Mercy. Chris Pratt has a mere 90 minutes to convince an AI Judge/Jury/Executioner that he didn’t kill his wife. 90 minutes is such a stupid arbitrary short time to mount an investigation and defense that the rest of the movie is stupider for it. Without it, it might’ve been a semi-interesting murder...

Marvel announced its next X-Men event for the fall; DNX. The X-Men team up with the Fantastic Four to prevent the Chairman(aka White Beast aka the original Hank McCoy) from re-unleashing the X-Virus to turn ordinary humans into mutants. I appreciate that Marvel has committed to turning Hank into a f...

Remember Artax? The horse that truamatized an entire generation when he sunk into the Swamp of Despair? Did you realize he had less than three minutes of screen time, and the majority of that was his death scene? We, collectively, became attached to a horse that we had met five minutes before that i...

DC’s Lex and the City. Giant $10 anthology oneshot. DC’s Legion of Bloom. Another $10 oneshot. DC’s I Know What You Did Last Crisis. Another $10 oneshot. DC’s Kal-El fornia Love. Another $10 oneshot. I started looking to see how many of these $10 oneshots they’ve put out over the years. Turns out t...

Because I have adhd and couldn’t possibly, reasonably be expected to wait until the 25th of April in two weeks to search for back issues at Alan’s show. I went to two different LCS and dropped $40 on $2 at each shop. Thats 40 books for $80 for you math aficionados out there. The first shop, Have Fun...

Started the Cap books. Capt America 27-30. The end of Ta-Nahesi Coates run on the series. I had read the previous issues about four years ago. I was missing issue 26, so I went out and bought an extra copy of 27 instead. Anyway, after finally clearing his name for the assassination of Thunderbolt Ro...

When in the timeline is Maul set?

Also, why does he call himself Cable? Like, what’s the in-continuity reason he pulled that basic bitch name out of a hat... i swear to god, it has to have something to do with the George Washington Bridge connecting Harlem to northern New Jersey - Liefeld heard some news report about a Cable being ...

A brief run of Cable. Cable 8-10. The final issues of Kid Cable short Krakoa ongoing. It’s been over four years since I read the first 7 issues. KidCable os fighting a re-emerged Stryfe who has kidnapped a bunch of mutant children for whatever macguffin reason. KidCable realizes that he needs the Co...

That said, I would buy the fuck out of Absolute Heckler if it was done right. Absolute Ambush Bug is just Ambush Bug, but hanging out in the Absolute Universe making DKR did it first jokes. Anyway, here’s 4/1 Part II Infernal Hulk 5. The Eldest, in Hulk’s body wages war on Cincinnati. The One Above...

The people who love AbBat are the same people who started reading comics when DC did Nu52, so Snyder’s run is their first Batman experience. But there’re SOOO MANY absurd plot points in this run. And I could forgive one or two or three of them. But they just keep stacking on top of each other. MM wa...

I took advantage of a B2GO sale and got Absolute Superman and Batman Volumes 1, just to see what the fuss is, and the X-Men '97 prequel, even though I know there's a 110% chance of something in Season 2 rendering it non-canon. Absolute Superman is great and continues to get better with each arc. Ja...

3/24 Part II Knull 3. Knull and Thanos go at it. Knull wins. And next he sets his sights on that punk upstart that usurped his throne, Eddie Brock. Except he gets pulled into an alt universe where an Eddie Brock is a knight made of light. Or something. Wait, is this the Eddie from that oneshot I rea...
