DetailsThe Crow was the creation of writer/artist James O’Barr and the prelude to the initial Crow story is found here in Caliber Presents # 1. It’s a moody and violent story looking at pain, revenge, love, death and retribution!
DetailsA year or so back I was having a chat with my boss about the great sci-fi movies from the 1950’s. All the classics came up during the conversation along with one that I had never heard of. That movie was I Married a Monster from Outer Space.
