Reborn takes the question of what happens after we die and turns it into a fantasy adventure full of monster killing and the promise of a better future. The artwork is top notch, and the pace is largely optimal for the story being told. This is also a complete story, beginning to end, so this volume will not leave you waiting to see what happens which is a nice plus. There are a few convenience issues, but we will get to that.

This story is supposedly about people who keep zombies, ghost storms, and vampires at bay, but so far I’m not feeling it. I thought the premise had a lot of potential, but the pace is dragging, and I can’t say I’m all that attached to anyone. The characters are nothing special, the art is lackluster for me overall, and I wish there were more action and less “suspense.”

035 - Welcome to this week's show. It's just a regular review week for me, a little bit of the new, a little bit of the continuing... ongoing... whatever. I'll leave the list below, but it's 13 minutes of your life, feel free to be surprised!

Comic Books covered on this episode:

• Justice League: No Justice #1

• Sideways #4

• The Immortal Men #2

• Relay #1

• RoboCop: Citizen's Arrest #2

• Savage Takes: Vampirella #1

By Dustin Cabeal

​​​​​​​Sideways continues to be an interesting experiment from DC Comics. There are definitely chunks of the story that feel missing or changed at the drop of a hat. While it doesn’t bother me as a reader, I can see the fickle superhero reader being far less forgiving. Mostly, because Sideways breaks a lot of the superhero norms at the moment.

After everything that has been going on the last few issues, it’s time to get a new plot rolling. This one is called ‘All Hail the Dark Gods’ and it gives a pretty good idea of what Wonder Woman will be facing off against in the very near future.

By Hunter T. Patrick

Flash War has not even started yet, and because of this issue my current favorite Flash arc of this run (Button fallowed by Running Scared) might soon be getting replaced. This issue made me giddier than most all the issues of The Flash thus far. It felt like getting a wish list for everything wanted in a story and seeing it all come true and working as well as it does. Joshua Williamson’s Flash has always seemed to be a somewhat average comic with such greatness ready to spring out, and now it has and makes me eager for what is coming next.

By Dustin Cabeal

This is more along the lines of what I expected in the first issue. That is to say that it’s more along the lines of every other RoboCop comic from BOOM! that I’ve read. Much of this comic is inconsequential to the plot and offers no character development.

By Cat Wyatt

Issue three of Prism Stalker brings us back to the psychedelic worlds that we’ve come to know and love in just a few short issues. This issue continues the saga of the new world that Vep is supposed to be helping to colonize, at least, that’s assuming she passes all of her training.

By Kelly Gaines

Good news everyone! Sloan is alive and well, possibly homeless, and asking the police to turn a blind eye to the rogue superwoman that blew up his home. His wife and kids are fine too- if anyone was wondering. On to important matters. Eternity Girl #3 continues Caroline’s graceful slide into what I assume is complete insanity. How else do you justify the desire to end all existence forever? There’s something eerie about a determined and motivational dialogue geared towards the ultimate mass murder. It’s the same passion and righteousness read in the lines of the Justice League, and somehow, it makes you root for Caroline. Sympathy for the devil? Maybe not. But it’s sympathy for a unique kind of darkness, one that is equally inviting and terrifying.

I cannot believe it; somebody brought back Fraggle Rock. I wasn’t an 80’s kid who grew up watching it, but I was a 90’s kid who watched a lot of TV and VHS tapes. Fraggle Rock was always previewed on the Muppet movie VHS tapes I used to watch growing up, and I’m still addicted to the theme. I’d seen the show and even some of the animated series, but I can’t believe a company actually made a comic of it here in 2018.
