Worst Movies of 2017

By Dustin Cabeal

Welcome to my end of the year movie list. Later today you'll get the Anime, and Comic list so stay tuned for that. In the meantime, this is the worst of list for movies. By no means did I see every bad movie and I could have filled this is a lot of obvious choices, but I stuck to a lot of nerdom or personally offensive "movies." You can find the Best Movies of 2017 list by click here.

Review: Big Trouble in Little China: Old Man Jack #1

By Dustin Cabeal

Recently I treated myself to the Blu-Ray of Big Trouble in Little China. What a great fucking movie. I almost want to end the review here and just put a score for this book, but I’ll continue.

Comic Heroes Across Multiple Industries

In recent years, you've probably either seen at least a few of the AAA summer blockbuster superhero films, or know someone who has. Indeed, even very casual fans of the genre or those not generally interested by superheroes have found something to like about many of the most popular superheroes, such as the Guardians of the Galaxy team.

Review: Kingsman: The Red Diamond #1

By Dustin Cabeal

I’ve never been a fan of Kingsman aka Secret Service, but with this being a new series and rebranded to be more in line with the movies, well I figured I’d give it a shot. It’s not shocking, but interesting that Mark Millar rebranded the comic to match the movie. Kingsman is a much better title after all. Still, it’s just weird to see a movie affect a comic these days.

Review: Clueless: Senior Year

By Dustin Cabeal

I’ll save you from the boring “I love Clueless” to speech and just jump right into the question I asked myself the entire time I read the new graphic novel from BOOM! Box/BOOM! Studios…

“Who is this for?”

After reading the entire thing, I can confidently say… I'm clueless, and I wish that were an intended pun, but it’s just the truth.

They Finally Put All The Monkey Franchises Together... Yay?

By Dustin Cabeal

It's rare I comment on a press release anymore mostly because no one ever agrees with me and I don't particularly care that much anymore. I let my reviews do the talking, but this gets an exception. Not only do I actively dislike both franchises, but I've never had a morsel of a desire to see them paired together. I'm sure the complicated class commentary of Apes will work with the giant fighting monster commentary that Kong has become. Fucking yay. Side note, I haven't been excited about any of BOOM!'s recent announcements. I'm going to just search for those diamonds in the rough that they produce like Godshaper and the franchise licensed crap.
