Duel Review: Dark Nights: Metal #1

By Dustin and Daniel

Welcome to our first duel review in a long ass time. A duel review is similar to a group review, but with only two people. I’ll be honest I never know which duel/dual to use… pick the one you like better. Anyway, Daniel and Dustin will give their thoughts on Dark Nights: Metal #1 along with their individual scores! It’s like two reviews… get it?

Synopsis: All the “Meta’s” are “Metal’s” and Batman is from an evil bat tribe.

Review: Breaking Up Is Hard To Do, But You Could’ve Done Better

By Dustin Cabeal

I love the title for this book. Breaking Up Is Hard To Do, But You Could’ve Done Better instantly grabs you. Now, not knowing anything about the book beforehand I had my own ideas of what it would be about and let’s just say that it was nothing like my mind wanted it to be. I was, however, able to quickly move on from what I made up and latch on to what it is actually about.

Review: Lady Stuff: Secrets to Being a Woman

By Dustin Cabeal

Lady Stuff won me over with the cover. It got a slight chuckle out of me, and so I knew that I wanted to read it. Now… I’m not a lady, but I am married to one, and so I found this book to be quite amusing. It wasn’t exactly stuff I didn’t know about, but rather for me it was things I can relate to on the other side of the aisle.

Review: It’s Snot Fair!

By Dustin Cabeal

In my constant quest to find kids’ books to enjoy with my son, I tried out. It’s Snot Fair! I’m not one of those parents that shy away from potty humor… which is a big duh if you’ve ever heard a podcast with me on it.

Review: Dark Ark #1

By Patrick Wolf

We all know the story of Noah’s ark: Noah rounds up two of every animal, herds them onto his vessel, and keeps them alive until the great flood subsides. But, what if there was another person with the same idea as Noah? And what if, instead of rescuing the animals of the natural world, this person rescued the monsters of the unnatural world? In this dark reimagining of Noah’s ark, Cullen Bunn continues his hot streak of resurrecting old tales and casting a new light on them. So far, this is definitely his best.

Review: Batman #29

By Daniel Vlasaty

DC, man, you're killing me with all these "wars" and "events" and on and on and on. This is the ever-increasing problem I've been having with superhero comics as of late, especially those from DC. They're all trying to do too much. And in the process, we're losing little bits and pieces of the characters. We're losing the things we love about these characters to – what I'm going to call – the Hollywood movie mentality in comics right now. Big stories with action and energy but not much else. What ever happened to focusing on the smaller things. What ever happened to character development. Not everything has to be END OF THE WORLD motherfucking huge. Not everything has to be earth shattering. But I digress.
