Review: Samaritan Veritas #2
By Ashley Gibbs
Things are getting pretty complicated for Sam in Samaritan Veritas #2. She’s on a mission to take down the President of the United States and end his corruption, but she’s also a wanted criminal knee-deep in the dark and unspeakable parts of the internet. Not above breaking laws to complete her revenge plot she’s hacking, kidnapping and plotting her way to success. Or so she thinks. The government isn’t as stupid as she imagines and they’re hot on her tail. While Sam is willing to go down in a blaze of glory to complete her objective she can’t do so just yet, the game of cat-and-mouse continues.
Review: Rock Candy Mountain #4
By Daniel Vlasaty
I know what you’re thinking. Here’s me giving Kyle Starks a verbal blowjob in the form of another glowing review for a book I clearly love that is super fucking awesome and blah blah blah. Okay. Well here it is. I guess. I don’t know. But Rock Candy Mountain #4 is out and it’s the last issue in the first story arc. And, yes, I’ll just come out and say it. It’s great, like the rest of the issues. And here is my review of it.
Review: Injustice 2 #5
By Ashley Gibbs
The world is in shambles after Superman’s Regime took over by force only to be defeated by Batman, now Bruce is trying to rebuild things, but there are other forces working against him. Injustice 2 #5 serves as an introduction to Jaime Reyes as Blue Beetle but focuses more on his mentor and predecessor Ted Kord. It’s an interesting story and also a rather sad one, and while I’m not well-versed in either character, I felt this issue did a good job of presenting both of them to me, and I think fans of the characters will also enjoy the writing.

Review: Diablo House #1
By Ben Snyder
Welcome to Diablo House, where morality-themed knock-offs of Twilight Zone stories get told. Calling them knockoffs can sound negative, and while not all bad, Diablo House #1 doesn’t instill much hope for the future of this horror anthology series.
Review: Extremity #5
By Patrick Wolf
Ever wanted something so bad, you’ll do anything for it?—even if it means you’ll feel guilty as hell? I know this happens to me every week whenever I buy a bunch of overpriced Magic the Gathering cards. At first, I want them so bad; I’m like: “Who cares? They’re totally worth it man.” But then I buy them and realize they weren’t worth it. I’m just a moron. Well, something like this happens in this month’s installment of Extremity—just ten-times worse. How far would you go to get revenge? And is it worth the price of your soul?
Review: Mania #1 & 2
By Wes Jones
What if ADHD was the reason Quicksilver is so fast or dissociative identity disorder was the cause of Mystique’s shape-shifting abilities? MANIA presents us with a future where mentally ill tech mutants called ‘supermanics’ are the result of futuristic cybernetic tinkering. It’s 2052 in the completely automated city of New Renard, and all citizens are provided with a neural implant called the ARC. When the ARC is implanted into people with normal brain chemistry, it works as a sort of personal assistant with a HUD — think a fully-realized Microsoft HoloLens. Those with mental health issues, however, may cause the ARCs to malfunction and they end up with superpowers because comic books.
Review: Supernatural Agents #1
By Patrick Wolf
Have you ever seen one of those cheap, Chinese knockoffs? What’s interesting about these products is how they’re so similar and yet so different from the real thing. We can almost always identify a counterfeit Spiderman toy, and yet we can’t help but marvel at how similar it is to the genuine article. I think part of the reason for this phenomenon is that the Chinese knockoff isn’t a straightforward copy: it’s just so generic it feels like a duplicate. Jim Hachey’s Supernatural Agents #1 has a similar feel. While it’s not a direct rip-off, the artwork, story, and characters are so imitative; you’ll get that same feeling you experience whenever you see a counterfeit: it looks like the real thing, but it’s just too generic to be it.
Review: Enmusubi no Youko-chan E.01
By Shanel Kamara
Okay so with the start of the release of the summer line-up shows, I decided this week to opt for one of the new series as opposed to my usual. Unfortunately, there wasn’t much of a selection to choose from (as I usually watch the show on a Saturday afternoon and write the review on a Sunday morning) so I ended up watching the Japanese adaption of the popular Chinese work Huyao Xiao Hongniang (in English known as Fox Spirit Matchmaker and in Japanese Enmusubi no Youko-chan). Frankly, I didn’t intend on watching and reviewing this show; originally, my plan was to review the fourteenth episode of the second season of Boku no Hero Academia but for some inexplicable reason, or maybe not so inexplicable, no episode aired this week due to the fact that the first arc of the season has ended.

Review: In This Corner of the World
By Dustin Cabeal
Animated movies from Japan tend to be amazing from a story and film perspective. Not because I’m biased, while I do love animated films in general, I will always prefer 2-D animation. No, the real reason is that it is 2-D animation and the bulk of the world has moved on from caring about the art form. It’s a shame, but because of that stories like In This Corner of the World aren’t held to the same storytelling restraints that most films are nor are they pigeonholed into tropes like anime. Simply put, Is This Corner of the World only works in this format because it’s allowed to create a new storytelling narrative that doesn’t rely on the three-act structure or any other structure that you’d associate with Japan.

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.
