Before I jump into why you would want to read Legenderry: A Steampunk Adventure, let me just state that this book is very, very steampunk. Very steampunk, almost Legen...wait for it...Derry. httpvh://youtu.be/8Ijk3nepXmM You had to know that was coming. Ok, back to the review at hand, I don't like steampunk. I actually think it's pretty dumb, and I'm a nerd. I like toys, … [Read more...]
Nerd Girl Fan Theory: Attack On Titan
I am not a fan of the Hype-Train. In fact, I do everything in my power to avoid it. When they Hype-Train's course comes near my personal space, I loudly call out "ALL ABOARD THE NOPE TRAIN TO SCREWTHATVILLE!!". So, in secret, I began a plot to reap the benefits of an obviously great manga series without the awful side-effects of the "instantly, hugely popular with everyone" … [Read more...]
Hulk get’s smashed in Marvel Knights HULK.
The newest Marvel Knights series have been very enjoyable. X-Men went into the dirty south and found much more than what they were looking for, and Spider-Man ended up being one of favorite comics of the year, not that I had higher expectations of MK Hulk, but the pressure was definitely on for it to perform. Joe Keatinge of Hell Yeah joins Piotr Kowalski for this four part … [Read more...]

Marvel Knights X-Men and the US Luge team on Valiant’s Unity. This weeks reviews.
First off we've got another Marvel Knights for you. Marvel Knights X-Men if the title of the post didn't spoil that one for you. MK X-Men distances itself from the larger portion of the Marvel universe, but still maintains the "searching for new mutants" story arc. Wolverine, Kitty, and Rogue are perfect for this book, especially since it takes place in a racist swampy area … [Read more...]
Larime Taylor Fascinates with A Voice in the Dark Issue1
Disable writer, artist and A Voice in the Dark Issue 1 creator Larime Taylor does some very nice work. Psychological thrillers are definitely a thing I love. I love wondering if what I think is happening is actually part of reality, or just in the imagination. Larime Taylor poses an age old question: Are you born that way, or were you made that way? And, more importantly: … [Read more...]
Swashbuckling Nightcrawler in Amazing X-Men!
I'm not spoiling anything for you here, Nightcrawler is still dead, and by the wraparound cover you can see he's clearly swashbuckling. Amazing X-Men has its first five part series starring everyone's favorite blue teleporting demon guy, Nightcrawler. I know he's been my favorite blue teleporting demon guy since the X-Men Arcade game. How could you not want to use a … [Read more...]
