Review: Wonder Woman #8

By Matthew Meylikhov | Apr 20, 2012 | Reviews

The last issue Wonder Woman’s adventures caused a wee bit of controversy amongst the fan community when a controversial change was made to her past. DC thought that changing her birth would stir the pot, but clearly they haven’t been listening to anyone but their own PR department. Despite a rough moment, however, this comic has […]

Review: Dungeons & Dragons Annual 2012

By Walt Richardson | Apr 19, 2012 | Reviews

Mignolaversity: B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth: The Long Death #3 [Review]

By David Harper and Brian Salvatore | Apr 18, 2012 | Reviews

Review: Secret #1

By Brian Salvatore | Apr 12, 2012 | Reviews

There are a few kinds of movies I’m an absolute sucker for – stories about garage bands making it big, any film set at a newspaper/television news program and, most especially, heist/espionage movies. From the intense planning to the inevitable adaptation under pressure to the gadgetry, every frame of these films thrills me. So, an […]
