Review: The Lost Boys #1

By Chris Tresson

The Lost Boys is one of my all-time favorite movies. I absolutely love it. Imagine my surprise, if you will, when I find out that Vertigo were putting out a comic book set in the movie universe. I had to give this one a go, just to see how they’d handled it. The story opens in Santa Carla and we’re given a little backstory about what happened in the movie. We meet the Frog brothers and Sam and Michael again. They’re all getting on with their lives. Michael’s working in a nursing home and Sam works in the local comic shop now. The Frog brothers are being the Frog brothers still, now receiving trained from Sam and Michael’s Grandpa. There’s loads of chit chat in this and then we get to Grandpa Emerson and his Santa Carla Hunter’s Society having a meeting, which is soon interrupted by some vampires… I’ll leave it there. No spoilers from me, bro.

Review: Frostbite #1

By Chris Tresson

This week, I’m looking at the first issue of frostbite, a new science fiction story from Joshua Williamson and Jason Shawn Alexander which is being published by Vertigo. It’s something different from this publisher, I can’t remember the last Sci-fi Title I read from Vertigo…Nope. I was going to fill in what I thought it was right there but I still can’t think what it could've been. I’m going to say this is the first they’ve put out in a while. So it’s a step in a different direction for the moment for Vertigo but for comics as a whole, it’s just another drop in the ocean. Let’s get to it…

CBMFP 253: Shared Universe

By Dustin Cabeal

There's a weird hiccup at the beginning that couldn't be fixed. It's over quickly so don't worry about it too much. After that we discuss more nerd suits, that's right, nerds are taking over fashion... or are they? Ghost in the Shell released some teaser things, and we address what they kind of are. DC's writer program announced the class of 2016 or something. It's a fellowship of sorts, let's get over the whole school thing. There's more TV talk as well, including the season premiere of Agents of Shield. Exciting.
