Review: Mitch Hammer #1
By Oliver Gerlach
Mitch Hammer #1 is described by its writer as “silly fun with a splash of Nextwave, flaunting its girth in the manner of Shirtless Bear Fighter.” That’s not an entirely inaccurate description. Contained within this issue is a great deal of silly fun, clearly influenced by titles such as the two mentioned. Obviously it’s not Nextwave, because Nextwave is unique and special, but it shares a similar sense of fun and a similar use of wild balls-to-the-wall action for pure entertainment value. It’s the story of a construction worker fighting mad science at a local community college, and is exactly as serious as you might expect: not remotely.
Review: Ringside #11
By Daniel Vlasaty
I just want to be completely honest here and say I don’t like wrestling. I’ve never liked it, not even in the 90s when literally everyone liked it. I never saw the appeal of it. It just seemed so ridiculously dramatic and very clearly fake. But everyone knew it was fake and pretended it wasn’t. Or they didn’t care. I have no fucking idea. It just wasn’t my thing, I guess. And I think this is the reason why I never read a single issue of Ringside before last night. This is a review of issue #11 but I didn’t want to go in completely blind so before reading this new issue, I also read the first 10 issues.
Review: Generation Gone #2
By Jonathan Edwards
At first I didn't want to review this one. However, it probably wasn't for the reason you'd initially think. I liked the first issue of Generation Gone well enough that I kind of wanted to keep my reading of the book casual. That way, I could take my time with each issue and not have to immediately jump into the critical thinking. Of course, that would've also likely meant I'd quickly fall behind in my reading of it (I'm already behind on a number of books I'm already reading casually). And since there really wasn't all that much else coming out this week that I felt the desire to review, I decided I might as well just go ahead and do Generation Gone #2. And, you know what? I'm glad I did. Because, now I'm interested in talking about this one.
Review: Sink #3
By Dustin Cabeal
Fear not, there’s a review for the second issue of Sink coming, but as the creator and writer John Lees informed me, each issue of Sink is standalone. It’s all tied together in the same world, but they’re standalone stories depicting different dark aspects of this one hellish town. I will say this, don’t get in the van. The comic will tell you to get in the van but don’t you fucking dare. No one wants to get into that thing.
Review: Corrsolla Robot #3
By Dustin Cabeal
I’m a shit for this review. I have been sitting on this issue for so long that it’s ridiculous, but I wanted to get a review done because it’s indie and I enjoy the series.
Review: Black Hand, Iron Head #2
By Dustin Cabeal
Well, I’m way late to the party, but I’m still reviewing the second issue of Black Hand, Iron Head. This story is interesting. The second issue was a lot goofier than the first issue, and so I don’t quite understand the tone of the series. I liked the tone of this comic though, and I find it interesting the pairing of the sisters.
Review: Dark Beach #1-2
By Oliver Gerlach
Dark Beach is a crime story set in a future with no sun at all. It’s a neat hook that both fits very well with the genre trappings of the murder investigation and opens up for some clever and interesting world building. This is one of those proper crime noir comics that is full to bursting with a sense of place and atmosphere, and it’s an added bonus that the sci-fi concept behind it is such an enjoyable one.
Review: Look
By Dustin Cabeal
Look is a story about a robot named Artie trying to find purpose in life. Like all of us. His job is to survey the desert, and he does that job, but he doesn’t know why. He’s followed around by a buzzard named Owen, who is his friend and yet also his biggest problem to deal with at times. One day the head bots decide that Artie needs to have his memory wiped and he’s not a fan of that and breaks his programming. From there, he and Owen set off on an adventure of uncharted territory.
Review: Destiny, NY vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
When I read the concept for this graphic novel, I had a feeling I would enjoy it. The concept is that magic is a part of our world and people are given destinies of greatness, a little like a magical girl receiving her calling and having to fight some great evil. Right there you have me because magic girl. The thing is, it’s not the thing that I ended up liking about this book. Instead, it was the complex relationships and diversity of characters.
Review: Killbox: Chicago #1
By Dustin Cabeal
Ever have an advanced review turn into a late review? No probably not, but when you run a small site and have a handful of people helping you out, it, unfortunately, happens more often than not. I read Killbox: Chicago #1 a month ago, maybe more and just never sat down to review it. I review a lot each week, this week is probably my record for reviews, but there was something holding me back from reviewing this issue.
