Review: Lightrunner

By Laramie Martinez

Lightrunner is fun in the same way Saturday morning cartoons are fun. Published in 1983, by Starblaze graphics and most recently by Dover Publications, I wasn’t sure what to expect when I picked up this book for review. It turns out I had a classic example of the old school space opera. While it is definitely a product of it’s time, that doesn’t stop it from being a fun read. If you like Silver age art with a familiar yet entertaining sci-fi plot, this comic is worth checking out.

DC Reveals More Hanna-Barbera, Including Creepy Looking Snagglepuss

By Dustin Cabeal

What. The. Fuck. Is. That? Listen, the Hanna-Barbera comics have been some of the few licensed cash-ins I haven't minded because they're just so fucking weird and clearly not for children. Only a few haven't sucked and this next line-up gives me almost zero hope for the rest of the line. Howard Chaykin? Pass. Harley Quinn writers? Pass. Dan DiDio? Hard pass. Then there's Snagglepuss... it's just so fucking creepy looking, but I think I might have to read it.

Review: Planetoid: Praxis #1

By Dustin Cabeal

Having enjoyed the first volume of Planetoid, I was actually pretty excited about creator Ken Garing’s return to the world. I, of course, had some reservations about the story, would it hold up to the first volume, is a worthy addition to the universe or is it just a sequel for sequel sake? Most of these of these questions were answered by Garing in an interview I did with him prior to the release of Praxis, but there’s nothing like reading it for yourself.

Review: Vampirella #0

By Chris Tresson

This week I'm reviewing Vampirella #0 from Dynamite Entertainment... It's a new series for the character, and it's being written by Paul Cornell and drawn by Jimmy Broxton. I am not the biggest fan of Vampirella (I think the last time I read an issue of Vampirella, I tore it to shreds... it was terrible and I haven't gone back to the character since.) and I am not really that big of a fan of Zero issues… But I'm stuck for things to review this week, so I have decided to give this one a go. Let's see what I thought of it…
