Review: Zombie! The Adventure is Yours!

By Chris Tresson

Well, this is a first for me. I’ve chosen to review a choose your own adventure game this week, so not only is it my first time reviewing this type of thing, it’s also my first time playing! Huzzah! This CYOA (abbreviation game on point) is Zombie: The Adventure is Yours, written by Walch, drawn by Jon Lankry and released by IDW. Apparently, it has been translated (by Ivanka Hahnenberger) from another language, too… Seems like they done did a good job of that. Enough of that anyways, let’s get into it.

Review: Nailbiter #27

By Mike Badilla

We left off with Warren being shot by some random guy and left for dead out in the street. Who is the masked man that shot him? Why did he do it? Will he survive? Let's keep reading and find out. I don't even know yet, I write these as I read the book. We can be surprised together.

Review: Godkiller vol. 1

By Laramie Martinez

Godkiller Vol.1 takes place in a dark, confusing, post-apocalyptic world where magic and technology collide to make everyone miserable. At least that’s how I’ve come to understand it. From all the hype surrounding this book, the two main points that kept showing up were Uber-violence and hyper sexuality. And while this comic does indeed contain those things you get the feeling that all the “edgy” content is just there to be “edgy”. If you strip away the sex and violence, all you have is a sub-par story with a lot of scatters story arch littered throughout.

Review: Serenity: No Power in the Verse #2

By Laramie Martinez

I’m going to be up front with you all. This issue wasn’t as good as the last one. It might be because the nostalgia has worn off or it might be the equivalent of a sophomore slump of a second issue. What I do know is that there are some things I liked about this comic and other things I didn’t. If you want to see me write about them take a look below.

TellTale Reveals Guardians of the Galaxy Video Game

By Dustin Cabeal

If you're happy about this then kiss the ground James Gunn walks on because before that fucking movie no one gave two shits about this franchise outside of the Marvel Cosmic fans. Hell, if it was up to Joe Q., he would have fucking buried the Cosmic line during his time as EIC. I bet the top brass are glad he didn't and that they snagged Chris Pratt for the lead because we all know he's what made your panties moist. Anyway, I bet this ends up a lot like the Batman one.

Review: Reggie and Me #1

By Justin Wood

Why do I do this to myself? Let's be honest, there is probably never going to be an Archie title that will itch what makes me read comics. A good critic tries his damnedest to approach things with an even keel, to give all kinds of art its due and day in court, but to ignore that we all come to the art table with different things that brought us there is to ignore what makes us individuals.

Review: Planet of Daemons #1

By Chris Tresson

I’ve been looking at this title just sitting on our review list for a couple of weeks now. I wanted someone else to review it because I recently worked with the artist on this book and thought it would be a somewhat biased review of the book. But with the quality of the mainstream comics on offer this week being poor, and this book coming out this week, it’s pretty much forced my hand.

Review: Fuuka – Ch. 134

By Dustin Cabeal

This review is my first time attempting to cover an individual chapter of a current manga. Fuuka, if you recall from the CBMFP, was a story that I feel in love with hard! I mean over a hundred chapters in a day. I forgot to eat at one point and wondered why my head hurt because I was so into this story.

Review: Prison School vol. 5

By Dustin Cabeal

I have been waiting for this volume for what seems like forever. I pre-ordered it and got it on the day of release and unfortunately had to wait an extra day to read it and now review it. It was worth the wait. I’ve read a lot in the past few months… okay, I read a lot in general, but in the past few months, nothing has satisfied my reading appetite. Some left me hungry for more, while others were an undesirable meal leaving me craving a story that had some meat on it. Damn, am I hungry? Are you hungry? Ready to take a big ole’ bite of… butt… or something?

Review: Tank Girl: Gold #2

By Mike Badilla

Tank Girl: Gold is the first TG series I've ever read, which I know is blasphemy among certain comic book circles. I own some of the trades, I got the gist of it before, but I just never gave it the time of day. So glad I did now, as this is one title that I look forward to. Last issue saw the resurrection of Sub Girl as well as the discovery of billions of dollars worth of gold on the sub. Other stuff happened, including that dingo (name forgotten) getting some action that caused his..... member to get swollen. STD? I guess. The whole this is weird, but in a fun way. Don't read into it so much.

Review: Seven to Eternity #3

By Mike Badilla

It's already been a month since the last issue of Seven to Eternity? Well that's just enough time for me to have forgotten everything about this book except for the fact that I enjoyed the last issue. Recap; Adam is the head of what was a royal family that was cast out of their royal setting by the Mud King, a guy with the power to put a 'whisper' into anyone's head, which not only can manipulate the person but also allows the king to hear anything through the persons ears. Cool, right? Adam was told by his father to never make a deal with the king, but because Adam is dying and his family is constantly being harassed, he decides to make a deal. The deal Adam is offered? Being cured of what is killing him.

Review: No Angel #1

By Dustin Cabeal

I really, really, really fucking tried to overlook the fact that this was someone in Hollywood using comics as a backdoor to getting a passed on project made. It’s not uncommon, hell that’s how Cowboys and Aliens got made. Adrianne Palicki’s involvement made me weary of this comic because of that, but it is a Black Mask title so I hoped it would be different.

Review: Batman Annual #1

By Chris Tresson

We’re nearing the end of the year and that means it’s annual season in the comic book industry… Since becoming a comic book shop owner, I’ve been paying more attention to annuals (I’ve picked up a fair few this year purely because I can.) Before that all I ever got was Daredevil annuals and Batman annuals.

Review: Savage #1

By Dustin Cabeal

I’m going to try and stay as positive as possible on this opening. Savage is a great looking book. It is by far some of the best art coming out of Valiant at the moment, and Lewis Larosa and Clayton Henry only seem to get better every time I see either of their work. If you go for art over the story, then this is the book for you.

Review: Tarzan on the Planet of the Apes #3

By Patrick Larose

There’s an experiment you can play while reading Tarzan on the Planet of the Apes, every time the current tension has played out and they’d need to cut away to move forward—stop on that page.

Then, as you slowly turn the page, see if the next one has dinosaurs attacking.
