Frankenstein: New World #2 finally gives our heroes some friendly fauna to interact with. Even better: they're of the sapient variety, in addition to being amphibious in more meanings than one. I swear, this cover art makes the new world looks like a pizza that's been left to grow mold for too
The Lonesome Hunters #4 shows us that birds will be birds. It doesn't matter how powerful their magic is. All they want are shiny stuff, and this issue demonstrates it in the most darkly hilarious way possible. Lupe to the rescue! With a sword she barely knows how to use! Cover artist: Tyler Crook.
Dota: Dragon's Blood Book 3 has a very weird story format. It basically asks itself: "How many literary climaxes can I fit into a single story?". The answer: apparently, all of them. Boy, this series is seriously lacking in key art. Dota: Dragon's Blood Book 3 is the 3rd season (you can read
You would think that Bloodborne: The Lady of the Lanterns #2 would continue the storyline from issue #1. If you did though (like I did), then you would be wrong. Because apparently, this comic book is more of an anthology than it is a serialized comic book with an overarching storyline. I really
The Lonesome Hunters #3 finally has our heroes meet the queen of the creepily cute magpies. She wants her shiny back, and she wants it back now. Only, now she may want more shinies to boot. I know they're supposed to be creepy, but all I see are cute birds playing puppeteer with people. Cover
In Flavor Girls #2, Sara finds out that the road to becoming a good magical girl starts with boot camp. Which is a big problem for someone who has apparently up until that point lived more or less as a couch potato. Rayquaza, is that you? Cover artist: Loïc Locatelli-Kournwsky. Flavor Girls #2 is
Frankenstein: New World #1 finally gives us a look at what the Earth looks like after it ended. It's as beautiful as it is terrifying. Fortunately, our heroes are Frankenstein and a smart-aleck kid. Neither of them appears to be particularly fazed by the wondrous horrors around them. Yet.
There is another world that waits for all of us when we close our eyes and sleep — a place called the Dreaming, where The Sandman, Master of Dreams, gives shape to all of our deepest fears and fantasies. Neil Gaiman’s acclaimed Sandman comics first took readers by storm in the late
We've had haunted house movies. Sure, but have we had a haunted van movie? That's what Passenger amounts to at its most distilled form. This is a horror movie about a demonic force (the opposite of Saint Christopher) that has been chasing and killing travelers for hundreds of years. Basically, the
Though marital arts action cinema is vast and varied, it is rare for one to elevate the genre and push it forward. There have been few recently - The Raid comes to mind, and while not technically "martial arts" I'd argue John Wick counts - that feel as if something new and special is happening.
Daemons of the Shadow Realm jumps right into some bloody action with a new second cours in Ep. 13 "Daikyo and Shokyo". And just two weeks after the conclusion of the first cours to boot. We certainly didn't have long to wait before we see the bloody conclusion to the action-packed ending of Ep. 12.
