“Hockey Girl Loves Drama Boy”

By | Oct 31, 2023 | Reviews

Faith Erin Hicks’s “Hockey Girl Loves Drama Boy” is a romance that’s unashamed of being a romance and a comic that unabashedly indulges in artistic flourishes that are so very comic booky. The very approach to the comic reflects the central themes of the story and I love it. Please excuse the image quality of […]

If you’re not careful, what can be an exciting epic and powerful story can quickly be overwhelmed with a feeling that you aren’t exploring a strange new world but rather doing homework for a world that isn’t your own. But if […]

By | Oct 20, 2023 | Reviews

I will admit, when I first read the first issues of “Hack/Slash” oh so long ago, my initial feelings were not very positive. At first glance, the book looked like it was an excuse to draw some gratuitous violence being committed to and by scantily clad women, and while some people may like that, it […]
