What more can really be said of the comic book-making clinic that John Allison and Max Sarin put on with “Giant Days” month after month?

“Starship Down” #1

By | Mar 19, 2020 | Reviews

One of the best moments in an “Urban Fantasy” or Sci-Fi series is the moment when the protagonist has their life changed forever as they discover that the world is not as normal as it seems. The moment is usually designed to make them feel small, that the rules they’ve always known have changed. It’s […]

“Artemis And The Assassin” #1

By | Mar 19, 2020 | Reviews

Time travel is one of those wild sci-fi comics that seems to be so inseparable from the comics medium. It’s been done to death in mainstream books like “X-Men” and explored in interesting ways in things like “Planetary”, but has such a malleable allure to it that people keep being intrigued. “Artemis And The Assassin” […]

“Aggretsuko” #2

By | Mar 13, 2020 | Reviews

Aggretsuko the anime is an incredibly relatable series from Sanrio, encapsulating the frustrations of working life with a combination of cute animal characters and death metal music.

“Judge Dredd: 100 Page Giant” #1

By | Mar 13, 2020 | Reviews

I like Judge Dredd. More specifically, I like the world that has been built around the character and the opportunities for different types of stories set in the dystopian urban hellscape that is Mega City One. You can have over the top satire mixed with heart wrenching emotional tragedy, sweeping epics paired with snapshots of […]

Star Wars is a story of hope. It’s a classic tale, really, people banding together to free their galaxy from darkness and tyranny. Yet, despite its optimistic nature, it is a franchise that has its fair share of grit and grime. There is a memorable and well-established underworld throughout the galaxy, which gives us some […]
