Review – Wonder Twins #1

Speaking as a twin, people sure loved to shout “WONDER TWIN POWERS ACTIVATE” in my general direction when I was growing up. In spite of that, Kathryn and I always liked the Wonder Twins: Super Friends was a pretty silly show (we knew that even in the 80s) but Jayna and Zan were cool, and

Review: Transformers – Historia (IDW Publishing)

The year was 2005. The treacherous Decepticons and their heroic Autobot counterparts descended upon the Earth and unleashed a new era of Transformers comics through IDW publishing. Thirteen years and hundreds of issues later, that universe has come to a close. Transformers historian Chris McFeely distills the entire history into one handy guide as we

Review – Polar Volume 1: Came from the Cold

I’ll admit it, I didn’t think I was going to read this one. The art looked very spiffy but the story seemed like a James Bond/Sin City/Old Man Logan-style spy adventure, and while I like all those things, I didn’t need a new one. But Dark Horse very nicely sent a review copy of the

Review – Die #2

Now that we’re solidly into 2019 I’ve started a new list: comics I should’ve been reading in 2018 and am now kicking myself for waiting so long. Some of them are practically finished already (I’m looking at you, The Magic Order) but luckily the first series on my list only started in December, so I

The Best Books of 2018

2018 was a year that produced a staggering number of excellent books. Some of them were by my usual favorite authors, and some were by authors I only recently discovered. The good news is that I always had plenty to choose from whenever I needed something new to read. The bad news is that there
