Little Nemo: Return to Slumberland #1 review Many people know the Little Nemo name, or at least I think they do. The boy who famously traverses slumberland and dream worlds with his trusty bed. But when I saw Little Nemo: Return to Slumberland #1 from IDW on the shelves of Cosmic Comics!, I immediately asked myself "who this books audience actually is?" To understand the … [Read more...]
Terminal Hero #1. Not a Hero.
Terminal Hero #1 review Dynamite may have a dark hero on their hands with Terminal Hero #1, that's if you want to call it a hero at all. I'm pretty sure you get what the terminal means in Terminal Hero, unless you're thinking like airport terminal, then you're wrong. Brain tumors suck, I'd say they're the worst, unless you're Sterling Archer then an actual brain aneurysm or … [Read more...]
Low #1. Pure Science Fiction Theater.
Low #1 review Rick Remender takes you to new depths and beyond the twenty thousands leagues in Low #1, his newest Image Comics title. Low #1 is yet again another post apocalyptic comic book, and I know this seems like a beat down piece of subject matter, but I can assure you Remender's take on this genre is a breath fresh sea air. The sun has grown and made living on the … [Read more...]
Zombie Tramp #1. It’s Exactly What You Think.
Zombie Tramp #1 review Alright you delinquents, it's about time I got to review some quality books around here and Zombie Tramp #1 fell right into my lap. If this book could give me a lap dance and then eat my face off, it totally would. Zombie Tramp is unlike any zombie you've ever seen. The mindless hunger junkies from those "other" books are clown shoes compared to this … [Read more...]
The Squidder #1 A Different Apocalypse.
The Squidder #1 review Alright you apocalypse loving ghouls, The Squidder #1 is here to take your precious zombie or Mad Max apocalypse and throw it in the trash. This is a world ruled by a demonic...squid...thing. Ok, so I'll work on how to describe that later, and I'm sure The Squidder will do so in later books also. So we'll take this guy, they, you know the existential … [Read more...]
Winter World #1. Not a Winter Wonderland.
Winter World #1 review Doing the review for Winter World #1 was one of the easier comic book pieces I've had to write recently, mainly because the premise is like so many other post apocalyptic tales of despair. Winter World #1 follows Scully and his teenage sidekick Wynn as they try to survive the frozen desolate wasteland that Earth has become. But you could have read … [Read more...]
Outcast #1. The Power of Kirkman Compels you.
Outcast #1 review Robert Kirkman escapes the zombie scene and tackles a much more curious and unseen presence. How can I describe Outcast #1 from Robert Kirkman and Paul Azaceta? I imagine Marty McFly would say its "heavy, doc", Jack Burton would probably ask "are you out of your mind, wang?", and Bill & Ted would just let out a resounding "whooooa". I sat right smack … [Read more...]
