Review: Underwinter #2

By Jonathan Edwards

Hrm, this is not the second issue I expected. At first, I thought it was, and I got excited. But as I read on, the promise of a deeper exploration of the demonic forces teased previously quickly gave way to decompressed check-ins with each of the quartet's members. Okay, I thought to myself, it's just reorienting us, and then it's going really dig in. A few pages later, it was suddenly over. I was surprised, and I couldn't help but wish there had been a bit more. In that regard, you could say that this issue was something of a letdown. Although, it is still enjoyable.

Review: My Hero Academia E.018

By Shanel Kamara

Things are heating up at UA academy's sports festival, literally. The competition between Bakugou, Midoriya, and Todoroki is fierce; it’s non-stop action from start to finish with Midioriya being the center of it all; Class 1-B’s presence only makes matters more explosive when Neito Monoma, a student from Class 1-B, challenges Class 1-A by abruptly taking Bakugou’s headband. Neito’s bold and rather shrewd move garners a lot of attention for Class 1-B, and for the second time this season we get the chance to find out what some of the students from Class 1-B abilities are. Neito’s copying ability is reminiscent of Rogue from the X-men; his snide personality only exacerbates Bakugou further.

Unboxing: Loot Crate - April 2017

By Dustin Cabeal

Whoo! Here's the last video of the day. Hopefully, you checked out the last two Star Wars Builders videos ( Starfighters and Millennium Falcon ) and also this month's Loot Anime unboxing. This month's Loot Crate had some junk. I wish I could say that nicer, but the X-Files tie-in was garbage and I've yet to meet anyone that genuinely like Jessica Jones or cared to own anything from the show. Even the Stranger Things tie-in was kind of meh. Really you could have called this box a Netflix and friends box, but whatever. There is one Batman related item that was fan-fucking-tastic.

Unboxing: Loot Anime - April 2017

By Dustin Cabeal

Are you tired of videos yet? I hope not because I'm still making them. Thankfully I got both Loot Anime and Loot Crate on the same day so I was able to pump out both and will hopefully be done with video reviews for a hot minute. This month's Loot Anime wasn't bad actually, some really impractical things like a pencil that you need a knife to sharpen. Ah, you'll see, but it was pretty good. Still not sure why the "Anime" box continues to give me "Manga", but that's the breaks or something.

Trailer Time: JoJo's Bizarre Adventure... It's Everything You'd Expect and More

By Dustin Cabeal

I don't even know what to say... it was like watching Diamond is Unbreakable,  only with real people. I only wish that JoJo #1 was a bit more ripped diesel, but he pulled the rest of the look off perfectly. No idea what anyone is saying though, I didn't bother with YouTube's weird "let's try closed caption and get it wrong!" setting, but I imagine it's just like the show.

History of Stuff Presents History of Comic Books

By Dustin Cabeal

Our good friend and one-time reviewer of the site Carl is back with his YouTube series called "History of Stuff." He takes a look at things like Pizza, Comic Books, and Toliet Paper... yes, Toilet Paper. Granted Carl is my friend so I'm going to be a bit biased when viewing anything he does, but then I also manage to fairly evaluated comics of past writers all the time. My point, this is good TV so give it a view, a share and a like.
