double or else. Hawkeye which is now blind but can still drive around and is still one hell of a dead eye comes to Logan for help and offers to pay Logan enough money for him to pay the hulk gang and still have some left over which leads to a cross country adventure all the way to the east coast which is owned by President Red Skull (Yes you heard me correctly, PRESIDENT RED SKULL).
I don't want to get into it anymore because I don't want to spoil anything for anyone that hasn't read it but all I'm going to say is that this book is another blockbuster hit from the brilliant mind of mark Millar and this book definitely takes you on a roller coaster ride of emotions plus there are moments where you will go OH SHIT. If you are looking for a good read then I highly recommend this book for you and you can get it for $15 on comixology if you get comics digitally or check your local comic book store just as well.
Alright my good people that's all the time I have for today so don't forget to like, comment, share and tell ya people's about this website. Stay tuned because more things are bound to come in the near future and you don't wanna miss it.

It has just been confirmed in the latest issue of Shonen Jump that edo Deidara and Edo Asuma will be playable characters in the upcoming game. Also white zetsu will be featured as an enemy during the story modes newest features hack and slash.
The hack and slash is a feature with in the story mode where you fight off certain amount of enemies during the story. And one example is when sasuke is fighting off guards during his invasion at the five Kages summit.
Also some dlc has been confirmed for the game. As most of you who are fans of naruto know, there has been a picture of naruto riding shenron from dragonball z while wearing goku's orange outfit and possessing the power pole that goku uses and this pic has been a fan favorite as the coolest "crossover" pic. Well the people of Bandai Namco and Cyber Connect 2 like it just as well so it will be available as DLC when the game comes out. No release date yet but its coming.
The game comes out March 2013 and its looking to be an awesome one. The game starts at the nine tails attack on konoha, continues on to the five Kages arc, then the shinobi war and onto later episodes of the show leading to the games release which means that Madara Uchiha might be featured in this game as Madara and not "Tobi".
Well that's all the time I have for today but stay tuned for more. One love and SHOUT OUT TO #TEAMBLACKNESSUNITED AND ALL OF THE PROJECTS THEY'RE WORKING ON
