Review: All Out E.01

By Shanel Kamara

Muscles, a token female, and a whole lot of testosterone, and tears; unfortunately, All Out is just another typical sports themed anime that boasts of no defining features or unique traits. To be frank, I partially expected it to be so. Although All Out is undeniably a sports themed anime show, I actually think of it as a shonen series.

Review: Batgirl #5

By Patrick Larose

I initially intended this review to be a follow-up, post-mortem of my review for issue #4. I wanted to summarize in a type of I-Told-You-So style about how the series failed to utilize its own new concepts and rushed its story to the end.

Review: Doctor Strange

By Dustin Cabeal

Finally finding the time to see Doctor Strange I felt the overwhelming need to review the film. I’ve had an interest in this film since its announcement and casting because A) I like Benedict Cumberbatch and B) I wanted to see who Marvel would handle an unknown character in their cinema universe.

Unboxing: Loot Crate November 2016

By Dustin Cabeal

The theme this month is "Magical", but this box is anything but. There's some Doctor Strange merch, a shirt that could have been cool if you could actually tell what fucking movie it was from and one of the worst comic books of the year. That's right, the mystery has been solved, BOOM! got Big Trouble in Little China/Escape From New York #1 in the top spot on Diamond's list by getting it added to Loot Crate... oh you poor subscribers. Seriously, that is quite possibly the worst, if not close to the worst, comic I've read all year. Basically this month's box kinda sucked and felt pretty light on merch.

Review: The Killer Inside Me #3

By Mike Badilla

Jim Thompson's 'The Killer Inside Me' is based on an old book of the same name. It's now a comic. It's supposed to be a glimpse into the mind of a serial killer long before we knew about men like Dahmer and Gacy and all those family favorites. This is issue 3 of 5, and I haven't read 1 or 2, so this may not be the most succinct review of the story so far, but I sure do like serial killers, so lets dive in.

Review: Night's Dominion #3

By Laramie Martinez

The last two issues of Night’s Dominion have taken us through an interesting and exciting world at a breakneck pace. We’ve seen a team come together, a heist go awry, and uncovered a conspiracy underneath the city. This issue, by comparison feels like the issue where we pay the piper. Slower than the previous two, Naifeh introduces a lot of new characters and storylines. While I have previously welcomed his twists and turns of the narrative. The ones introduced here feel like he’s trying to do too much. Overall, the pacing doesn’t ruin the issue but it does bring it down from the heights this series has achieved in the past.

Review: Frostbite #3

By Mike Badilla

Frostbite. From about 12 seconds of research online, I've found that this series takes place in the future. Global warming has caused the world to become a frozen wasteland. We see how people are reacting and living in this future time. Every one loves apocalyptic future stories, right? Right? It's also being described as a 'western', but it takes place in a frozen Los Angeles. Hmm...
