“Dark Ride” #1

By | Oct 6, 2022 | Reviews

I am delighted to report that “Dark Ride” is good. It’s really good. In the span of the first issue, we are breathlessly taken across the breadth of the story. Set up like a good TV pilot, “Dark Ride” #1 introduces a wide ensemble of characters and teases their hidden depths. But it’s not a […]

“Bloodshot Unleashed” #1

By | Sep 23, 2022 | Reviews

It seems that every stable of superheroes has some sort of augmented human soldier in their collection. It certainly makes sense, any fight between good and evil with the fate of the world at stake is bound to attract government attention and unless a country’s military is already made up of superhumans, said soldiers are […]
