Review: UnPresidential
By Dustin Cabeal
Simply put, Unpresidential is about Kim Jong Un running for President of the United States after Donald Trump disappears one day. I’m telling you clear as day what Unpresidential is about so that you understand instantly that the book is satire, ridiculous and exactly what everyone that’s been screaming at the world of politics for the last year needs.
Review: Crow Jane #0 & 1
By Patrick Wolf
Tired of Wyatt Earp, Doc Holliday, and Billy the Kid? Looking for a Western hero whose more than just quick to the draw? Crow Jane is a new Western series that’s more than just the traditional take on the Western drama. With supernatural elements interspersed throughout the narrative, Crow Jane makes for an exciting read with plenty of guts and gore to spare. This is certainly a series that will appeal to the Western aficionado looking for something different.
Review: Knights of the Golden Sun #1
By Oliver Gerlach
Knights of the Golden Sun #1 is a biblical epic that goes far beyond any biblical epic I’ve read before. It’s really quite something, in the most delightfully over-the-top way possible. Mark London and Mauricio Villareal have created a truly ridiculous and beautiful book here, filled with levels of melodrama that make even the most dramatic anime look bland. It’s not what I was expecting.
Review: Eternity #1
By Patrick Wolf
I actually read this issue a few days ago but didn’t get around to reviewing it until now. Unfortunately, the moment I put my pen to the paper and tried to write about this comic, I realized I couldn’t remember a single event that happened. The story was so mediocre, bland, and uninspiring that it actually completely erased itself from my memory within just a few short days. I think this pretty much sums up what I think of Eternity #1: Epic cover, epic writer, epic fail.
Review: Hack/Slash – Vampirella #1
By Dustin Cabeal
Crossover comics are not my thing. Rarely, if ever do, they prevent something relevant for either franchise and typically just ends up being two heroes fighting each other. Trying to figure out who the bad guy is, ultimately teaming up and easily defeating the villain, while everyone gets their shit in. It’s the equivalent of an after Pay-per-view Wrestling event in which new storylines are being developed, and jackasses are just running into the ring. Oh, they’re gonna fight each other next… why am I watching this then?
Review: Warframe #1
By Ben Snyder
Matt Hawkins and Ryan Cady give a semi-interesting premise of an ancient Tenno gone off the grid who awakens to protect a small town from the botched human clone species called the Grineer. If you are not a fan of the seemingly convoluted and lore-rich game Warframe, then, Warframe #1 is definitely not for you as the first issue will leave you in a state of utter confusion. However, fans of the universe might get an enjoyable if not inventive or creative story set in the apocalyptic sci-fi universe.
Review: The Shadow/Batman #1
By Justin McCarty
Here is the newest Shadow Batman team up. It promises to give us the best of Batman and The Shadow as they have to deal with a decades-old conspiracy. There has been a steady run of Batman Shadow books lately, and that's for a good reason, they feed into each other. The Shadow inspired Batman, and it’s clear as Batman became popular, the mythos fed back into The Shadow stories. As long as we keep making great Batman Shadow comics, the loop will continue.
Review: Batman: White Knight #1
Group Review

For those unfamiliar with the site’s group review format, each of the participating writers will give their thoughts and an individual score for the issue. We don’t do averages; each person’s thoughts and score are their own. Now get your butt ready for DC and Sean Phillips’ Batman: White Knight #1.
Review: Harley & Ivy Meet Betty & Veronica #1
By Dustin Cabeal
The most surprising thing about Harley & Ivy Meet Betty & Veronica is that it’s a six-issue series. I will admit that I was excited about this crossover at first, mostly because Paul Dini was writing it. If anyone were going to write this and make it good, you’d think it would be Dini. Unfortunately, it’s an incredibly boring issue and I can’t imagine reading five more of them.
Review: Eugenic #1
By Justin McCarty
Tynion and Donovan are together again on Eugenic. This will conclude his apocalyptic trilogy that started with Memetic. Eugenic imagines a future where prejudice is bred out, and a new kind of human race comes to exist. It’s a high-concept sci-fi horror. Tynion has come up with a very eerie version of the future that almost feels like it could happen. There’s also going to be crazy science and monsters. Eugenic will explore why do people need to feel that they are normal, that their children are normal. Eugenic, like the other stories in the apocalyptic trilogy, will be a three issue mini-series with each issue being about 40 pages long.
Review: Slots #1
By Daniel Vlasaty
I've spent a decent amount of time in Las Vegas. My sister used to live there, and I would visit often. But it was never the gambling that I was interested in there. It was the drinking and the drugs. Vegas is the kind of city you go to with the intention of making bad decisions. Maybe it's different if you're local. But if you're from out-of-town Vegas can be blinding. It's the lights and the energy and the fact everything – and I mean everything – is right there within reach. I've always liked books and movies and whatever set in Vegas. Because the city has its own attitude and it's built into all of the characters, too. Dan Panosian's Slots is a book about the Las Vegas that maybe not a lot of people see. It's the kind of story that takes place off the Strip. It's a gritty story, and I'm hoping that we're all going to get a little dirty before it's over.

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.
