This book is the definition of hard to read, but not due to quality. I didn't mind this book. Once I got rolling with what it was about, it was a pleasant enough if not memorable timewaster. But I'll be damned if this book doesn't have some severe visual problems.
Read MoreReview: X-Files – Year One #4
The penultimate issue of X-Files: Year One’s first arc throws out some new surprises and quasi-answers some questions, but after a promising third issue, this fourth issue lets a lot of the air out of the story once again.
Read MoreHalo: Nightfall Trailer
This could be cool...
Read MoreReview: Nightbreed #6
Last month got pretty crazy for Nightbreed. We heard of two stories from two completely different monsters. Somehow they mirrored each other with underlying messages though. We heard of Annastasjia sneaking perfection and acceptance from her fans and colleagues.
Read MoreReview: Godzilla: Rulers of Earth #17
Lucy’s team recovers after the fight in the Russian tundra. Although the Cryog leader fled with two MechaGodzilla units, the Spetsnaz assisted human team captures the twin psychic women who aided the aliens.
Read MoreVideo Game High School: S3:E2 - Nobody Cool Goes to Prom
In the previous two seasons of their high-school comedy series, 'VGHS' has never done a prom episode. So how do they tackle it in their third and final season? By having none of their characters go to prom.
Read MoreReview: Southern Dog #2
The first issue of Southern Dog was pretty intense. It’s also a strange story as it’s dealing with racism and werewolves, but more so with racism. While the first issue kind of dealt with the illusion of white racism, the second issue dives in deep with the KKK and hate crimes.
Read MoreReview: Samurai Jack #13
I am a sucker for cute things. So I am just going to jump to the main reason this comic rocks; Samurai Jack as a youngster equals adorable. Now there are many reasons to jump onto this series, but if you are a sucker for cute things then here is your chance to enjoy Jack as a young samurai hearing of his father’s tales.
Read MoreReview: Memetic #1
How many hours have you lost to internet click-holes? Did I write hours? Because we both know I mean days. You’re presumably on the internet right now, so in the last few minutes alone, you’ve probably ingested a potentially hazardous amount of digital squee.
Read MoreReview: The Wicked + The Divine #5
The Wicked + The Divine was the series that sold me on the pitch and then tried pretty hard to lose me on the second issue. The third issue was decent enough, but this fourth issue sticks the landing. What I’m not sure of is this: did it stick the landing because it was slowly building to it, or in spite of getting lost a little bit on the way there.
Read MoreReview: Deadhorse – The Ballad of the Two Headed Dog #2
This issue is really mellow compared to the previous issue in the volume. It wasn’t quite what I expected and I’m not 100% sure what it’s building towards, which is a shame since there’s a few reveals in this issue.
Read MoreReview: Colder – The Bad Seed #1
I thoroughly enjoyed the first volume of Colder so that fact that it’s returned as a limited ongoing is a cause of excitement for me. That said I did wonder what the lay of the land would be like diving into this second volume.
Read MoreReview: Oddly Normal #2
Otis Frampton’s Oddly Normal has been a delightful fairy tale excursion from the industry-wide grim ‘n gritty that has taken hold. In this world of wacky witchy aunts and accidental spells of banishment and transdimensional sieves, people of all ages will find the things that they loved about The Wizard of Oz and A Wrinkle in Time and dare I say even some Tim Burton-esque creepies, lovingly addressed in a very original story.
Read MoreReview: Predator: Fire and Stone #1
Higgins, Piper, and Galgo made their escape after the events of Prometheus: Fire and Stone. Taking one of the Engineer’s weapons as booty, the three realize that a Predator stowed aboard their ship. The hunt is on as the three men look to rid their vessel of the excess baggage.
Read MoreReview: Goners #1
Goners tells the story of a world where ghosts, monsters, and myths are real, and people hunt them professionally- for the sake of reality television.
Read MoreReview: Hero Cats of Stellar City #2
Mario Bros. themes never get old to me. Probably because like most people you grew up with that song in your head and let your fingers bleed until you beat Bowser. So to see Hero Cats have a Mario themed cover was pretty damn cool. This comic couldn’t wait to be read.
Read MoreReview: Godzilla: Cataclysm #3
I was pleasantly inspired by last issue’s philosophic twist involving humanity’s worship of the kaiju as deities. I hoped and that issue three advanced this idea. It did that and more.
Read MoreReview: Edward Scissorhands #1
Edward Scissorhands picks up several decades after the film. Megs wants to learn more about the man she’d heard so much about from her now deceased grandmother. But her mother is making things complicated, insisting that Grandma Kim was crazy and Edward was a murderer, and forbidding Megs from pursuing this further. Naturally, Megs is more determined than ever to find out the truth behind the stories.
Read MoreReview: Stray Bullets: Killers #8
This is the second week in a row where I unknowingly picked up the last in a series arc. I’ve been wanting to catch up on Stray Bullets for a while now for no other reason than because of all the critical acclaim it’s been receiving, and my love of bandwagoning.
Read MoreReview: The Delinquents #3
The Delinquents #3 continues the delightful misadventure undertaken by our unfortunate foursome as they remain hot on the trail of the hobo community’s greatest legend: The Big Rock Candy Mountain; mostly to keep it out of the hands of Mondostano, a seemingly environmentally-altruistic conglomerate secretly seeking out new and better ways to genetically fuck with, and rule over, the world’s food supply.
