Hey y’all—here’s the live author talk I moderated with writer Jordan Clark at Fantom Comics about his series Ancestral Recall from AHOY Comics. We get into the Milestone Initiative origins, what it means to make “black history a literal superpower,” the collaborative groove with Antigon Ilhan, and why the book’s villain is a sentient AI […]

Polite Society is a fun and playful homage to 70s martial arts film that also mixes in Jane Austin-style romance and early 2000s teen comedies. The core sister relationship of Ria and Lena ties this fun remix of styles together to make a great theater experience. Grade: B Carmen feels like an interpolation of the […]

Alright, let me tell everyone from the jump I’m biased on this. Donkey Kong and Super Mario Bros. are some of the earliest memories in my life. Playing games with these characters are dearer to me than superhero comics, so after suffering in middle school with the old 1993 movie, I just expected that there […]

Now I’ll be honest and say I’m not a huge Luther fan. While I know it exists, it isn’t something that really ever made me want to watch. Idris Elba as a tortured, genius detective that hunts serial killers is a dope idea, but that first episode almost put me to sleep, and I like […]
