Inspired By A Real-Life Battle Against Washington Lobbyists, Black Masks Studios Publishes YOUNG TERRORISTS, The Incendiary First Ever Collaboration from the Co-Creators of CALEXIT

Press Release

This May, Black Mask Studios will publish in book form for the first time ever YOUNG TERRORISTS, the first, incendiary collaboration by the co-creators of the CALEXIT comic book series. Three years ago, writer Matteo Pizzolo and artist Amancay Nahuelpan began a comic book series that portrayed a dark world of speculative fiction: a strange near-future where celebrities and CEOs run the U.S. government, internet conspiracy theorists provide counsel to political elites, and populist anger rages on all sides. The series was inspired by Pizzolo’s own battle with K-Street Lobbyists ten years ago.

Review: Avengers: Infinity War

By Hunter T. Patrick

This review For Avengers: Infinity War contains minimal spoilers if you do not want to find out that Batman saves the day at the end of this movie then read another review or see the movie.

Ten years in the making indeed. The 19th installment in the Marvel Cinematic Universe has finally been released. No one would have ever thought the first Avengers movie would ever be made, or even succeed. Avengers brings together six superheroes, four with their own franchise, all for an epic movie. Infinity War’s marketing campaign mentions how there are 23 heroes in this movie. Is that a little too much? Some will say yes. Luckily the movie manages them all with ease (but do not expect all of them to play an equal role).

Review: Heavy Vinyl

Heavy Vinyl takes girl power, sets it in the 90's and makes a record store into a kind of vigilante headquarters. While it is not incredible at presenting a complete story by the end of the collected four issues, it excels at being cute and having a diverse cast. The diversity in the almost all girl cast pretty much just means a handful of girls with their own personalities and individual lifestyles. It is fun, but it won’t work your brain or make you believe the story can stand on its own at this point.

Review: Justice League of America #29

By Jonathan Edwards

As singer and songwriter Adele once wrote and sang, “this is the end.” In this case, it’s the end of a long, at times bleak, trek of a comic titled Justice League of America. I remember being really excited when first hearing about the book, its interesting cast of characters, and all of the possibilities that came with them. And, the first four Rebirth one-shots, focusing on The Atom, Vixen, The Ray, and Killer Frost, respectively, were all promising prequel tie-ins that each built up more and more hype for the main book. Then, Justice League of America: Rebirth #1 came out, and it was different. Everything suddenly felt less thought-out and put together and more superficial and contrived. However, this wasn’t an isolated incident. Justice League of America issues #1 through #4 followed the trend with a weak and irritating first story arc, and things only went further downhill as the series continued. Slightly over a year later and here we are with Justice League of America #29. And, long story short, the conclusion to “Dawn of Time” sucks, but the series finale afterward is marginally better.
