Review: Her Impact! #0
By Dustin Cabeal
Her Impact! Suffers from what I call the “Manga Effect.” As you can probably already guess from that labeling, its manga inspired. In the case of Her Impact, it attempts many of the tropes while offering a story that you’d likely never read in a manga.
Review: Chronospire #1
By Dustin Cabeal
My first question with any fantasy story is, “is the fantasy element needed to tell the story?” You’d be surprised how often the answer to this question is a resounding, “No.” That is the case with Chronospire, which is a world full of elves and ogres, but a story that requires neither element to function.
Review: Pussycats – Foxglove #1
By Oliver Gerlach
Pussycats – Foxglove #1 is the first issue of a planned 2 issue miniseries. It is, as far as I can tell, a part of e-comix’s Pussycats series, which appear to be cheap titillation with what might be the most unappealing covers around. Using a photo of a “sexy model” for your covers feels like a spectacularly regressive approach to comics marketing. So, is the interior of Foxglove #1 any better than you might expect from this?

Growing up as a fan of the character Cyclops I would always get excited when he would have a solo series or something outside of the core X-Men titles. Cyclops outside of an ensemble cast, means more Cyclops right? Rarely does that prove to be true, real ones already know. This newest solo series introduces some interesting back story, some interesting retro lore only to rely on old characters presented with muddled art. At the end of this comic, it’s less a Cyclops story and more of a reinventing of an old villain.
