I have seen cosplay masks way better than that mask. Hell, I’ve seen bad cosplay better than that mask. Double hell, I have seen masks for sale that are better than the one shown on that poster. All of this is to say that I’m not very excited about Tokyo Ghoul getting a live action adaptation.

In case you missed it, Vin Diesel, who voices Groot in Guardians Of The Galaxy, recently suggested that Marvel's two greatest green heroes will be facing off in the relatively near future. Specifically, Slashfilm quoted Diesel as saying "you are going to see Groot and Hulk battle." Presumably this will happen in Infinity War, and Diesel seems pretty sure about himself, even going so far as to add, "you are going to see that poster: Hulk vs. Groot."

I’ve always liked library stories. Possibly because I spent most of my youth in them or maybe because, when you combine them with fantastic elements, they end up becoming dungeon crawls. One Week in the Library, however, is a different sort of crawl. While most library stories focus on the library itself or on the quest to find a certain item, this book tells the story of the librarian. This focus shift from archive to the archivist is an interesting take on an old trope. It doesn’t abandon the fantastic elements completely, there are still tidal waves, wild beasts, and strange characters, but in this story these encounters are just responsibilities in a job description. The true heart of this book is in the small details these events reveal about our protagonist.

Today I’m going to be reviewing Richard Corben’s Shadows on The Grave #1, from Dark Horse Comics. I have a lot of love for horror comics and I especially love horror anthologies. I like reading them and I like writing stories for them myself… I’m not claiming to be the biggest fan of Corben’s (I sure I would be if I had the time to read the entirety of his body of work), but I can definitely appreciate his talents and his knack for creating creepy stories. Without further ado, let’s jump into the review…

I’m back! And this week I’m ready for my third shot of Moonshine, which is published this week by Image Comics and produced by writer Brian Azzarello and artist Eduardo Risso. I’m not really one for review three straight issues of anything, I get bored quite easily but so far it hasn’t happened with this book. I actually look forward to reading it and if you read my first review of Moonshine you’ll know I’ve had the first three issues in my possession since before the first issue even came out. I’ve held off reading it and I’m semi-glad I did because I would’ve had to wait a couple of months for issue four which would’ve killed me. 

Press Release

Kodansha Comics has released a manga and newsfeed app dedicated to its monster-hit property, Attack on Titan. The app comes with a number of unique features:

Color me interested. I picked up the anime earlier this year, which has now been put on hold because of the podcast, and I've enjoyed all I was able to watch. Granted, the intro is ridiculous, but that's beside the point. This seems like a great way to entice new readers to the cult classic that is Rurouni Kenshin and I, for one, am all for it. Good job, Viz!

By no means am I saying that this cover is "good art" or even "classic", but can we take a moment to just appreciate the fact that something like this is still being made? Let's face it, we all love bad comic art as much as we love good comic art and a few artists have even made their fucking entire career off of bad art. Not that this is bad per se, but Archie is completely stiff and flying nuts first into a tree and somehow he doesn't have to bend his legs or move his hips to do this. And yet it's pretty amazing. It makes me want to see Archie take a tree shot to the nuts and then the rest of the issue they're just in the ER and suddenly it gets heavy as Archie might loose his balls and never have little Archie's running around with Strawberry blonde hair. Yeah, that's right, I got deep and picked a side.

The countdown to the end of the first cour of Yuri on Ice!! officially begins. Over the past several weeks, nearly every episode of the series to air has received predominantly positive attention. The original anime has created quite a stir among audiences, quickly gaining a massive fan base especially among the female demographic. Currently, I am on the fence as to whether I am glad or sad to see the end of this show - even if it is only temporary.
