WHAT IS KOMPLICATED? Komplicated.com [Twitter/Facebook] is a site aimed at taking stock of the Black geek perspective, "doing it for the block and the blogosphere," covering areas of music, technology, culture and escapism. Top stories for the week of September 16-September 23, 2011 include (but are not limited to) ...
- Webcast: It's Komplicated (September 18, 2011)
Last Sunday we had an in-depth analysis of The Black Hero Origin Algorithm (for major publishers) in our Crossfire section, plus looks at John Rozum leaving Static Shock and tech news like the new iOS app from Turntable.fm. Oh, and there was also a lightsaber battle that led to a new host for the show. Yeah, that happened ...
- Blackwatch (September 18, 2011)
Every week, senior media correspondent Vince Moore collects every instance he can find of Black people in media -- movies, comics, books, blogs, et cetera.

Lucky Number Seven Interview: DC Comics' Eric Wallace (September 21, 2011)
The Eureka/Mister Terrific scribe discusses race, comics, the SyFy Network and more in a snappy conversation.
- #whodwin Wednesday (September 21, 2011)
Every week, fans congregate on Komplicated's Facebook page to debate whether, say, Black Cat could beat Catwoman, or whether or not Titania could take down Giganta. The results are collected every Wednesday afternoon and posted on the site, and this week, it was all female combatants (although voting was muted with the whole Troy Davis thing going on)!
- Comics: The Commentary Track for the Buy Pile (September 23, 2011)
Our editor-in-chief Hannibal Tabu has a weekly reviews column at Comic Book Resources. He then takes a look behind the reviews on our site, this week looking at the best and worst of DC's New 52.
- Webcast: It's Komplicated (September 25, 2011 at 9PM)
This week, we look at the furor over hiring women creators and why similar sentiments about Black creators gain a lot less traction.
Did we mention syndicated web comics every weekday? #thenewblack ...

- World of Hurt (twice a week)
- Force Galaxia
- Blackjack
- Freedman
Komplicated updates at least three times per day, every day.
