Dr. Who #8 – Mini Review
I want to get something out of the way right now, I don’t like Dr. Who. Never have, likely never will. I love British comedies and distinctly remember the first time I gave the Dr. Who television show a shot. Wow it was horrible, every time thereafter that I tried to watch I just couldn’t […]
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Are Back – Mini Review
The heroes in a half shell are back in a relaunch that kicks off with the origin of Splinter and the boys. As a concept TMNT has always been one of the goofiest ideas around. Ninja turtles? It just sounds silly. I grew up with the cartoon, the horrendous live action movie, the video game and I […]
Circumstance – Review
Circumstance tells the story of Atafeh (Nikohl Boosheri) and Shireen (Sarah Kazemy), two 16-year-old Iranian lesbian girls of two very different upbringings. These two classmates appear by day as the very model of Middle Eastern modesty, but at night they explore the underground world of Iran: a world filled with music, dancing, movies, and sexual […]
The Princess and Mr. Whiffle – A Children’s Book Not For Children
By all appearances The Adventures of the Princess and Mr. Whiffle: The Thing Beneath the Bed is a sweet childhood tale of a princess and her teddy bear but this is no book for children. I checked it out at the library a few weeks ago knowing nothing about it but that it was written by […]
Transformers #23 Review – There really is more than meets the eye
So Transformers are just those robots that turn into cars and motorcycles and jets or if you’re old like me they turned into cassette players, you know, audio cassettes, silver boom boxes, high speed dubbing…never mind, its robots that change into things, right?
Hellboy: The Fury #3 Review – Wow
So I just finished reading through all three issues of Dark Horse’s Hellboy: The Fury and it was impressive. The story feels very simple and straightforward, basically you have Hellboy fighting Nimue, an ancient sorceress, to save humanity (okay, maybe that doesn’t sound real simple but it feels like it). One of the great things […]
That Hellbound Train #3 Mini-Review
First off, there must have been a whole lot of stuff happening in the first two issues of this series because this one totally threw me for a loop.
Go Joe! The Action Continues in GI Joe #4 – Review
Issue 4 of Cobra Civil War: GI Joe really picks up the pace of the series.
30 Days of Night, Night Again #4 Mini Review
Okay, it’s a comic about vampires that come out in the dark.
Interview with Cole Haddon, Writer of The Strange Case of Mr. Hyde
The Strange Case of Mr. Hyde was a great mini series focused on, you guessed it, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Click here for the review, don’t worry I’ll wait… Great, now that you’re up to speed let’s keep going.
Wynonna Earp: The Yeti Wars #4 Review
I don’t know what to say, just the title of this comic makes me smile.
Cowboys & Aliens – Mini Review
If you like Cowboys, and if you like Aliens, then look no further. This movie will meet all your western-sci-fi action needs…assuming that you take it at face value.
The Strange Case of Mr. Hyde – Review
I recently had the opportunity to review all four issues of Cole Haddon’s The Strange Case of Mr. Hyde published by Dark Horse. I’ll be honest, this is not the type of comic I would normally pick up at a comic shop. I went into it curious about how I would like something different from […]
A “former” GI Joe addict reviews Cobra Civil War: Cobra #3
If I were to name three things that defined my childhood it would be video games, baseball cards and GI Joe. I played my first video games on an Apple IIe and and Intellivision console, still have boxes and boxes of baseball cards sitting in my parent’s attic and right now, today, I have a […]
