Review: Griff Gristle: The Siren’s Song
By Justin McCarty

Griff and Justine find themselves chasing a mysterious cult committed to ridding the world of blasphemers, especially Griff Gristle. They will challenge Griff in new ways as well as make him deal with the loss of his wife.
Review: What Does Consent Really Mean?
By Ben Boruff
In May of 2016, I participated in Chicagoland's This Is My Brave event. Actors, essayists, and storytellers of all types shared memories about mental illness with a live audience. This Is My Brave, Inc. is a national organization that strives to "end the stigma surrounding mental health issues by sharing personal stories."Several months later, I gathered a binder's worth of materials to defend the teaching of an award-winning graphic novel in a high school classroom. I argued that many comics and graphic novels offer a unique reading experience in which symbolically rich visuals fuel the potency of multifaceted narratives. One page in my binder included a quote often attributed to French-Swiss film director Jean-Luc Godard: "Sometimes reality is too complex. Stories give it form."
Review: Sink #1
By Dustin Cabeal
If I wanted to, I could name two movies and infer that Sink is in several ways the love child of the two movies and it would be enough to convince you of not only the quality but the excitement that is Sink. I could do that, but we’re talking about a comic, and quite frankly I have never read anything like Sink before. Perhaps I’ll tell you the name of the movies at the end of the review, and if you’re so inclined, you can jump to the end and call it a day. If you stay, well then that means you must love comics and are dying to know about ComixTribe’s newest title.
Review: Shadow Vol. 3 #2
By Justin McCarty
The pieces are falling into place in issue two of The Shadow Vol. 3. The circumstances leading up to The Shadow's last appearance and the burned gentleman’s arrival at the hospital are starting to make the news. Mary’s story starts to take shape as she recruits her sister in the mission to find out who Mr. Crispy might be. The whole thing possibly goes all the way to the President!
Review: Hard Boiled (Second Edition)
By Daniel Vlasaty
This is the second edition of Hard Boiled. It's written by Frank Miller, drawn by Geof Darrow, and colored by Dave Stewart. It originally came out in 1990, but I didn’t read it back then. Most probably because I was only five years old at the time. This is the first time I've ever read it actually, although I was aware that it was a thing that existed in the world before. Just never got around to reading it. I guess.
Review: Kill or Be Killed #12
By Ben Snyder
Every issue of Kill or Be Killed is one to remember and issue #12 is no exception. What started as a tale of a hallucinating schizophrenic trying to reason why his murders were just and the right thing to do, has evolved into a commentary on the state of society and its justice system, a deep involving look at the mind of someone dealing with mental illness, a hopeful view on love, and so much more. Kill or Be Killed #12 is one of my favorite issues of the series for reasons the series has never touched on before. Dylan has a legitimate, at least to him, motivation for committing murders now.
Review: Dark Nights: Metal #2
By Justin McCarty
They said this would be crazy. So far they are right. The second entry into Dark Nights: Metal probably left me with more questions than answers, though. I mean, I got what was going on, after two one shots, and the first issue of this series, however, I still had to go back and reread to keep up.
Review: Realm #1
By Patrick Wolf
Picture a world filled with demons, monsters, dragons, and any other fantasy creature you can visualize. Now imagine, instead of having this world set in the usual medieval environment, you find these creatures in a future apocalypse. Such is the world of Realm. Toss out all your preconceived notions of the divide between fantasy and sci-fi and get ready to drool over this grand world created by Seth M. Peck and illustrated by Jeremy Haun. All I got to say is if you’re into dark, sci-fi thrillers and want to take a chance on a new series; this franchise is definitely worth the plunge.
Review: Mister Miracle #2
By Justin McCarty
What is it about the nine-panel grid that automatically gives a comic book the feel of literature? It feels like King, Gerards, and Cowles are elevating the art form. Every element stays true to the point of the story. Just like in the first issue, what is on the surface is wholly juxtaposed to what is just beneath. After almost dying in his most dangerous stunt yet Scott and Barda are off to New Genesis to deal with invading Apokalips armies.
Review: Dread Gods #2
By Ben Snyder
After the initial chapter’s intense action and hints at a destroyed world, Dread Gods #2 instead focuses on the world of the “Gods.” It’s not entirely bad as it does somewhat clarify what exactly the “Gods” are, but it lacks the secondary storytelling that made the first issue so exciting.
