Review: Space Copz – Cereal Zombies

By Dustin Cabeal

I can see what Space Copz is attempting. It's reminiscent of a 90s afternoon cartoon, the second golden age of animation in which material was being made for children, but enjoyed by all. The story is wholesome and full of inoffensive jokes that are mostly about children.

Review: Graveland #1

By Patrick Wolf

So, you watched Attack on Titan and loved the storyline, but felt the dialogue was a little too annoying? Maybe you wished for an American giant-monster-story that takes place in contemporary society, but also is grounded in realism? Well, look no further because Graveland has everything you loved about Attack on Titan and more: it’s violent, it’s gory, it’s action-packed, and it’s way too bloodthirsty for your own good. So, if you’re into realistic portraits of doom and giants slaughtering helpless soldiers, this is definitely your poison.

Review: My First Girlfriend Is a Gal

By Dustin Cabeal

What a strange little show this turned out to be. Full of highs and lows, none of them emotional, just quality wise, highs and lows. It ended up only being ten episodes long, which is strange in that I know this is one of the most popular new anime at the moment. At least with the English language market. They probably hit a section of the story in which they didn’t have enough time to get into the rest of the story and so they ended it where it made the most sense… at least that’s what I imagine happened.

Review: Zakudoh #1

By Dustin Cabeal

Writing a low scoring review that only brings up the negative aspects of a comic book is not fun. It’s not something any reviewer wants to do. It’s so much easier to write good reviews, but when a comic is bad, it’s bad. That’s all there is to it. I don’t have anything against Zakudoh personally, but it was a bad comic. I'm telling you all this beforehand because I’m going to make jokes, I’m going to try and at least have fun with my review, so it softens the blow or at the very least makes this review easier to read. I am here for the readers after all. But it’s important to remember that the name of the site doesn’t dictate our approach or skew our opinion of a comic, I would much rather have liked Zakudoh than to dislike it.

BOOM! Studios Announces New Full-Color Edition of Pizzeria Kamikaze from Etgar Keret and Asaf Hanuka

Press Release

Review: Bumstorm: A Snake Amongst The Wind Farm

By Oliver Gerlach

The vast majority of the indie comics I end up reviewing seem to be serious high concept low sci-fi adventures about serious white men. That honestly gets a bit dull after a while, so sometimes a palate cleanser is in order. Bumstorm #3: A Snake Amongst the Wind Farm certainly cleanses the palate. It’s not grim, it’s not serious, it’s not clever or even slightly pretentious; it’s just stupid as hell and out to have a good time.

Review: Clue #4

By Ashley Gibbs

We’ve reached issue four of the series and with only two remaining, things should be picking up to get readers pumped, except Clue #4 had the opposite effect on me. This issue didn’t move things along very much, and anything exciting that did happen was quickly brushed over. Two major characters seemingly die and it’s wrapped up in maybe two panels, though given how incompetent everyone in the story is, I’m not even sure if they killed each other properly. I went into this series with rose-colored nostalgia glasses, but the memory is fading, into gray disappointment.
