Monster & Wine: Episode 99 - Chris Cornell Is Not A Cowboy
By Jason Beckham
At least, I don't think he is. Anyway, this episode has a lot to do with television. In case you haven't heard, there's a lot of good shows out there right now. Designated Survivor, Gotham, Supergirl, American Horror Story, Westworld and Empire are discussed and believe you me, not all of the talk is positive. Monster gives a review for the DC film, "Suicide Squad," and the duo discuss the Resident Evil film franchise, as well as Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.
Review: Luke Cage E.04 – “Step in the Arena”
By Patrick Larose
Luke Cage’s history of a comic book character was born from the popularization of the Blaxploitation film genre during the 1970s. A bunch of white dudes caught on by how popular these action movies made by black people and starring black people were getting that they saw a new market to, well, exploit.
Review: Black Lotus Empire #1
By Dustin Cabeal
We as comic book readers have a general understand and acceptance that not every first issue is going to be a polished diamond. Some are going to be rough around the edges and actually that’s not a bad thing. I have read too many great first issues only to be disappointed by everything that followed. I’ll take a rough diamond any day. That said, Black Lotus Empire isn’t perfect, but it’s very enjoyable.
Review: Fune wo Amu E.01
By Shanel Kamara
Okay, so the artwork is not what drew me in at first, what did it for me was the novel and compelling storyline. There have been several types of anime under various genres, such as slice of life, comedy, shonen, etc. that have mainly dealt with professions including the police, detective agencies, espionage, manga and anime production, but never till now has there been one about publishing or more specifically about the editing and publishing of dictionaries. To be honest, the first thing that comes to mind when I think of editing is the editing of news, magazines, books, films, and shows. I have never once considered the intricate procedure involved in editing dictionaries.
Review: Drifters E.01
By Robert Ramos
It’s October and you know what that means: fall season of anime is upon us. With that comes something that I’ve read a couple chapters of and wanted to check out after hearing it was being animated. I’m talking about none other than Drifters. It’s from the creator of Hellsing so how bad could it possibly be? Well...
Review: Yuri!! On Ice E.02
By Shanel Kamara
I definitely intend on seeing this show through to the end. The prospect of watching characters develop, grow, and transform completely is not only exciting but also inspiring. The third episode airs next week and I already feel, as though the primary message that this anime is conveying is that change is only possible for those who strive for it.
Review: Luke Cage E.03 - "Who's Gonna Take the Weight"
By Patrick Larose
If the first two episodes of Luke Cage were like watching superhero Shakespeare, then "Who’s Gonna Take the Weight” is all about becoming an emotional catharsis to answer our pent-up frustration with tragedy. When people talk about Shakespeare or when they call something Shakespearean, they’re usually talking about dudes in puffy shirts, star-crossed characters, and big speeches. You won't catch me doing that, though. I'd offer up , rather, that at the core of every Shakespeare play are characters who are driven by complex needs and forced to navigate their complex social and political hierarchies. They’re a realm of emotional politicking and that description is what the first two episodes of Luke Cage felt like.
Review: All-Star Batman #3
By Justin Wood
Before the release of Jordan Claes' All-Star Batman #2 review, I'd heard through the editorial grapevine that he'd made my less than pleasant review of #1 look like a pull quote for the series. Consider my interest having been piqued, but come that Wednesday, having read the comic for myself as prep, I was honestly surprised that the review hadn't been harsher. All-Star Batman #2 was one of the worst comics I've read all year, maybe the worst from the Big Two, though Aquaman #2 definitely stands in the running. I don't have a lingering curiosity for what DC has to do next, once Deadman: Dark Mansion of Forbidden Love is done I can go back to fucking off in the dust collecting indie section at my local failing comic shop. That said, with recent events, both related and not related to All-Star Batman,; I now feel it is some sort of meager duty to cover this book specifically until this terrible storyline ends. I'll pay for it if I have to.
Review: Fight Club 2: Library Edition HC
By Mike Badilla
Fight Club: You've probably seen the movie, you've possibly read the book, you can definitely quote that line about what not to talk about. Here is the sequel to that story. The original was obviously well received and is a cult classic, so making a part 2 in a comic book format is odd. However, if you've read or watched anything from Chuck Palahniuk, you know that's the kind of thing you should come to expect from him and his work: odd, violent, funny, philosophical, odd. Whatever happened to everyone's favorite nobody with the split personality and his kooky love life? Find out here.
