Review: Reborn #2
By Dustin Cabeal
My fear with this series is on display in the second issue of Reborn. It’s almost as if Mark Millar came to terms with his own mortality and arrived on the age-old question of the afterlife. He then came up with a pretty brilliant idea of the afterlife being a fantasy world in which we inhabit a random person’s body and fight an eternal battle for good and evil.
Review: Revolution: G.I. Joe #1
By Mike Badilla
Here's what I know about this whole Revolution thing: nothing. It has to do with Rom, and the Transformers, and GI Joe and who knows who else, but I don't know what. The recap page states that when the Earth Defense Command failed to push back the Autobots and Decepticons, GI Joe took over. Joe Colton, head of GI Joe, is killed during a mission to stop the Cybertronians. Scarlett is in charge now. Joe Colton was not the real Joe Colton, but a Dire Wraith imposter. I'm not kidding, this is the recap page. Everything crystal clear now?
Review: Star Trek: Waypoint #2
By Dustin Cabeal
Yeah… this is more like what I was expecting from this series. God damn that first issue was so fucking good and this issue. Well, this issue is exactly what I thought it would be.
Review: Jackboot and Ironheel #4
By Mike Badilla
Jackboot and Ironheel has been an awesome WWII sci-fi series so far. In case you've missed the first three issues, a quick recap: Eddie Neale was set to be a famous footballer in England when he was drafted into the Royal Air Force and sent to fight against the Germans. His plane was shot down, he was captured and taken to Lungotz Luftzig prison. In the prison, there are strange happenings including hauntings and inexplicable deaths of the guards! Some of the nuns have befriended Eddie, as well as one of the guards, which was bad news for young Sister Evangeline, as she was caught helping Eddie and shot by one of the guards. We left of with her dying in Eddies arms...
Review: Vampire Hunter D: Message From Mars #1 (of 5)
By Dustin Cabeal
Vampire Hunter D is one of those properties that I imagine were pretty interesting and different when they first premiered. Now with years and years of storytelling, it’s just an OG brand that will continue much like hundreds of others in comics and other forms of media. If we’re honest, and I am, Vampire Hunter D hasn’t been relevant or interesting in decades.
Review: Yakuza Demon Killers #1
By Dustin Cabeal
Lately, IDW has been amping up its original IP’s, which is a good thing. I would much rather check out something like Yakuza Demon Killers over their latest Transformers title: Transformers: The Training Wheels Are Off! or Revolting: How Many Hasbro Licenses Do We Have?! (Side note, great job taking all the individually successful brands and slamming them into a shared universe, I’m so interested now… so interested).

Review: Moonshine #2
By Chris Tresson
I’ve been sitting on this issue since even before issue one came out. I got sent the first three issues and I had to make the tough decision of either reading them all in one go or reading and reviewing them as they came out in stores. I opted for the latter after reading issue one because the prospect of going a couple of months to find out what happens in issue four would’ve done my fuckin’ nut in. So this is my review of the second issue of that Brian Azzarello/Eduardo Risso creator-owned joint, Moonshine. Published by Image Comics and out this week at your local comic book shop!
Review: SLAM! #1
By Dustin Cabeal
Roller Derby. That is the subject of SLAM! from Pamela Ribon and Veronica Fish. I have read a lot of a roller derby comics in my time at Comic Bastards. I know that seems weird, but I can think of more than a few titles off the top of my head. I’m not here to review them, though; I’m here to review SLAM!.
IDW Announces Highlander Prequel Comic
By Dustin Cabeal
If you've listened to the CBMFP over the years you may have picked up on the fact that I'm a big Highlander fan. Aside from watching all of the movies, and I do mean all of the movies, I also watched that really shitty cartoon they did... also an animated movie. Maybe those are the same thing, if they're not I've seen them both! Point is, I should be a little excited by this because I've willing sat through a lot of bad Highlander shit, is a comic cashing in on that really that bad? But it's IDW... which kills any excitement, but even worse than that they're calling it a prequel to the movie which is just stupid.
