Hi, I’m Paul. Self-Confessed Sci-Fi Geek , Dr Who fan & Zombie Disposal Expert, I like Movies, Comic Books, and all things PS4. I’m also a writer at Dark Media Online. I would love to write a novel one day, and I also enjoy chatting to the many people I have got to know on Twitter (Where you can follow me @paul_bowler). My blog also has a Facebook page at Sci-Fi Jubilee Facebook and I have a new YouTube Channel Paul Bowler YouTube so if you want to like or subscribe to either of those you are most welcome. When I’m not busy being an Impossible Astronaut, I like to take a break from my adventures in time & space to enjoy some of my favourite TV shows & movies – preferably with a nice cuppa tea & a sandwich!

Thank you so much for visiting my site and liking my articles on a daily basis as well as commenting on the articles! I hope I can do this more often for you, too ;-). As I’ve started reading more comics (and covering them in my articles), this will be the case, I think!
You’re welcome and thank you very much as well. I cover films, TV, and Comics, so hopefully there will be lots of things you’ll find to enjoy as well.
All three categories are just my cup of tea, so I’ll definitely find something. I hope you’ll like some recommendations or any other stuff I share as well ;-). Last month and this month, there were and will be quite a few comic book collections to write about. Maybe you can give me some advise for future purchases.
That’s great. I always advise people getting into / or back into / comics just to go for characters they are familiar with and like the best first. For me its always been Batman, Spider-Man, Daredevil, Hulk and X-Men. I’d be happy to give you any advice on issue or graphic novels as well.
Sounds great. I grew up with Spider-Man and He-Man, although it’s debatable if that’s an original comic character. But I do have the mini-comics series and loved the animated TV show ;-). I guess I’d usually go for the rather wacky anti-heroes these days. I really liked Hellboy and Deadpool. Aside from superheroes, “Harrow County” and “Fables” were pretty cool.
You can’t really go wrong with Amazing Spider-Man, the current series with the Beyond storyline is really good, and there are tons of graphic novel / collected editions to check out – especially the Epic Collections which which are good to look out for as they focus on particular stories and themes. I’m. a big fan of Hellboy as well, again there are lots of collected editions and currently Hellboy The Bones of Giants which is a great new storyline. 🙂
Sounds cool, although looking at the prices of the Omnibus editions for Spidey, I’m not sure I can easily dig into it. Digital versions might do the trick, but I’m more for a physical product ;-). I only read the Mike Mignola Omnibus and Short Stories, which I liked a lot. I guess we’ll have to exchange some recommendations via Twitter or Facebook so I won’t have to spam your site :-).
That will be great. Yeah, the trade collection can be expensive. I always around on Twitter as well. I tend to review some of the latest comics on my Blog so hopefully I’ll review something you like the sound of as well.
One last recommendation I might write something about (or I did already with their videos): The prog rock band Coheed and Cambria has been doing an epic comic-book style crossover between their music and comic books. I’m trying to get my hands on them while they’re still not too expensive: “The Amory Wars”. A very unique concept and it seems the comics are just as great as the music, although they went a bit too mainstream after their first three albums (which are amazing, BTW).
