           He aquí algunas razones para ver la tercera entrega de la serie de historias escritas por el genial C.S. Lewis 1.       Aunque pensada para ser un enlace entre las dos primeras partes y el final que aún está por filmarse Las Crónicas de Narnia: La Travesía del Viajero del Alba es de hecho más entretenida porque agrega un elemento que antes no había usado que en jerga hollywoodense es llamado Comic Relief en la persona de un nuevo personaje         llamado Eustace, primo de los hermanos Penvensie, quien a su vez se ve envuelto en esta aventura involuntariamente. Eustace es el típico niño odioso a quien todos queremos ver en situaciones hilarantes aunque al final cambia su actitud. Además, la historia incluye solo a los dos hermanos más jóvenes de los Penvensie pero los mayores aparecen aunque de una manera breve a manera de recuerdos o ensoñaciones de Lucy, la menor. También están el príncipe Caspian,  el ratón espadachín Reepicheep y por supuesto Aslan (incluso la omnipresen

One writer that keeps fascinating me with his mindboggling ideas is Grant Morrison whose main work can be found in the comic world. He has written stories for the X-men, the Justice League and more recently Batman though some of his best work can be found in titles that are not precisely considered "mainstream". I have read several of his works and the one that keeps coming to my mind is a Batman graphic novel that was illustrated by groundbreaking artist, Dave Mc Kean, (that itself guarantees that reading this novel is a visual experience). The story is not only about Batman, but the past of the house that came to be Arkham Asylum  and its original inhabitant and founder of the asylum, Dr. Arkham. Morrison tells the story in two different times, past and present, with events that are closely connected. In the past story, Dr. Arkham is a benevolent and devoted psychiatrist who goes insane after one of his patients brutally (emphasis in brutally) rapes and murders the doctor

One of those masters of horror that has not received all the recognition he should is W.W. Jacobs. Born in 1863 this Londoner was not really known for being a horror writer, however, it was a collection of short stories ( The lady of the Barge, 1902) that made him popular and one in particular has endured the test of time better than the rest: The Monkey’s Paw . This is the tale that defines psychological horror more accurately than any other. It’s really easy to scare showing scenes of gore, using ominous dark figures or monsters of all sorts, but is it equally easy without any of those things? Jacobs was a master in doing so and his story is the best proof.  It begins with the Whites and their only son, a young man.One day they receive the visit of one of Mr. White’s old friends, a military man who is in possession of a mysterious artifact. That thing is a monkey’s paw that has the incredible ability to grant three wishes to its owner. It can be used by three different people

A baby born in another planet is sent to Earth to save his life from the destruction of his  homeworld. Sounds familiar?   Well this one is not Superman but a new character from the creators of Monsters vs Aliens. His name is Megamind and unlike the Kryptonian, this one grows, by circumstances mostly, to become a supervillain and as all good supervillains he has a superhero that thwarts his every plan called Metro Man. The whole point of Megamind’s life is to destroy Metro Man so when accidentally he “destroys” his nemesis, Megamind gets so bored he creates a new superhero called Tighten (pronounced Titan). What Megamind cannot foresee is that his creation decides to become a bitter supervillain so in order to save Metro City Megamind is forced to show his heroic side and defeat Tighten himself. This is not a superhero movie, it’s an animated movie for all ages which behind the story shows interesting things such as how people just because you’re unattractive (Megamind is a big-headed
