    Welp, we still have issues. So many, in fact, that we decided to follow up our first iteration with Volume 2!

    Enjoy it or off yourself.

  • First Glance: TMNT The Last Ronin #2

    Our second First Glance (it makes sense, don't worry about it) 4 months later! After a number of delays the next issue of The Last Ronin is here, and we dive into it because it's Turtles.. And you know we love our Turtles!

    We'll be following this series as it drops, one issue at a time, independent of our regular episodes, and other supplemental series. So enjoy it or perform seppuku, you disgrace.

  • #46 - The MCUneedtorelaxbud

    What. A. Drop!

    Late last week, we were all dumped on by Disney's MCU plans for the next TWO phases: four and five.. And mama mia, was it ever a lot. Some of it good, some of it unnecessary, and we both have our opinions on the rollout and the choices moving forward. 
    Sidenote: We only cover the MCU drop in this, not the Star Wars or other reveals

  • #45 - We Have Issues Vol 1

    We're trying something a little new (and simple) this time around for episode 45, and boy, do we ever have issues.

    We each went into our grab bags and scooped out 4 issues a piece, read all 8 on our own time, and come here to discuss and dive into the ones we want to continue reading and the ones we never want to see again.. Ever.

    This was fun to break away from the main Big Two superheroes and such, and will be an episode archetype we bring back again - enjoy or off yourself.

    - Savage Dragon #75 (1993)
    - Robotix #1 (1986)
    - Exiles #1 (2001)

  • #44 - Swamp Thing & Iceman [Across the Pages]

    Across the Pages (AxP) is our series where we take two similar-ish characters/teams/properties from different creators or publishers and give their various forms of media a well-deserved spotlight.

    This time, it's all about the over-powered, underused elementals of DC and Marvel: Swamp Thing the avatar of The Green and Iceman, the omega level, ice-powered mutant. Easily comparable characters for an episode of AxP, and also two of our favourites.

    In this episode, we cover: 

    Astonishing X-Men #65
    X-Men TAS episode "Cold Comfort"
    Swamp Thing (1982)
    Swamp Thing: Winter Special #1

  • Suicide Squad (2016) [Bottle Cap Review]

    It came out 4 years ago, yes, but we've never talked about it... So here it is. The fact that it goes on for longer than most of our Bottle Cap Reviews is enough to prove that we had lots to talk about, from Harley to Deadshot to Boomerang to Slipknot to that damn soundtrack. And Joker. The, um... very unique take on Joker.

    Bottle Caps away!

  • Something is Killing the Children Vol 1: The Angel of Archer’s Peak [Arc Analysis #14]

    One thing we love doing on our Arc Analysis series: finding hidden gems, outside of the big 2 publishers, like this comic right here. It's as self-explanatory as they come and that is a nice change of pace from epic, sprawling adventures for a more focused, but grizzly idea.

    Check out why on our 14th episode of Arc Analysis.
    Or don't... but then we won't be able to save you.

  • First Glance: TMNT The Last Ronin #1

    It can be a challenge to keep up with comic releases week over week, but with IDW's new release of Eastman and Laird's The Last Ronin, we couldn't help ourselves. 

    We'll be following this series as it drops, one issue at a time, independent of our regular episodes, and other supplemental series. So enjoy it or perform seppuku, you disgrace.
