The Flash

By Michael Mazzacane | Jun 19, 2023 | Movies, Reviews

Note: When discussing the character of Barry Allen, I will use he/him pronouns. When considering the performance of Ezra Miller, I will use they/them. Just to get this out of the way at the top, this isn’t really the space for me to critique the promotional and commercial system that justifies the sale of Ezra […]

“Spirit World” #2

By Brian Salvatore | Jun 16, 2023 | Reviews

DC’s ‘We are Legends’ initiative is, for now, a series of unconnected miniseries that all follow different Asian characters. “Spirit World” is both the most original idea of the batch, and also one with a strong DC Universe connection, as both Cassandra Cain and John Constantine are key parts of the issue. But mini-lines like […]

“Haunt You to the End” #1

By Matthew Blair | Jun 15, 2023 | Reviews

There’s a Stanley Kubrick quote at the beginning of this comic that goes like this: “I think ghost stories are fundamentally optimistic, don’t you? If there are ghosts, then it means we survive death.” Apparently this quote was said by Kubrick to Stephen King (of course) while on the set of The Shining (of course) […]

This March, Dark Horse Comics released a new title in Jeff Lemire and Dean Ormston’s World of Black Hammer, “Colonel Weird and Little Andromeda,” written by Tate Brombal, and with art from Ray Fawkes and a whole host of other artists.

Mignolaversity: “Miss Truesdale and the Fall of Hyperborea” #2

By James Dowling and Mark Tweedale | Jun 14, 2023 | Reviews

In the first issue of “Miss Truesdale and the Fall of Hyperborea” we saw how seamlessly writer Mike Mignola and artist Jesse Lonergan work together. In this second issue, we see the more dramatic side of that collaboration emerge, with Mignola indulging in the grand mythology he so loves in his stories, and Lonergan taking […]

“Why Are You Like This?”

By Robbie Pleasant | Jun 13, 2023 | Reviews

Every now and then, a webcomic does so well that the creator can publish their strips in a curated collection. When that happens, comic reviewers have the privilege and challenge of reviewing them and seeing how well the comic works as a collection, as individual strips, and as any form of overarching narrative. This time, […]

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts

By Christopher Egan | Jun 9, 2023 | Movies, Reviews

Picking up seven years after Bumblebee, this second prequel in the Transformers series is looking to stand on its own while also bridging what is an effective standalone movie and the rest of the series to the Michael Bay era, and it is mostly successful in that endeavor. Some mild spoilers ahead. Transformers: Rise of […]

“Deadpool: Badder Blood” #1

By Robbie Pleasant | Jun 9, 2023 | Reviews

The 90’s, for better or worse, have a reputation among comic readers, including certain styles and artists whose works are synonymous with the times. Perhaps chief among them is Rob Liefeld, a writer and artist who gave us some of the biggest guns, most bulging muscles, and also notably, inaccurate feet. But the 90’s comics […]

“Loki” #1

By Joe Skonce | Jun 8, 2023 | Reviews

When you set aside the chaotic evil and embrace the mischief, Loki is certainly one of the more fun characters to follow. He’s a character that has helmed plenty of solo series’ exploring the ability to change and fight your destiny, sometimes working for redemption from his family, sometimes as the ends of his means.

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse

By James Dowling | Jun 5, 2023 | Movies, Reviews

Across the Spider-Verse is, almost obviously, excellent. It’s a film that genuinely challenges itself visually, consistently working to surprise every demographic placed in front of it. This is the kind of story that is vital to the generative lifeblood of animation, even when it concedes to tropes or stacks its plate too high. You can […]

“Amazing Spider-Man” #26

If you miss comics that confidently refuse to tell you what they’re about, the wait is over. “W0rldtr33” is a new series from James Tynion IV and Fernando Blanco, published by Image through Tynion’s Tiny Onion imprint. It’s scary and weird. There is a ghostly naked woman doing unspeakable crimes. It doesn’t make a single […]

“Catfight” #1

By Matthew Blair | Jun 2, 2023 | Reviews

The thief with a code of honor is one of the most popular character archetypes in the history of modern storytelling. Characters like Robin Hood have been entertaining people for centuries, while more modern characters like Catwoman and Black Cat offer quite a bit of moral complexity and anti-hero potential while injecting the opportunity for […]
