“I Could Trojan Horse My Way Into Meeting Stan if I Could Film Something with Him…”- On Documentaries and The REAL Last Days of Stan Lee

You couldn’t blame someone for thinking that Four Color Sinners is following the zeitgeist right now and touching on a story that’s captured the attention of seemingly all of the comic book community’s attention-starved minds- after all, we were MIA for half a year before worming our way back into your hearts this month, and […]

Sunday Mailbag: Or, I Never Thought I’d Get SO MANY eMails About Jon Bolerjack’s Stupid Ass

It’s true: when the last entry of 2024 was posted, Four Color Sinners was firing on all cylinders and had tremendous traction. And no one was more surprised than yours truly, still the most gregarious and, yes, humble of writers. In that time, we’ve received so many emails that I was initially overwhelmed to sift […]

Looking Back in Exasperation: Revisiting The Lion in Winter, 10 Years On…

Don’t let my long-awaited return fool you, dear friends. I have not been prompted or motivated to write due to topical events at all, believe it or don’t- on the contrary, I’ve been planning a return to regular posts for the past two weeks, largely motivated by the steady influx of e-mails I’ve received covering […]

“One of The Hard Lessons The Comics Industry Has Taught Me is That EVERYONE LIES SOMETIME…”- on Tony Isabella and The Continued Irrational Defense of “Not In The Room”

It seems I have to, unexpectedly, touch upon the words and thought process of outspoken comics veteran Tony Isabella– a figure covered here once before as I examined his selective approach to injustice and how he rationalized which conservative(s) to direct his ire towards. I was slightly reluctant then as I am now to offer […]

“The Rest is Houseroy Being Houseroy, Kirby Tried to Warn All of Us”- On The Self-Destruction of Roy Thomas’s Legacy

Don’t worry, friends- Old Reliable has finally returned. Which in itself is quite a story- one much more interesting than the very topical issue we’re about to cover below- but, due to the pressing need to cut off utterly worthless excuses for sites like Bleeding Cool (ugh) from continuing to mine Four Color Sinners for […]

“On My Recommendation, I Talked to Stan…” – Continued Dispatches From The Roy Thomas Dishonesty Tour

So much. So much has happened on the ongoing Roy Thomas Lies campaign that I barely know where to begin, o frantic ones. It’s hardly been three months since awareness of the Rascally One’s villainy increased, due to longtime Marvel editor Bobbie Chase post regarding Thomas’s retroactively granted credit as the co-creator of Wolverine. So […]

Conservative Snowflakes & Liberal Know-It-Alls Both Get It Wrong: The REAL Reason For The “Controversial” Silver Surfer Casting

This’ll be a short one friends, as I’ve got all sorts of irons in the proverbial fire with the ongoing (and growing) pushback towards Roy Thomas and John Cimino’s villainy, as well as work on an article which proves conclusively just how fraudulent and inept the collected “comics journalism” community is. In fact, this is […]

“I Hope His Widow Gets Rich Off It”- More On Roy the Ghoul and The Power of Recorded Statements

So much to go over and the developments are hardly over. This entry might seem a little haphazard as there’s a few things to cover, but it’s all part of an overall pattern that Four Color Sinners has been documenting for the better part of a year; not because it was the hot topic in […]

“…Suddenly No Longer Worth Their Own Category…”- On The Eisner Awards Removing The Journalism Category (Sobs)

You cannot imagine my sense of tangible relief when my overwhelming self-awareness kicked into overdrive and reminded me that I am not, you know, a comics journalist. For this month especially has been a notable one for the collected members of that specific community, as the long-running Eisner Awards recently announced they were removing the […]
