Cyanide and Happiness: Punching Zoo TPB

Posted by Geek-o-Rama Admin on 12:00 PM

Punching Zoo includes a buttload of our favorite comics from the site, 30 brand-new, too-hot-for-the-Internet comics, “The Hot Date” (a choose-your-own-adventure where you decide the story), and a nice forward by Alexis Ohanian, one of the founders of reddit.

At some point or another, you’ve probably read one of the many webcomic strips from Cyanide and Happiness.  It’s almost unavoidable if you spend any considerable amount of time on the internet.  Not that you’d want to avoid them, because let’s face it, they are hilarious.  Now with Punching Zoo, you have a whole boatload of them collected in one TPB, along with new ones we’ve never seen!

Cyanide and Happiness is comedy in its rawest and most blatantly honest form, holding absolutely nothing back with every new comic that gets released.  It can and probably has touched upon almost every topic imaginable and finds a way to turn it into a joke.  For this very reason, some people just can’t handle this insanely popular webcomic.  It can be dark, it can be seriously inappropriate, but when it comes down to it, these comics look to give us all a much needed laugh.

There’s not much to be said about the artwork with Cyanide and Happiness.  I mean, everything is stick figures and basic illustrations.  All of that simplicity aside, they still manage to make a good effort at actual facial expressions and other details to get the point across.

If you can appreciate humor that pushes every envelope no matter how wrong it is, Punching Zoo is totally a book for you.  Whether you’ve seen all or (somehow) none of the webcomic, this title should certainly be on your grab list for more laughs than I can say.  Although, it goes without saying that it should be high up on your bookshelf so the young ones can’t get their grubby paws on it.

Billy the Pyro 1

Posted by Geek-o-Rama Admin on 9:00 AM

Billy the Pyro is a not-so-normal coming of age story. Having to deal with his abusive and troubled past, Billy tries to just get by any way he can. That’s all about to change though as Billy soon finds out that he has been genetically altered by a government research institute called GAPRI (Genetic Alteration and Pyrokinesis Research Institute). Now able to produce and control fire, Billy teams up with GAPRI to help fight and protect those from past experiments gone wrong.

More often than not, having superhuman powers doesn’t always come with a glorious back story.  You’re usually just a regular person, dealing with your life as best you can.  Then all of a sudden BAM, you can walk through walls or fly.  We definitely get an unfortunate history with Billy the Pyro, as the life he struggles through is certainly less than glorious.  Only time will tell whether the unexpected change that occurs will make it any better.

The book starts off as an average story of a troubled teen in an abusive household, but rapidly picks up.  Billy also just happens to be a pyromaniac on top of all his domestic issues.  Throw in a mysterious agency looking guy and the realization that you can create fire, and you have the formula for an interesting first issue.  One has to wonder though, was it pyromania all this time or just his powers trying to reveal themselves?

With a story involving superpowers, particularly involving fire, you’d expect the artwork to be strong and vibrant.  That’s exactly what we are kindly given in the book, with very clean lineart and bright colors.  This is especially true of scenes depicting flames, and in some cases, infernos.

I’ve always enjoyed superhumans and special powers as much as the next fan.  Sometimes it just needs a slightly different approach like they've done here to draw in the curiosity of the reader.  This title shows promise if they keep it up, and should be one to keep your eye on.

For more information on Billy the Pyro, check out Alterna Comics.

Bruce Campbell to Join PHXCC 2014

Posted by Katie on 2:08 PM

Phoenix Comicon is proud to announce that actor Bruce Campbell will be attending Comicon 2014. 

Bruce Campbell is an American actor who is best known for his character of Ash Williams in the cult horror Evil Dead series of movies.
“We are very excited to announce our first guest for Phoenix Comicon 2014 as Bruce Campbell,” says Convention Director Matt Soberg.
Campbell burst onto the scene in 1981's The Evil Dead, in which he is part of a group of college kids staying at a remote cabin in the woods when demonic shenanigans begin to unfold. Despite its low budget, the film went on to become one of the the most iconic cult horror movies and help to launch the careers of both Campbell, and his friend and director, Sam Raimi. Campbell would reprise the role of Ash  for sequels, Evil Dead 2 (1987) and Army of Darkness (1992).

In addition to the Evil Dead series of movies, Campbell has also had roles in major studio movies Congo (1995) and Escape From L.A. (1996). He also co-starred on the television series Burn Notice as Sam Axe, which aired from 2007-2013.


Campbell is also an accomplished voice actor, has dabbled in directing and his 2002 autobiography, If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B Movie Actor  became a New York Times Best Seller. He will reprise his famous Ash Williams character for the upcoming Army of Darkness 2 movie.

Phoenix Comicon is the signature pop culture experience of the southwest. Comicon is presenting guests and programming for hobbyists by attracting the top segments of the comics, anime, sci-fi, film, tv, and gaming industries. Entering its twelfth year, Phoenix Comicon is expected to draw over 65,000 attendees to its June 5-8, 2014 convention held at the Phoenix Convention Center and Hyatt Regency in Downtown Phoenix.
