It's a metaphor for the state of comic book movies.
Pete Kilmer has been in the comics retail industry for ten years as a member of Downtown Comics in Indianapolis. Downtown Comics is one of the Midwest's largest comic retailers with over four locations in Indianapolis. All opinions are his own, and they cannot be bought with free swag. Beer and a walk on role on Chuck to steal Sarah from Chuck and I'm bought.

Well, the big news over the past week in the comic world is the leak of the Wolverine movie that was apparently 95% completed. Hopefully, everyone who wants to see it will wait until it hits the theaters so that we can have more comic book movies. As long as they prove to be profitable, they'll keep making them.

On to the books...Star Trek Countdown: The Trade hits this week and I highly recommend it before you see the movie. Lots of Wolverine trades are released this week as well to get you ready for the upcoming movie...and Marvel Zombies 3 hits in HC along with the new Marvel Zombies mini series! Can't wait!
