Review: DC House of Horror #1

By Dustin Cabeal

For ten bucks you get 80 pages of horror set in the DC Universe. I’ll start by telling you the good thing about this comic. If you like EC Comics style of stories, then you’ll probably love the hell out of DC House of Horror #1. Unfortunately, the other half that has refined their tastes in horror from digesting a massive amount of horror over the years may end up being a little bored by this issue.

Review: Nightwing: The New Order #3

By Dustin Cabeal

After recording this week’s episode, I thought about this issue more, and I realized that there was one big thing I left out of my podcast and it’s the main reason this issue isn’t as strong as the previous two. It’s actually right there on the cover, the Bat-Family. Batwoman and Red Robin are injected into this issue and that’s actually the problem.

Review: Brilliant Trash 1 & 2

By Justin McCarty

What do you get when you do a mashup of sci-fi social commentary and superheroes? That would be Brilliant Trash. Here we have a superhero story that leans heavily on the trashy, pandering media culture, and the SJW narrative of the last couple years, all wrapped up in a tight superpowered bow. The final product isn’t perfect, and the themes are a little heavy-handed, but that doesn't take away from the truly unique presentation and use of the comics medium.

Review: The Hard Place #3

By Daniel Vlasaty

Getting back to normal life after an extended prison sentence is hard. It's really fucking hard, which is probably why something like 75% of people re-offend and end up back inside. It's a never-ending cycle for some people. I know. I've been on both sides of the law and now I work every day with people recently released from prison – in my job, though, it's mostly people locked up for drug charges, but I've had a few bank robbers come through my place. I actually see a lot of some of the people I work with in AJ Gurney – people trying their hardest to do the right thing, but no matter what they just keep fucking up over and over again. Like they can't help themselves. It's sad and scary and fucked up, but it's also part of living that criminal lifestyle. I don’t know. Whatever. Here's my review of The Hard Place #3.

Preview: THE CONSULTANT: If Superman wanted off of death row, he wouldn’t call Matt Murdock; he’d call The Consultant

Press Release

There's no denying the good that Superman, Wonder Woman, Spider-Man, and Captain America do. If I lived in Gotham, Metropolis, or 616 New York I would be more than grateful for the countless times they've saved the world. But gratitude doesn't equal trust. We've all come to realize that people in power, people that we "look up to", do some pretty twisted things. Politicians. Celebrities. Movie Producers.
