Review – Transformers Lost Light #16

For the third issue in a row we’ve only had to wait two weeks for the next installment, which on the one hand is awesome because we’ve had a ton of dangling plot lines and they’re getting (sort of) resolved lightning fast. But on the other hand I am not going to be a pleasant

Review – I Hate Fairyland #17

When I Hate Fairyland #1 came out in 2015 I thought “Ha ha, that’s cute, a demented psychopath stuck in a child’s body wreaks havoc in Fairyland. This should be a good mini series.” Fast forward three years and another 16 issues and it’s still cute, still psychopathic, still beautiful. Packed with violence and gore

The 2018 Oscar-Nominated Documentary Shorts

It’s officially a tradition: for the past three years I managed to watch all the Oscar-nominated Documentary Shorts. Mostly because, hey, short. (Come on, you can dominate a whole category in three hours!) But they’re never boring. Depressing as hell sometimes, but never boring. It’s not a comfortable three hours, but it’s always interesting.

(Spoiler-free) Review – Robert Kirkman’s Oblivion Song #1 from Image Comics

Fans of AMC’s The Walking Dead may have been a little underwhelmed by the latest season (lots of telling, not enough showing) but Robert Kirkman’s fans certainly believe it’s the fault of the interpretation, not the source material. So die-hard fans and casual viewers alike should be happy with Kirkman’s newest series due out this

Review – Jackalope Wives and Other Stories

I actually read this book right after Ursula Vernon won the Hugo for her story “The Tomato Thief” but I hadn’t had a chance to review it (“hadn’t had a chance” should be read as “didn’t get organized and stop procrastinating long enough” but I think most people assumed that was the case.) I didn’t

Review – Transformers Lost Light #14

After only a two-week wait we got another issue of Lost Light! I should be grateful! I know! But now we have to wait another month to find out what happens after THIS issue!  (See, this is what happens when you spoil us. We get greedy.) See below for a spoiler-free review of Lost Light
