Review: Skybourne #5

By Dustin Cabeal

The problem with reviewing Skybourne is that for some people they’re going to take it as me reviewing Frank Cho himself. Which is unfortunate because I just want to make jokes about how this comic was never that good, to begin with, and that if you were waiting for this issue, you’re probably surprised that it arrived in 2018 instead of 2020.

Review: Skybourne #3 (of 5)

By Dustin Cabeal

I’m sure there are people out there not even giving this book a chance because it’s Frank Cho and blah, blah, comic drama, blah, blah variant covers, blah, blah spider butt. If I completely disagreed with his stance I probably wouldn’t review this series at all, but I have a lengthy opinion on the state of comic fandom, and it’s not going to fit in this review. My point for bringing all this up is that if you thought Frank Cho was just going to be illustrating boobs and butts in this comic, you are most definitely wrong.

Review: Skyborne #2

By Mike Badilla

Did you hear the one about the Catholic priest and the immortal guy? Me either. Could have gone without ever hearing about them. Issue 2 of Skyborne begins with a Catholic priest climbing the steps to what looks like some kind of Tibetan temple. Some monks answer the door, and the priest asks if they received the case of Merlot he sent. This sounds like the setup to a lame joke. The monks let him in, and he asks where 'he' is, and they point to a man carrying a huge boulder. The priest approaches him and they exchange harsh words, all the while the young man is breaking this boulder apart by punching it, which is pretty cool. Just when it seems the two will start fighting, they burst into laughter. They are old friends from long ago. The young man (Thomas) explains that they are repairing the wall as it was damaged in a storm not long ago. The priest then tells Thomas why he's there.
