Oh snaps! It looks like somebody survived the explosion. But what does this mean? You’ll have your answers soon enough.
But for now, we’ve come to the end of the arc. Something that I’m doing now that I have a few projects up and running, is to take a full week break after each arc is […]
In today’s Lost Toast we finally catch a glimpse inside the Amazing Comics building. But it isn’t the first time Amazing Comics has been seen on the interwebs.
Click here for a story I did well over a year and a half ago at ComiXtreme.com. You’ll be reading more of this series when PulpHaus Periodicals goes […]
Well, my first Con experience turned out to be very good. I met a lot of artists and writers that are super awesome, and didn’t end up making a fool out of myself in front of any of them.
…
Okay, I may have involuntarily danced a jig when I found out Jason Armstrong was selling artwork […]

“Baby, I’m like Jesus. Prepare for the second coming.”
C’est Gronk is the random comic review feature at Lost Toast of dubious timing. Much like the title, there is little rhyme or reason to when the reviews show up, how legitimate they are or what length they will be. Try the hummus, it is splendid.
Hazed GN
by Mark Sable, Robbi Rodriguez, Nick Filardi and Kristyn […]
C’est Gronk is the random comic review feature at Lost Toast of dubious timing. Much like the title, there is little rhyme or reason to when the reviews show up, or what length they will be. Also, you might contract AIDS. Easy does it.
Invincible Presents: Atom Eve #2 - In which one of the best […]

Criminal Vol. 2 #1 (Icon/Marvel)
by Ed Brubaker, Sean Phillips, and Val Staples.
And so finally, a new issue of Criminal […]
I did a small review of this book over at ComiXtreme, but this title really deserves all the exposure it can get, sooo…
The Nearly Infamous Zango #1 (Absolute Tyrant)
By Rob Osborne
How does Indie Hero Rob Osborne follow a book about World Domination and another about a retirement community? By combining the two into one of […]
If you feel like you’ve missed any strips recently, it’s probably because you have. We’ve gone daily to celebrate the 4th anniversary of the strip, and bring all the storylines to a head by the end of March.
You’ve been warned!
…in my yard. There’s been some competition, but these results are promising.
(It should be noted that I did not, in fact, create the graph, nor do I know who did. But it’s fricken’ Awesome)
I have some very talented friends - much more talented than myself - and they’ve got a lot of great stuff out there that you can actually fit in your hands. Check it out:
Andrea Speed - she of In Absentia fame - has a book out called Alone with the Dead. I’m about halfway through […]
There’s going to be a large chunk of content hopping your way on Sunday, so let’s just get a few of these out of the way.
Amazing Spider-Man #549 (Marvel Comics)
You know what’s great about Spider-Man now? He’s fun again. This book is a genuine joy to read, and has been ever since the Spider-Man parts […]
I’ve closed up the comic shop for another day, and have returned home with my spoils. What looks good? Well, lots! In no particular order, here are some items of note:
Wildstorm Revelations #3 (Wildstorm/DC)
In which we return to Tranquility! A quick flip says that the entire issue takes place in Gail Simione and Neil Googe’s […]
So what happens to show up at the comic shop in the freebie pile today? Something called “Return of the Super Pimps”. So yeah, I’m going to HAVE to review that, because… seriously, how can that not be awesome?
Lost Toast is still ramping up to something big. It’s going to bring EVERYTHING to a close. […]
…for comics released on Jan 30th, 2008.
This week was a white-knuckler in terms of figuring out which book got the top marks. Go below the fold for the good.
5. Captain America #34 (Marvel Comics)
When Captain America throws his mighty shield…
All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield!!!!
And that’s all you need to know.
4. […]
Reviews? Psh. If I wanted to be constructive, I’d post elsewhere. The Sunday Round-Up is all about what my comics made me feel in my awesome gland during the week - nothing more, nothing less. As always, we save the best until Monday, so check back then for the goodest of the good. Until then…
Ultimate […]
I’ve noticed a problem with the comic book blogosphere - all the people what comment about the comic book industry on their blogs. For the most part? They are all. Mostly. Negative.
These are people who enjoy the medium so much that they take huge chunks of time to write about that enjoyment online for you, […]
Through sleet and rain and snow - my reviews don’t go through! Each week, I usually have some overflow to get to comics-wise, so I figured… new feature covering the formerly forgotten! Let’s get to it.
Young Avengers Presents #1 (Marvel Comics)
This better mean that the new Young Avengers series is coming down the pike soon. […]
Generic name? Indeed, but let’s not split hairs. I’m fairly new at this comic blogging thing. Maybe in time I will be awesome.
So, the comic shop is closed for the night, and I’m home with this week’s stuff. What looks exciting?
Wormwood, Gentleman Corpse: Calamari Rising #1 (IDW)
Ben Templesmith returns to my favourite sentient-worm-that-is-piloting-a-corpse! It hasn’t […]
#3 - Afterburn #1 (Red 5 Comics)
This issue starts with the sun melting half of the earth and ends with a fight involving mutant pirate gangs and Chinese Death Sharks. To say that I didn’t enjoy such a book would be ridiculous. Heck - when all is said and done, every single book in the […]
Who is the baddest motherfucker to ever walk the face of the earth?
Aww yeah.
What’s there to say? Stuff was really good this week.
Blue Beetle #23 (DC Comics)
Although this certainly isn’t as cataclysmic as the Sinestro Corps storyline was, it certainly follows the same golden rules that make for awesome comics. Step one: lay the ground work. Tell some fun, small stories, and get yourself a playground. Step two, […]
This is why I can’t deal with message boards sometimes.
So I’m thinking of turning Lost Toast into the hub for all of my comic talk. I’ve long since abandoned the idea of being a highly functional member of a comic book discussion forum. After all, I am a rational human being with rational thoughts. I have no business living on a comic book forum. […]
In looking at how people are getting to this site, I discovered someone found this place by looking up “Origin of the Safety Dance”.
Which means I should get back on the Das Ubercast wagon, yeah?
Yesterday, I finished the 4th strip for May 2008. Seriously, May is going to make. You. Lose. Your. Shit.
No, I’m not actually done every strip up until that point. They are all loosely plotted (I know about how long each idea is going to take) to lead up to May, with a mailable amount of […]
Not much meat to this at the moment - hopefully in the future, I’ll be making this blog more comic and life centric. For now, here’s just a list of books that rocked my socks (in no particular order). Hup!
The Umbrella Academy #5 (HOLY SHIT!)
Amazing Spider-Man #547 (Best straight Spider-Man story in years.)
Angel: After the […]
So, working at this comic shop, when I get a phone call from Dave Sim. DAVE SIM!! Creator, artist and indie God responsible for all 300 issues of Cerebus. He was basically doing a phone around to all the Canadian retailers, to chat about his new series coming out in April - and I completely […]
