Webcomic Spotlight: Captain Excelsior

kidliberty.jpg

This weeks webcomic was recommended to us by reader Scott. Captain Excelsior is about a fantastically dysfunctional superhero named, of course, Captain Excelsior. He's divorced with three kids, but only notices the two with powers.

The art style is very unique, it reminds me of Spümcø stuff in some ways, and it's very distinct. (Man that body hair freaks me out, but I think it's supposed to) The writing is quite well done and the jokes are clever and well-paced. Not to mention, they are currently doing a story about the Captain's son, Kid Liberty, dealing with a gay encounter and deciding if he liked it.

Captain Excelsior updates on Wednesdays and is created by Zach Weiner and Chris Jones.

Comic of the Week

Hey Look Who Showed Up! It's Northstar! Finally! I'm now convinced that I have the mutant power to start talking about something right before it happens, as I was talking about Northstar just last week. I'll call it my 'Foot in Mouth' powers. Anyway, for those who haven't grabbed books this week, I highly recommend you pick up Uncanny X-men #508, as it brings Northstar back to the team. We discover he's been living it up as a famous snowboarder in Canada, with a boyfriend apparently. Wolverine recruits him and his sister for the team. There is some fantastic dialogue that I won't spoil at this point since it just came out, but it's very well written, so thanks should go out to Mr. Matt Fraction. Based on what happens I have a sneaking suspicion that it was written to clear up some of the angst surrounding Northstar's treatment in the last few years. So now we've seen Northstar with a love interest, can a kiss be far behind? Will it make it in time for Pride month? We'll see. Go read it!...
