Review: Fire Punch vol. 3
By Dustin Cabeal
Fire Punch has been a bit of a rollercoaster. I know that’s cliché as fuck, but that is the best way to describe the giant ups and downs of the series. The first volume was amazing in what it set up and how it was executed. A character with regenerative powers being lit on fire by a man whose flames will only extinguish with death.
Review: One-Punch Man vol. 14
By Dustin Cabeal
One-Punch Man is a rare title. There will never be anything else like it because it is the perfect meeting of writing and art. While most people continue to be more familiar with the anime than the manga and really just falling in love with the gimmick and comedy, there is so much more going on in this series. To some, this will sound utterly crazy, but One-Punch Man is a brilliant representation of life.
Review: Tokyo Ghoul: re vol. 5
By Dustin Cabeal
I’ve been a big fan of Tokyo Ghoul and re-added some interesting elements and has taken a lot of chances. Moreover, Sui Ishida grew and changed as a creator which is an incredibly rare thing in manga. That doesn’t mean it’s all worked out, but it’s made Tokyo Ghoul one of the more interesting franchises to follow.
Review: Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba vol. 1
By Dustin Cabeal
Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba is a standard monster hunter story. There is one and only one element of the story that stayed with me, and it’s likely that it wasn’t supposed to resonate with me the way it did. Demon Slayer is also a weird title considering it’s a vampire story. They just call them demons, but they’re sucking blood and stay away from the sun so… vampires.
Review: Mother Panic Gotham A.D. #5
By Kelly Gaines
The brooding, alcoholic, White Witch of Gotham has finally come to terms with what she really is- a superhero. Mother Panic #5 marks a moment of genuine change and borderline gentleness for Gotham's second most angsty vigilante. Violet may not be happy in this strange new reality, but that doesn't make fighting the good fight any less important; especially now that she knows there is no way home.
Review: Mera: Queen of Atlantis #6
By Kelly Gaines
Allow me to start by saying I made a mistake in my last review of Mera: Queen of Atlantis, and I could not be more relieved. Orm is not marrying his own sister; he's just forcing her to marry Nereus against her will. We can all rest much easier now. Mera's claim on the throne has all come down to this- the final installment of the Mera mini-series. Mera has been a satisfying read, and #6 gives us a trial by combat that would make a Lannister proud and closes out Mera's chapter with a triumphant bang.
Review: Redneck #13
By Hunter T. Patrick
New Start. Redneck seems to take drastic turns in between each arc, or so it has between the first and second, and now the second and the third. The very appropriate title, Redneck, about, well, redneck vampires continues with some dramatic turns. Perry is in trouble after the events of the last issue, so we see some vampire reunions after being separated, from the original family to a brand-new introduction of another family being introduced. The issue serves as set up, beginning with a flashback between a past love of Bartlett’s to a cliffhanger no one saw coming, well sarcastically. This issue does not serve as being strong for twists, but for being strong for set up to start Redneck's third arc.
Review: Bone Parish #1
By Damien Becton
Cullen Bunn is another one of those long-tenured, swiss army knife comic book writers who has had extensive runs with just about all of the big name comic book companies. This is for good reason - Bunn is one of the most consistent and reliable writers in the industry. When a Cullen Bunn book comes out, you can bet that you’re going to get an entertaining story. With Bone Parish #1, these statements still hold true. This is an incredibly engaging kick-off to the story and I cannot wait for more.
Review: Justice League Dark #1
By Hunter T. Patrick
A dark, beautiful, way too verbose introduction. James Tynion IV, just coming out of his nearly 50 issue Detective Comics run returns, spinning out of No Justice, which he co-wrote with Snyder and Williamson. Justice League Dark directly spins out of No Justice, with magic failing. Wonder Woman is given a task by the League to create a magic based Justice League. She begins the task, and the issue revolves around the five members of the team, either present or future. Wonder Woman, Zatanna, Swamp Thing, Man-Bat, and Detective Chimp all have their own struggles and their team up is only beginning in this first issue. If fans are looking for a more magical, more horror-based Justice League team, they are in luck.
Review: Twin Star Exorcists vol. 12
By Dustin Cabeal
There is an unfortunate element of shonen manga that involves the good guys all fighting each other at some point. It’s always a harmless battle, and usually, there’s some magical protection or other dimension excuse so that the character can’t fight without consequences. While this is all well and fun and usually full of backstories and motivation reveals, it also feels lazy. Good guys shouldn’t fight good guys, and yet it’s something that plagues manga, American comics and anything involving fantasy stories with powers. Apparently, the people fighting for our safety can only do so after a pissing competition.
