“Panther”

By Matthew Garcia | Nov 1, 2016 | Reviews

Nothing in Brecht Evens’s “Panther” is as it seems. Even the structure and format of the book itself reflects the story’s shifting, chameleonic, and ambuscading themes. At first it seems like a story about a young girl trying to understand and deal with her grief, but as the narrative unravels, the whole world becomes far […]

“The World of Edena”

By Matthew Garcia | Oct 28, 2016 | Reviews

Moebius’s works are most famous for their profound influence on comics-dom and the difficulty involved in actually finding any of them. Licenses have been dropped and mixed up, rights management is all over the place, and his chief English publisher, Humanoids, ridiculously prices these books, so they’re practically inaccessible to the people who would most […]

Serenity: No Power in the Verse 1

“Firefly: No Power in the Verse” #1

By Robbie Pleasant | Oct 28, 2016 | Reviews

There is perhaps no fandom more devoted so long after the series’ end as that for Firefly.

Doctor Strange Is Not As Magical As It Seems

By Alice W. Castle | Oct 27, 2016 | Movies, Reviews

For the longest time, Marvel Studios seemed untouchable. They were the star child, the little engine that could. A production company spinning out of its parent publisher to directly translate its comics to films. After close to a decade, now, they have produced films pretty much yearly that have brought some of Marvel’s most iconic […]

By Liam Budd | Oct 27, 2016 | Reviews

Just in time for Halloween, the adaptation of “Wolfcop” is here and he reluctantly wants to save us from road thugs, cannibals and huge, evil mutants.

Batgirl 4 Featured

“Batgirl” #4

By Vince Ostrowski | Oct 27, 2016 | Reviews

As much an extension of Brendan Fletcher, Cameron Stewart and Babs Tarr’s “Batgirl of Burnside” as it is a departure, Hope Larson’s “Batgirl” has juggled a variety of tonal identities in the ‘Rebirth’ era but hasn’t betrayed the young, fun character at its core. Does issue #4 continue this trend, or like Babs’ new acquaintences […]

“Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency: The Salmon of Doubt” #1

By Robbie Pleasant | Oct 20, 2016 | Reviews

Douglas Adams is, bar none, my favorite author, so it’s good to see the characters and worlds he’s created live on after his passing. Whether it’s through his unpublished works, adaptations of the Doctor Who episodes he penned, or through new adaptations of old works, his unique and brilliant sense of humor lives on. And […]
