Review: The Night Parade

Kathryn Tanquary has created a beautiful story of magic, spirits, family, and growing up. It takes place in rural Japan, and each character is more bizarre and whimsical than the last. While the plot is often simplistic and random, younger readers might enjoy the adventure. I kept hoping for some kind of logic to Saki’s journey

Review: Tyson Hesse’s Diesel #4

Review – Transformers Holiday Special

If you’re looking for one of those sappy, cheesy, awkward holiday specials, this is not that book. If you’re looking for serious, gut-wrenching, intense drama…this is also not that book. The Transformers Holiday Special is ridiculously fun. It pokes fun at itself and any other holiday trope it can reach, but the writing and artwork

Tudyk and Fillion launch comic book series “Spectrum”

When Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion crowd-funded their hit web series Con Man last April, the sci-fi fan-favorite actors struck a chord: a 735%-funded campaign at $3.2M that quickly became the largest crowd-funded web series in history. Now, the record-breaking duo are lending this magic to a comic book series. Spectrum, based on the show-within-a-show

Review – Star Wars: A New Dawn

It was the Dark Times. Evil had triumphed, a light had gone out of the world, and people had lost hope. The destruction of the Jedi? No, I’m talking about how I felt right after Star Wars Episode 3, which is why I’ve never seen an episode of Star Wars Rebels. After the Prequels I pretty much
