SUPERPUNK- Advanced Review
Superpunk isn’t interested in boring things like origin stories, though. It dispatches with this background nearly as quickly as I have here, using Alan’s podcast as an in-world device to get readers immediately up to speed before launching into a fight between Violeta and a tornado-earthquake-flood-sinkhole-monster wreaking order in the city: folding laundry, sorting parked cars by color, and replacing peoples’ clothes with gender-normative outfits from the “good old days.

Exclusive Review: Westside Volume 1
Westside: Volume 1 is a perfect bound comic book containing the first two chapters of this moody small-town crime drama featuring two deputy sheriffs investigating a series of violent crimes in California’s Central Valley. Westside injects real-world facts and authentic autobiographical elements to expose a broken part of America.

Nerd Inferno: The Essential Evan Dorkin- REVIEW
One of the great joys of a collection like this is watching Dorkin’s style develop and mutate in complexity, as he accumulates years of experience across minutes of reading time, like a timelapse video of radioactive, crystalline, fractal mold growing on an old, discarded issue of TV Guide.

Speed Racer Adventures Vol 1 - Advanced Review
Everytime I read/review a series from Papercutz, I am more and more impressed. The team at Papercutz ensures that a quality and entertaining story is presented within the pages. I'm a big fan of the character and world of Speed Racer. Its a character I've connected with since I was a child, mainly because its one that I was introduced to by my father and uncle. Little did I know that it was an anime, to me it was just a cartoon.

Speed Racer: Tales from the Road – High-Speed Noon- Comic Review
Writer Ariel Rankhlin’s Snake Oiler contains multitudes. He can be cocky and over-confident, especially on the heels of his recent defeat by Speed Racer, but only towards other racers. To anyone else though, he’s thoughtful, kind, even a little vulnerable.

Transformers #31 - Comic Review
Ludo Lullabi’s return to art duties is a welcome one as this issue keeps the dialogue decidedly light compared to past issues and gives Ludo and colorist Mike Spicer space to really show off their combined talents in page after page of stunning action sequences. This issue isn’t just one big fight scene though,

The Complete 2000AD by Alan Moore
In many ways a review of this book is probably superfluous beyond just confirming that it is indeed what it claims to be, which is a prodigious collection of Alan Moore’s early 2000AD shortform comics, a relatively obscure, but clearly formative period of his immortal oeuvre.
As such, I am delighted to verify that this titanic tome does exactly what it says on the tin!

DEATH TO PACHUCO TP - COMIC REVIEW
The story is easy to follow. Henry's passion for history come through the pages. Its the type of story that would probably only get 1-2 paragraphs in a text book but seeing everything playout across these 5 issues really put you in the world of the time

The Shadower - Advanced Review
A tense and thrilling exploration of identity, espionage, and vendetta. As Oscar Wilde observed, "the reality of metaphysics is the reality of masks," and in the world of The Shadower, where actors disappear entirely into their roles, it’s tough to discern masks from realities!

Bejamin HC-Advanced Review
WHAT IS IT?
This 104 page hardcover collects all three-issues of the Benjamin series released by Oni Press last year. It tells the story of a famous science fiction writer who wakes up in a hotel room with no idea how he got there. His name is Benjamin J. Carp, and he quickly realizes that decades have passed since his last memory. Worse, the last thing he remembers was his own death.

IS TED OK? - A Comic Review
Over the last few years Chisholm has produced some astonishing work. His Miles Davis and Charlie Parker biographies are gorgeous, and recently he provided cool and trippy visuals for Rick Quinn's Spectrum. Is Ted OK? shows every sign of being another triumph.

Penny and the Yeti, Vol 1 - Advanced Review
Penny's parents are like many of today's parents. One person works taking care of the family and one works at an office. Both struggle to see what stresses the other and possibly dimisses those stressors as they can't see what the other is going through. Not only that, the obsesssion that many of us have with our phones causes a rift between the parents. We could all take from this story and realize that we have to be present for those within our household more and leave the

Vincent Van Gogh: Sadness Will Last Forever - Review
The art is phenomenal throughout, and wonderfully contrasts with Van Gogh’s own art style, where his aesthetic is bright and soft, Sakka is dark and sharp, with occasional dissolving reprieves, where his interior life matches his artistic vision. Especially impressive are Sakka’s recreations of some of Van Gogh’s most famous works, re-contextualizing them within the world of the book, imbibing them with a delicate melancholy that suggests the difference between how Van Gogh s

Universal Monsters: The Phantom of the Opera #1 — Advanced Review
From the moment you open the issue, Universal Monsters: The Phantom of the Opera #1 makes one thing immediately clear: this is not a comic interested in familiar rhythms. It asks to be read slowly, to be revisited, to be experienced through composition and page turns as much as plot. It is deliberate, formally ambitious, and closer in spirit to a curated gallery exhibition than a conventional monthly

Black Mirror: the graphic novel(s) - USS Callister & San Junipero- Advanced Review
It acts as an homage to nostalgia for Star Trek the original series while also telling a much darker story. That a programmer who traps his coworkers’ consciousness in a procedurally generated game scenario based on the that show. In the shadow of that retro-futurism hides elements of The Matrix mixed with Ready Player One and that episode of The Twilight Zone with that terrible little god-kid.

The Thing on the Doorstep #1 (of 5)-Comic Review
The Thing on the Doorstep starts with a murder, as seen on the preview pages above. A gruesome murder, that I was surprised how it happened without warning. The story starts in 1933 with Daniel Upton shooting his "friend" (in quotes because, why would he shoot a friend) Edward Derby but then the story goes back 35 years to their first meeting and goes thru various points in their lives.
