TMC Vol 7 - August Edition


The dog days of summer have ended and with it the month of August and that means it's time for another edition of TMC - The Monthly Crisis, our fake magazine mock-ups for an end of month round-up of all the posts we've made this month.

August was a noteworthy month as it saw our Two Year Anniversary, which I've tried to capture in this mishmash of panels and images from a favourite issue of Incredible Hercules, which I even use for our current banner. You can view a larger image of the cover if the text is too difficult to see by clicking here.

Some highlights from the month, aside from the anniversary and associated giveaways, included the recent Disney acquisition of Marvel, a fantastic Daredevil guest post by Christine Hanefalk, of the Other Murdock Papers, my obsession with Batman: Arkham Asylum, Matt's picks for a Marvel Comics version of Wednesday Comics and so much more. Hit the jump for all the posts in a handy table of contents-styled listing and make sure you didn't miss any of our great content!


For those unaware, TMC is a fake comic magazine I put together earlier this year as a free download that featured my year end rewards, reviews and even some Final Crisis annotations.

While the act of creating a magazine was too much to do a monthly basis, the fake magazine proved so popular that I just couldn't leave it alone and, thus, these month end posts were born and have become a staple of the blog and act as a pseudo archives of sort. If you missed any news, reviews, moments of the week or any of the numerous opinion or editorials posted here at the Weekly Crisis, these posts provide a detailed account of everything we've done for the month in a convenient and easy to navigate post.

Uh oh, Kirk, you confused "you're" with "your" in the speech bubble in the cover.
