Review: Assassinistas #2

By Kelly Gaines

Assassinistas #2 turns bringing your child to work on its head in a well-paced and hilarious way. For anyone who missed issue one, #2 starts out with a brief recap, laying the groundwork for the bizarre spy adventure ahead. The premise is simply stated, but nonetheless unique. A college guy and his boyfriend (Dominic and Taylor)  tag along with his ex-bounty hunter mother (Octavia) to solve the kidnapping of a little boy. The catch? The little boy is the son of one of her former teammates- one currently too pregnant to take the case herself. The other catch? The case may bring the former “Assassinistas” a little closer to home than they expected.

Review: The Skeptics #1

By Dustin Cabeal

I was going to open with a Cold War Kids song, but I don’t know any of their songs. Probably something melodramatic about how hard it is to be rich and famous and making music, but then the trade off to that is constant touring, so you’re not forgotten by the audience. Something like that.
