Marvel giving CM Punk writing duties on ‘Drax’ ongoing series
CM Punk has gone from writing installments in a Thor annual to getting his own ongoing series. The dude is quickly climbing the ranks of Marvel writers. Much like he did in #crappywrestlingreference but won’t find himself doing in #crappyMMAreference, no matter how hard he tries! #CrapFinish
DC confirms ‘The Dark Knight III: The Master Race’ for 2015

X-Forceful Assembling Avengers and so forth.
Marvel introduces ‘A-Force Presents’, a bi-monthly female-led anthology
Dope news for those hankering for some female-led Marvel tales. While the company has been doing good work in expanding their roster of female superheroes, they’re also doubling down and providing easy access for those looking to get into the tales.
Oni Press opening up electronic submissions in May. This is the best.
Oni Press is going to begin accepting electronic submissions and pitches in May, which is gnarly as fuck. As I told my brother in an excited text, if he doesn’t submit OMNI, I will for him!
