GHOSTBUSTERS: Deviations REVIEW

(Joshua Gilmore- Staff Writer)

In the world of comic books, even the unsure readers will understand the concepts of alternate timelines and universes. When a storyline gets looked at from a different angle or a character has a change of morals, these deviations can take a classic story down a completely different route.

During a 5 week event, the creative minds at IDW Publishing have picked 5 chart topping comic book franchises and they are looking at one of their key elements from a skewed view. One of the comics to get this one-shot treatment is the “Ghostbusters” and in this world the Ghostbusters NEVER CROSSED THE STREAMS!

idw-deviations-ghostbusters-aa

As much as this is a monumental moment is the Ghostbuster’s history, this is a monumental road to take for this one-shot issue and the story is built in the classic Ghostbuster’s form. The chemistry of the characters are intact, but without their victorious moment, the guys are trapped in an unknown limbo. The New York, they know and love is replaced by mass hysteria. The hysteria is in the form of an unwanted guest that has stayed far past its welcome.

The story, that was written by Kelly Thompson (better known for her work on Jem and the Holograms), is constructed in a great way that will allow the newest Ghostbusters reader to jump right into the stream and the veteran fans will enjoy the alternate view of one the franchises most iconic moment.

The art for this issues was created by Nelson Daniel (known for his work in the Judge Dredd series) and Daniel’s excellent work continues the visual standard set by the Ghostbusters comic book series.

I would definitely recommend this alternate view at this Ghostbuster’s moment, as it transcends the pages and asks the fan to take a different look at this iconic moment in pop culture history. In the end, I will give “Ghostbusters:Deviations” a 8 out of 10.

GHOSTBUSTERS: Deviations is available March 16th

The Wait Is Over.. Finally, A First Look At Wonder Woman..

(Joshua Gilmore-Staff Writer)

In a night of amazing DC first looks, the CW Network and the “Dawn of the Justice League” event have given us a gift that has been many years in the making. Tonight, we finally saw Diana Prince emerge from the darkness of pre-production hell and the world finally got their first look at the movie “Wonder Woman”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LuOvq2bD8hM

As you can tell from the footage, we are going to get an origin story and the evolution of Diana Prince into Wonder Woman. It’s insane to think about how long this franchise has laid dormant and the multiple “failed” attempts at bringing this icon to the silver screen, but the emergence of Gal Gadot could be that long missing piece to the puzzle.

Nowhere California’s coverage of the 2015 Stan Lee’s Comikaze Convention is almost over and it’s time to revisit a friend from our conventions past.

Back in 2013, the guys from Nowhere made their way to Long Beach to cover the 5th Annual Long Beach Comic and Horror Convention. At this event, the guys talked to a lot of talented people and decided to record several interviews with some individuals from the independent comic book world..

As we talked to these great artists and creators, one conversation stood out and that was with the creator of “Oh, Hell..” George Wassil. The story of the creation and ideas behind his comic stood out to the guys from Nowhere, so a creative friendship was born.

Since that first meeting, both projects evolved and the opportunity to cross paths presented itself at the Comikaze event, so..

‘Twas the night before the trailer and all through the internet, not a creature was stirring but a Merc with a mouth. The time has finally arrived and we are at the eve of the new Deadpool trailer.

Today is the 11th day of the marvelous 12 days of Deadpool and our day started with a ghost of Deadpool past..

Wolverine, Deadpool’s fellow WEAPON X survivor, decided to commandeer the festivities and treat us to this special image. As everyone remembers, the last time we saw these two together was in the conclusion of the X-Men Origins: Wolverine and the Merc with the Mouth didn’t exactly have a mouth. It’s nice to see this twosome together under better terms.

Now for the main attraction of the 11th day of the 12 days of Deadpool and an appetizer for tomorrow’s new Deadpool trailer..

The excitement is reaching its peak, we received a new TV spot and some truth behind the Easter egg we discovered from Day 7 (Hopefully, this isn’t the last time we’ll see Wolverine), but the main event is only a few hours away.

Ignore your loved ones and stay locked in, as we will hit the final day of the 12 days of Deadpool. Christmas Day will bring onto the world a brand spanking new Deadpool trailer!!

The light is starting to come into view and we are getting close to the grand finale of the magnanimous 12 days of Deadpool. Today is day 9 and Deadpool has teamed up with the giant at IMAX to unleash this piece of art onto the world…

If you can’t tell, this is the exclusive IMAX poster for DEADPOOL. IMAX has released some impressive posters in the past and that tradition continues with this masterpiece.

Also, speaking of masterpieces, IMAX released a special teaser to remind everyone that size is very important..

The excitement is reaching a fever pitch, as we are in the final 3 days of this journey and we still have some great gifts to receive. Tomorrow, the man behind the Merc with the Mouth will be delivering our next gift.

2 hours, 2 minutes it’s the same thing in the internet world.

Here we go, so here is what we came across in the podcave at Nowhere California HQ. When you open the Deadpool Core email and scroll through the message, you get a few laughs and important information about Deadpool’s year, but there is a little  more.

We randomly clicked on the image and was sent to this YouTube clip..

This is a very interesting clip to pick and, as I write this, it can only be considered rumors..

– Niagara Falls is mentioned throughout the clip. When you search Deadpool’s history with this location, you will find this…

-This next part is very important and I’ll keep it simple. Moe (the straight man) calls Curly (the crazy guy) Bub throughout this clip. Now, when you jump into Deadpool’s world, who calls Deadpool (the crazy guy) BUB!

Are you the black sheep of the family? If you are, this time of year might bring upon the annoying family newsletter. These newsletters are your family’s way to catch you up on their important events of the year or, in most cases, show off how their lives are better than yours.

In today’s installment of the massive 12 Days of Deadpool, everyone’s favorite holiday avenger takes his shot at the tortured holiday tradition…

dp_newsletter_email_2_01

If you signed your life away at deadpoolcore.com, you received the full sized holiday newsletter in its total glory. Also, you received a special spring time treat in the form of a possible Easter egg. I will not give things away at this time, but you might want to slowly turn to Niagra Falls to find this one.

If you are staring at your screen confused, I will reveal what I found in 2 Hours. Since, I want to give everyone time to find this.

This has been an exciting Day 7 for the 12 Days of Deadpool. As always, stay locked in to your computer for tomorrow’s installment that will be delivered by MASHABLE.com
