“Squadron Supreme” #4

By | Jun 30, 2022 | Reviews

Four issues into “Squadron Supreme,” and the series hasn’t shied away from difficult subject matter. The series opened with superheroes building a utopia. And the most recent issue tackled the topic of complete disarmament, and all the controversies that would be sure to follow. Somewhere in there was not-Batman chickening out on an assassination attempt […]

“A-Next” #3

By | Jun 25, 2022 | Reviews

The late nineties of superhero comics have always been such a fascinating wild west to me. I know so little about this period that is building off the industry’s most significant recession. With so few eyes drawn to it, it’s ripe for uncovering fascinating hidden gems or unreadable stinkers. This year I’ve dug up the […]

“Immortal X-Men” #3

By | Jun 24, 2022 | Reviews

It seems like in the lives of many a high school or college student, a crucial moment is a realization that “Utopia” means “no place.” It’s a revelation that appeals to the cynicism of that age, the idea that a perfect world is high fantasy and not an attainable reality. This often translates to putting […]

“Squadron Supreme” #3

By | Jun 23, 2022 | Reviews

The last issue of “Squadron Supreme” ended on a bit of a rougher note, let’s say. In a plot thread that eerily foreshadowed a certain other twelve issue deconstructive miniseries, atomic power superhero Nuke disappeared after seemingly irradiatiating his parents, and almost selling Hyperion out to Kang-the-Conqueror-but-red. We also saw Tom Thumb get made fun […]

“The Lonesome Hunters” #1

By | Jun 23, 2022 | Reviews

“The Lonesome Hunters” #1 from creator Tyler Crook is his first major comics work as both writer and artist, but it is such a natural progression. Crook has always had an eye for storytelling through art, and the years of experience shows in every page. This review contains spoilers, but I’ve mostly avoided discussing the […]

This year, I discovered a passion for soccer, and with that comes a passion for figuring out your favorite clubs in the various leagues (MLS, Premier League, UEFA Europa League).  While I’ve got the MLS one figured out (Charlotte FC – – and holla to the best supporters group around, the Mint City Collective!)
