My Rating “Full of Surprises” Jerkwater – Iowa, (then), the man, the myth, the eyepatch stands over a dead body as the family looks on in glee. It has to be a Skrull, right? Nick Fury looks puzzled by the children’s chipper attitude. How can he explain that Skrulls transform back to their natural state […]
My Rating Casiolena, totally not the Enchantress, has been booted from Asgard. Now she sulks inside her Midgard hideout, a.k.a. an abandoned mental health hospital on Roosevelt Island. Today is the day she makes her mark on the humans and their duck/humanoid accomplices. Time for some anarchy! Brooklyn, at the Wishful Inking tattoo parlor, Patsy
My Rating “The Hunter — and the Hunted!” It’s the third night of the full moon. The smog of Los Angeles is heavy this summer and it dims the full luminosity of the sphere, but it matters not. The Werewolf is on the prowl in the back streets of Hollywood and beyond. Jack’s memories fade
My Rating “What Could Go Wrong?” Sgt. Rock and East Company have made their way behind enemy lines. Their mission is simple, find and take out the source of the Frankenstein sh*t! Hitler has got himself some new recruits and they are hard as nails. Is Doctor Morell behind the exotic undead elixir? Will Dozer
My Rating “Issue 04” Colonel Oats has tricked Bill and Ted into opening a portal from hell to the most excellent San Dimas. Now the full might of Satan’s army has split out into the shopping mall district. Oats is one major dill-weed! As the raiding party of Nicholas Paganini, Doctor Feelgood, Aleister Crowley, and
My Rating “This Book Is Gleefully Stupid” Kidnapped by Dazzler’s douchebag ex-boyfriend, slash vampire pretty-boy, Boom-Boom, Jubilee, and Dazzler fought their way through a vampire themed American Gladiators. After a bout with monster trucks the three make it to round two of the magic gladiator pit. X-23 greets the girls as they crawl out of
My Rating “Part 2: Prophet of Doom” Doctor Doom has arrived at the Strange Academy in New Orleans to commandeer Zoe Laveau for his magical experiment, but the Midnight Suns are gathered in defense of the school. A battle ensues but Doom has already lost before one spell has been cast. Agatha Harkness has spirited
My Rating “And Unto Dracula Was Born A Son” Several quail birds erupt from a dense shrub as a bloodcurdling scream shakes them from their slumber. This section of the remote Transylvanian Forest is historically quite but tonight the talk of witchcraft is in the air. A local woman has been accused of signing a
My Rating Reviewer Notes Halloween is almost upon us and this year Marvel Comics has released a second one-shot book inspired by its infamous horror series Crypt of Shadows. Crypt of Shadows originally ran from 1973 through 1975, lasting for 21 issues. The first books featured reprint stories from earlier works, but to compete with
My Rating “Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein” Night began to fall on the Artic tundra as Captain Robert Walton IV pushed his crew further towards their Schooner. The ship had become landlocked in the ice one week prior as heavy storms passed through the region. It mattered little though. The captain and his crew were close to
