By Alice W. Castle | Sep 5, 2013 | Reviews

You know, with a title like “God Is Dead”, you inevitably have a certain level of expectation for how badass this comic should be.

Pick of the Week: Hit #1

By Michelle White | Sep 5, 2013 | Reviews

One of the words I’m liable to overuse when I write reviews is “noirish” – and no, it isn’t really even a word at that. But when there’s a quality out there you really like, you look for it everywhere, and when Boom! Studios comes up with a miniseries that’s so noirish it hurts, you […]

Review: Lazarus #3

By Michelle White | Aug 30, 2013 | Reviews

The first and second issues of “Lazarus” blew us away, crafting an enthralling post-apocalyptic world and populating it with a diverse cast of characters and more than its fair share of moral and political dilemmas.
