Review: The Big Sheep: A Farm Noir
By Cat Wyatt
The Big Sheep is a farm noir, and by that I mean it’s a noir story involving anthropomorphized farm animals and a mystery (because it wouldn’t be a noir without a little mystery, now would it?). Our main character, Slow Spade, is unsurprisingly a turtle; he’s also a private investigator though the times have been a little been a little rough on him lately.

Review: Fire Punch vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
I judged Fire Punch by its cover… and the name. Even as a reviewer, as someone that’s constantly surprised by the things he reads, I still judge books by their cover. The thing I have going for me is that I don’t stop there, and still give it a shot. Sometimes I’m right; sometimes I’m wrong. I always want to be wrong, and I’m glad to say that in the case of Fire Punch, I was very wrong.
Review: Food Wars! vol. 20
By Dustin Cabeal
While the return of Erina’s father has provided some great moments, the overall story seems to be lacking a real overall cohesiveness. There have been plenty of loopholes for Soma and his gang to skid by, be it Erina’s father letting her stay at Polar Star or Soma’s challenges. It hasn’t been all bad, but there have been some languid moments.
Review: RWBY vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
RWBY is a straightforward concept. The title of the books is not only a combination of the main character’s names but also the colors that they wear. Did I mention it’s straightforward? Starting off as something from Rooster Teeth, RWBY has been one of, if not the only crossover hit to come from American and navigate its way into Japanese manga. The manga is made by Shirow Miwa and is adapted to the manga style both in its characters and the world.
Review: Zen Pencils - Creative Struggle
By Dustin Cabeal
There is no better way to describe Creative Struggle than to use the tagline. If I did that though, this would be an incredibly short review. Creative Struggle is a book of illustrations that take quotes, biographies, interviews and anything else that a famous creative person may have said and put them together.
Review: Reset (2017)
By Dustin Cabeal
Reset isn’t quite a time travel movie, and it isn’t quite a parallel earth movie, but it does find a way to be a little bit of both. The story follows a science team that is studying time travel. Unfortunately, for them, the American’s are interested in their research after failing on their own and ending up with a ton of people going crazy and dying.
Review: Terraformars - Season 1
By Erika Suarez
In Terra Formars, our creepy crawling friends that hide in our kitchen cabinets have turned into man-killing humanoids with killer abs and unsettles you in horrifying action when an international space team is sent to Terraform Mars and fight against them. The bloodbath battle brings all of this together in Blu-ray with uncut and uncensored agony.
Review: Asylum vol. 1: New Born
By Cat Wyatt
What immediately drew my attention to Asylum was the stunning cover. Have you ever taken a moment to browse through art history covers? I have, and this one immediately reminded me of a painting in the Romanticism Art Movement. Which is something I’ve never really seen applied to a graphic novel cover before. It’s hard to pass something so unique up, to say the least.
Review: Any One Of Us #2
By Thea Srinivasan
Adrestia has come back into the picture with even more action and an extra dose of humanity ironically enough. But I cannot go any further with this review without a warning. For anyone who has not read the first comic, please do not read this review. This is your only spoiler warning for this review. Turn back now if you DON’T want spoilers. Also, this particular issue will contain very triggering, graphic content in terms of murder, rape, and PTSD. For these reasons, I highly do not recommend this particular comic for anyone who cannot handle such macabre content
