Buy This Book and You Can Draw Monstrously Funny Cartoons Too
I tried my hand at some vampire cartoons courtesy of the instructions from Christopher Hart and his new book Monstrously Funny Cartoons. While I doubt I have a career in art, I had fun reading through the witty text and following Hart’s sketch tips. Monstrously Funny Cartoons Author: Christopher Hart Publisher: Watson-Guptil Release date: October […]

Daniel Radcliffe is enthralling in Horns
Horns is a magnificently dark story filled with performances that kept me transfixed. As the film progressed, the tone of the film grew more sinister to the point where Daniel Radcliffe was simply chilling. This is the first film director Alexandre Aja did not write himself, and might be his best feature film to date. […]

Flatline was anything but flat
Flatline was interesting, one of the marginalized or Doctorless episodes. Throughout most of the episode, The Doctor is trapped in the TARDIS, leaving Clara to do all the legwork. The plot imposed enough restrictions on what The Doctor could do that the outcome was genuinely in question at one point. The story itself is one […]
Gotham Season 1, Episode 5 “Viper” – Something Smells Fishy
A deadly drug takes over Gotham, Bruce’s obsession takes over his life, and Gordon is taken by Maroni. Find out what else happened in Gotham’s fourth episode, “Viper”. This week, a disgruntled chemist begins giving away a new drug called “Viper” that gives the people who take it superhuman strength and then kills them. Gordon […]
Adventure Time – Title cards book is MATHEMATICAL
Ah, the first thing you see at the start of every episode is a beautifully done Title Card that it typically has nothing to really do with the episode. When I last talked to Adventure Time background artist Derek Hunter, he said that typically the storyboard artist gets dibs on the Titlecard. These are pretty […]
Is someone getting the best, the best, the best, “The Best of Me”? Nah.
Almost every year, like clockwork, someone releases melodramatic romance based on a Nicholas Sparks novel, usually involving photogenic white people who just stepped out of an Abercrombie & Fitch photo shoot coming back home to an overwhelmingly white part of the rural south, falling in love all over again, and a girl with tears streaming […]
Comic Review: Bodies #3 – Shahara Explodes and So Does a Car
After two really interesting and intriguing issues, Si Spencer’s Bodies, published by Vertigo, is beginning to come together. Sort of. The four timelines are starting to connect in ways that I was definitely not expecting. BODIES #3 WRITER: Si Spencer ARTIST: Meghan Hetrick, Dean Ormston, Tula Lotay, Phil Winslade COLORIST: Lee Loughridge LETTERER: Dezi Sienty […]

The Best of Me is a tedious romance trope
I am in no way shape or form the demographic for which this film is intended, so take what I say here with that weight. The core audience for this film will love it, and some may even love it while seeing it for what it is. The Best of Me is low romance fantasy. […]
Gotham Season 1, Episode 4 “Arkham” – Poisoned Cannolis
The crime bosses want control of Arkham, but neither Cobblepot nor Gordon want to give it to them. The focus of Gotham’s fourth episode, which aired on Fox, this week was who’ll gain control of Arkham Asylum. As we know from last week’s episode, Oswald Cobblepot is already back in Gotham. He showed up at […]
Mummy on the Orient Express is having such a good time
Mummy on the Orient Express might as well have been written for Tom Baker’s Doctor, and performed by Colin Baker. It is best modern example, since the last one, of the classic glory days of the series, which have arguably come again. The argument for the new golden age of Doctor Who is actually quite […]
Comic Review: Thor #1 – Thor is a woman! Or is (s)he?
