Review: Deathstroke #14
By Dustin Cabeal
This fucking book. I say that in the nicest possible way. If you had asked me two or even five years ago, if Deathstroke would ever be this good, I would have laughed and probably said something about DC not having the balls to make a good Deathstroke title. Well apparently, someone has the balls or ovaries, I don’t pay attention to who edits this book.
Review: Red Dog #3
By Chris Tresson
Sometimes, a series just hits with you and you end up loving it when you weren’t really sure whether or not it was going to be any good in the first place… It’s happened to me with Rob Cohen’s Red Dog from 451 Media. I’ve been giving this series top marks so far and now we’re halfway through the series with this issue, so if there’s a time it should go wrong, it’ll be this issue.
Review: Infinite 7 #2
By Dustin Cabeal
More of the world is explained in the second issue of Infinite 7, but I have the feeling we’re still going to be learning about this work for at least another issue. The story jumps ahead from the shocking cliffhanger of the first issue. To put it plainly, our main character Anthony is the new Smash Brannagan having killed the previous one.
Source Point Press Brings Blood and Guts to the Big Top!

Review: Itsuwaribito vol. 20
By Dustin Cabeal
Having never read this series, this was probably the best/worst place to start. Volume 20 of Itsuwaribito is a huge payoff volume. This is the volume people having been waiting for over the course of the last nineteen volumes. It wraps up a huge storyline, but then also sets things in motion for the next big chapter of the story. That’s why it was a good place to start reading randomly.
Review: Anonymous Noise vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
I’m a big fan of music in comics. I don’t know why I just am. That doesn’t mean that it always works or that I always like it, but if your comic is about a band or a singer, I’m inclined to check it out. While Anonymous Noise wasn’t the first manga about music I’ve read, it was the first from Shojo Beat.
Review: M. Jacob Alvarez’s Hypno Spiral Comics and More
By Dustin Cabeal
Usually, I don’t like to batch review unless there’s a logical reason to do so. That’s the case with this review in which I’ll be looking at four mini-comics from M. Jacob Alvarez. Now, one of them is a full-sized comic, comic and really mini-comic is a poor label, but I have no idea what else to call them without sounding like a pompous ass.
Review: Shouwa Genroku Rakugo Shinjuu: Sukeroku Futatabi-hen E.09
By Shanel Kamara
Okay, now this is the reason why I adore this show, the reason is that whenever you think you know something it turns out that you know nothing. In other words, always expect the unexpected, which is still something I struggle to grapple with concerning this show.
Review: All Time Comics #1: Crime Destroyer #1
By Daniel Vlasaty
It appears that Fantagraphics is getting into the super-hero game. And to do so they are going all the way back to the beginning of the genre and starting from there. One of the first titles under their All Time Comics banner is Crime Destroyer, an over-the-top, ridiculous Batman stand-in. This book is fun and silly and just a straight forward book. There are no hidden messages or meanings. There’s nothing left for the reader to decipher, everything is laid out right there on the page. In thought bubbles and (possibly) an excessive amount of narration.
Review: Judge Dredd - Annual 2017
By: Laramie Martinez
It’s cliché, but I’m going to say it anyway. Science fiction has nothing to do with the future, it’s all about the now. Sometimes it’s a warning, other times it a thought experiment, but there is another aspect, one that I think gets overlooked and goes a little under appreciated. It’s when science fiction is a protest. And at it’s heart I think Judge Dredd has always had a little bit of rabble rousing in it’s system. This annual gets that. It has everything I want in a Judge Dredd comic. Split into three stories, this issue is a fantastic clash of situations which make science fiction and Judge Dredd great.
Review: The Walking Dead #165
By Robert Larson
This comes across feeling like an oddly lifeless (har har) issue of The Walking Dead, except for the very last panel, and I’m still not sold on whether or not that’s nothing more than a fake-out. I wouldn’t have thought that the fall of Alexandria would have so little going on, but as it turns out, most of this arc’s energy was spent in the first two issues. Now we’re just waiting for the Saviors to make their move, or whatever other twist might come from this arc. Warning: I will be discussing spoilers in this review, so consider yourself forewarned.
Review: Riverdale: One-Shot
By Laramie Martinez
Riverdale reads like the T.V. show on which it’s based. Containing four mini stories about the main characters, this one shot does a decent job of portraying each of the characters backgrounds and goals. However, as it serves as only an introductions, these characters aren’t as flushed out as they could have been, most of the time their voices feel “generic high school” with each character representing a cliché of high school movies and shows.

IDW To Make Comics On Hasbro Board Games... First Up Clue
By Dustin Cabeal
By and large, I have no interest in this, but I will say that it's disappointing that they're not even using the young and hip revamped characters as seen on the current version of the game. Yeah, that's right, I clue, I'm a cluer... that's what we call ourselves... now.

I picked up Transdimensional having no prior knowledge of the subject. Not even the Kickstarter description. If I had, I probably would have skipped it. I am probably one of five comics fans that don't get into sci-fi horror. The Kickstarter describes the comic as being a sci-fi horror in the same family as Alien and The Abyss. I’ve seen Alien maybe (just the one - sad face from you probably), not The Abyss. I wasn’t the proper audience for this comic. However, if I was into this type of story, I could see its appeal.
