WPR First Look Reviews: D&D 5th Edition Monster Manual
Mmmm, what have your brought to me young adventurer? A fresh D&D Monster Manual? deep sniff Oh yes, I know of this book. Foolish one that you are. I can now feel the looming fear from your adventuring party, is that your collective legs twitching that is causing such a rumble? Fear not, as I […]
Conan the Avenger: Shadows of Kush, Issues #2 – #5, reviewed
Gronk….Gronk When I last talked about this new run, it was the inaugural first issue. Which was tremendously good. Now that I’ve gotten myself all caught up (hey, it happens) I’ve been able to get more of a feel for the story and what Van Lente is up to. Conan the Avenger: Shadows over Kush […]
Tusk reviewed: Be careful what you ask for
Tusk-tusk..!
As much a defense as it is an explanation, writer/director Kevin Smith’s own voice over the credits retells how he and fellow podcaster Jason Mewes concocted Tusk during their successful SModcast. They then invited their listeners to respond with either #walrusyes or #walrusno… which resulted in this film: a parody of the whole “based on […]
Here Be Monsters…and Dead Gods in Ragnarok #1
Walter Simonson’s first creator-owned comic in 20 years published by IDW, Ragnarok, is full of epic art, but leaves a little to be desired when it comes to the writing. RAGNAROK #1 WRITER: Walter Simonson ARTIST: Walter Simonson COLORIST: Laura Martin LETTERER: John Workman PUBLISHER: IDW RELEASE DATE: July 23, 2014 Try Ragnarok #1 for […]
The Maze Runner: Is It Worth Your Babysitting Money?
The Maze Runner (2014 Film) Release date: September 19, 2014 (USA) Director: Wes Ball Staring: Dylan O’Brien, Kaya Scodelario, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Will Poulter It’s easy to see from the trailer for The Maze Runner that we are in the era of YA novels turned blockbusters. I personally blame this bastardization of text on Twilight (only because I liked the Harry […]
Z-Nation “Puppies and Kittens” – Review
Syfy, bless them, they’re trying really hard to become a truly great network. I’ve been a fan of their shows for many many years considering I used to watch when they were Sci-Fi and used to show great cartoons on the weekend (Robotech being the big one for me). Lately, I’ve been lapping up Defiance […]
Book Review: The Geography of You and Me by Jennifer E. Smith
This weekend, I’ll be attending the Decatur Book Festival in Decatur, GA. I’ll be covering the festival for WatchPlayRead, and I have the amazing opportunity to interview a few authors while there. Jennifer E. Smith is one of them, so I thought I’d review one of her books, The Geography of You and Me, for you […]

My couple of weeks with an ASUS MeMO Pad 7
It’s not very often I get a shiny new toy sent to me to review here on WPR. Well, we get plenty of shiny things, but this is probably the more versatile of shiny things we get. Lets talk Price: I’m including this first, because for most families here in the states, price is always […]
Falling Skies is “Drawing Straws”
Massive Spoilers AHOY! Alright, so, Drawing Straws starts off with us learning about the training Lexi is going through with her Esphini monk dude. Much like Lourdes, she blows up a giant oak tree after the monkish fellow tells her she’s just really setting it free. Basically her totally not “Star Wars Force” powers are […]
Comic Review: Bodies #1
I’m still a comic newbie, but even I can tell when a comic is awesome. Si Spencer’s Bodies intertwines four different timelines into an intricate, interesting, and suspenseful tale, and I can’t wait to find out what happens next. BODIES #1 WRITER: Si Spencer ARTIST: Meghan Hetrick, Dean Ormston, Tula Lotay, Phil Winslade COLORIST: Lee […]

Preacher Volume 1: Gone to Texas – I’m a Horrible Person. Or, Desensitized to Violence
Before I start, I’d like to say that I’m pretty new to comics so when I set out to read Preacher (recommended and lent to me from a friend who reads a lot of comics) I didn’t know anything about Garth Ennis, so I can’t comment on how Preacher fits into his career or the […]
Falling Skies is shooting for the moon, literally.
After my first review of this season, I got through episode 2 and because of vacations, conferences and bad timing. Wasn’t able to get caught up with Falling Skies until recently. I’ll say, I sure do feel a lot better about this show than my predictions after the season premiere. Now that we are in […]
Adventure Time Episode Review: Joshua and Margaret Investigations
Well, that’s an interesting turn of events. After what seems like a long string of non-Finn and Jake centrist episodes (I’m not complaining), Joshua and Margaret Investigations starts off with Jake’s birthday celebration. Which then leads Jake into telling the story of when he was born. There hasn’t been a lot of history into the […]
