Review: The Showdown vol. 2
By Dustin Cabeal
The Showdown is a story I want to like more than I do. The premise of Death Race plus Hell is intriguing. The fact that it’s populated with so many rockabilly/villainous horror creatures makes it more interesting, but there is an element missing that keeps it from getting me to the finish line. Pun intended.
Review: Stern vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
I’m not a huge fan of era stories that in a way add modern genres to the twist. For instance a western that adds forensic science to the story. There’s a little of that in the first volume of Stern, but thankfully it ends up making a lot of sense to the story.
Review: Battlecats #5
By Dustin Cabeal
What has made Battlecats standout and be a rich story to read is the backstory. At first, it might have seemed daunting to read, but it was a smart way to introduce the different elements of the story that are now all coming into play.
Review: Cobber #4
By Dustin Cabeal
My qualms with the first three issues of Cobber still stand in this fourth issue of the five-issue series. It’s a story that’s been told before which isn’t the issue. Every story can be boiled down to being the same story or type of story told over and over. What sets stories aside is their characters, presentation, and entertainment level, to name a few things.
