Review: Twin Star Exorcists vol. 8
By Dustin Cabeal
While this hasn’t been the best battle, it has proved to reveal a lot of interesting details about the Twin Stars and their supporting cast. Twin Star Exorcists greatest strength is its utter disregard for its character’s safety. It truly feels as if no one is safe and that anyone can and will die. While that may not be true for the Twin Stars, Rokuro and Benio there feels like a countdown clock is looming over their head.
Review: Kill the Minotaur #1
By Levi Remington
Skybound has a new take on the classic myth of the Minotaur and the Labyrinth and it's delivered with impressive results. Elements of horror and adventure come together for an entertaining, heavy, and shocking story about the mad King Minos, the foul minotaur, and Theseus, the hero who can put an end to it all.
Review: Haikyu!! vol. 12
By Dustin Cabeal
If you haven’t watched the anime and are just reading the manga, then this is an important volume to pick up. I feel that with most of Haikyu!! you can actually miss a volume here and there and be okay since the tournaments are so drawn out, but this is not a volume to be missed. While it’s not as strong as the last volume, it does begin the second tournament which determines who goes to nationals and since that’s the team’s goal… well, it’s important to start the journey with them.
Review: Helena Crash #4
By Jonathan Edwards
I find it funny that even though this issue literally says "end" on the last page, signifying that this is the last issue in this limited series, some sources do still list this as "4 of 5." That being said, this is indeed the last issue (at least until they go and make and sequel series, that is). The three previous issues were all a fast and fun ride, and this one keeps right in line with that all the way up to an ending that ties everything up quite nicely. Honestly, as easy as it would be for Helena's story to be followed up upon, a part of me hopes they just leave it at the way it ends here.
Group Review: Dark Days: The Forge #1
By The Comic Bastards
Welcome to another Comic Bastards group review. In case this is your first group review on the site, here’s how it works. Each of the participating writers will give their brief thoughts and score on the book. Everyone’s score and opinion are their own, and there are no averages! Up today is the first issue of DC’s non-event, event book Dark Days: The Forge.
Review: Black Cloud #3
By Ben Snyder
Delivering a solid issue, Latour seems content with slowly unspooling a story that is getting noticeably more convoluted. Black Cloud #3 picks up directly after the second issue, with the main character Zelda drowning herself to get to the other world. However, in this instance, we are treated to some of glimpse Zelda’s history in this other world. In issue #3, we find out that Zelda was an elder of the other world and had to flee for reasons explained.
Review: Godshaper #3
By Dustin Cabeal
There are quite a few things I enjoy about this issue of Godshaper, but there’s this nagging feeling that the big reveal should have been hinted at better before this issue. We’ve got to know Ennay and Bob pretty well over the last two issues, but like all relationships, there are new things to learn and discover about each other and sure, there’s the occasional bombshell to be dropped.
Review: Regression #2
By Daniel Vlasaty
Life has not gotten any easier for Adrian. If anything, it’s actually gotten worse. After his past-life regression therapy in issue #1, his nightmares are worse and his life around them is starting to fall apart too. There are more bugs and more visions and the horror is getting more and more real for our main boy. Cullen Bunn and Danny Luckert are building something here and it’s creeping and violent. The second issue of Regression is a strong follow up to what I thought was a great first issue and I am looking forward to continue reading this series.
Review: Golden Kamuy vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
There’s gold in them thar hills… as they say. Golden Kamuy is a period story set after the Russo-Japanese War. I’m not big on period fiction unless it’s an era I particularly enjoy and so I wasn’t leaping up and down like a mad prospector for Golden Kamuy. It did entertain me as I read through its pages.
Review: Jimmy’s Bastards #1
By Dustin Cabeal
This is an interesting comic to describe. There’s a hook to the first issue that is basically the selling point of the series. With that, it’s also all right there in the title, “Jimmy’s Bastards.” The title character’s name is Jimmy and using “Bastards” in the traditional sense means a child born out of wedlock. That’s all I’ll give you really about the hook, but it's humorous. It reminded me of another comic that tried something similar but failed miserably at it.
