Welcome to The Weekly Crisis - a Weekly Comic Book Review Blog that helps comic book fans solve their weekly comic book crisis regarding which books to purchase.
My name is Kirk Warren and I'm a long time comic book enthusiast just trying to have some fun and share my passion for the hobby with my fellow fans through this blog.
From Hobby to Blogger
Like many comic book readers, I have noticed the continual decline in local comic book shops and limited options for real life discussions about the hobby we all love. As such, I have been forced to turn my attentions to the internet where I can share my opinions and views with a much larger audience of similar minded individuals.
However, despite being an internet user since the early 90's, I have noticed the number of dedicated comic book review sites are few and far between. Yes, there's the mainstay news sites, such as Newsarama or Comic Book Resources, but they do not specialize or feature very many reviews.
As such, I took it upon myself, a rather avid reader and collector of a variety of books, to create my own blog dedicated primarily to weekly reviews, featured every Wednesday as soon as I get my comics. As the months went on, I have added news, previews, moments of the week, character profiles and other assorted columns and posts to the site - all features I have found lacking on the major sites related to comic books around the web.
Why The Weekly Crisis?
I chose the name The Weekly Crisis because Major Spoilers and The Buy Pile were taken. Ahaha. Seriously though, I wanted a comic book sounding name and one that was not taken. There were a rather large number of "_____'s Pull List" and "____'s Longbox" and other such derivatives. I wanted something to uniquely reflect the fact I would be doing this every Wednesday, week-in and week-out, as well as something that was related to comic books. DC had just finished Identity Crisis and Infinite Crisis and I knew they had Final Crisis planned as well as the original crisis, Crisis on Infinite Earths. It seemed like these Crisis's were popping up every other week these days and thus, The Weekly Crisis was born. I added the sub-heading, Weekly Comic Book Reviews as a means of describing exactly what The Weekly Crisis means for new viewers and random traffic that stumbled onto the site.
