Review: Misfit City #1

By Levi Remington

Misfit City tells the story of four girls stuck living in Cannon Cove, Oregon, the filming location for the infamous children's adventure movie of the 1980s, The Gloomies (a blatant homage to The Goonies). When these girls aren't fending off hoards of Gloomie-loving-tourists, they're tumbling oysters, serving coffee, running the Cannon Cove Film Museum, playing poker with their dog Pippin, or performing noise-punk in their Death Grips x Throwing Muses inspired band. Their small-town lives are uneventful, to say the least. The jury is still out on whether or not these kids actually attend school, though it hardly matters after they inherit a treasure map from the recently-deceased local pirate. Is this the impetus for a meaningful adventure, or yet another misguided attempt to capture youth culture via "randum" humor and hip references? Read ahead to find out!

Misfit City Announced - You Had Me At "The Writer of 10 Things I Hate About You"

By Dustin Cabeal

Seriously, like most people my age I like 10 Things I Hate About You. Okay, maybe not most guys since I've yet to meet another dude that didn't just watch the movie because of a woman he was dating, but I legit like the film. I don't, however, care for a movie writer working on comic books. While this gave me tingles of nostalgia for movie reasons, it's not exciting my comic buttons just yet. I'll wait until I read it, though.
