Review: Captain Midnight #16

There is no doubt that Joshua Williams, Fernando Dagnino, and sometimes Manuel Garcia’s Captain Midnight has been one of my favorite reads out of the Dark Horse comic stables. It has been ushered as the flagship title of Project Black Sky and arguably it has been the best of each Black Sky title with only a couple coming close.

Review: Rasputin #1

Rasputin, the so-called “mad monk” of Russia who gained influence in the days of the last Tsar, has fascinated many history-buffs for decades.

It doesn’t really go according to plan, culminating in a big, dramatic shoot-out. Our boys are fine, obviously, but they’re attacked from both sides, and Ollie even uses a gun.

Review: Alive

The highest compliment that I can give Alive is that it’s the manga Stray Bullets. That is the only comparison I can make to it and while the story telling is completely different, the subject matter has little in common, they are similar in one important way… they capture slices of real life.
