Review: The Girl in the Midnight Gown

By Patrick Wolf

Years ago I watched M. Night Shyamalan’s first bad movie: The Village. What’s interesting about The Village is that the film isn’t terrible in-itself. Had the movie been marketed honestly, I’m sure it would’ve received better reviews. The problem was The Village was advertised as a horror when really it was a romance, and that sat poorly with viewers. In many ways, The Girl in the Midnight Gown suffers from a similar fate.

Review: Untold # 1

By Patrick Wolf

There are two kinds of horror stories: masterworks that move us and filth that sickens us. While Untold doesn’t fit smoothly into any of these categories, it definitely leans more towards the latter. So, if you’re into smut stories like The Human Centipede or I Spit on your Grave, this is probably right up your lane. If you’re looking for something more akin to The Shinning or Aliens, however, I’d keep looking.

Mad At Joss Whedon For His Wonder Woman Script? Okay, but Maybe You Shouldn’t Be

Everyone is high on Wonder Woman at the moment, and that’s great, it’s actually long due, but as fans tend to do they want to digest everything imaginable for a character after falling in love with them on the big screen. I get it, some people just want more media to digest, but only if it’s in movie format. Instead of reading a bunch of great Wonder Woman comics, people got a hold of Joss Whedon’s unproduced Wonder Woman script from 2007. The differences in quality and message outraged the internet. Which isn’t surprising, but let’s look at this for a moment.

Review: My Hero Academia E.025

By Shanel Kamara

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed how different Todoroki’s hair looks since his battle with Midoriya. It’s funny how his hair almost reflects his state of mind. Before his hair was flat and lifeless giving him an air of indifference, frigidity, and formality but after his fight with Midoriya it has assumed a more tousled look.

Review: Justice League of America #8

By Jonathan Edwards

No, this book still isn't any good, and no, I won't leave it alone. This issue feels like a whole new low in the perpetual suck that is this series. On top of characters being dumb, inconsistent, and poorly written, loads of development happening offpanel, a shitton of sloppy exposition telling us about said development, as well as an entirely artificial and manufactured conflict regarding the "hypocrisy" of Batman, Justice League of America #8 has the most convoluted train wreck of a story to date. Makson is a shit-tier villain, an even worse character, and the "twist" is flimsy and contrived at best. The fact that DC currently lists five more issues of JLA, all still written by Orlando, is insanity and could be used as proof for us living in an unfair world.

Review: Briggs Land: Lone Wolves #1

By Shawn Warner

Brian Wood has always been one of those writers that all I needed to see was his name on the cover and that particular book would not only ended on the counter with that week's new books, but inevitably on my pull list. Briggs Land was no different, I grabbed the first issue and raced home to read it as I had done with his Star Wars, DV8 and so many other great series, but Briggs Land was different and not at all in a bad way. Woods, for as good as he already was, was growing into an even better writer/ storyteller with this series.
