Quick Hit Reviews – Week of March 30, 2011

Posted on April 5, 2011 by dfstell

What a strong week for comics!  Almost everything last week was at least “pretty good” and that makes us happy at WCBR.  Even though we’ll do out duty and tell you when a comic SUCKS, we don’t take any pleasure in doing so and it’s a LOT more fun to talk about what was good. [...]

Dark Reign: The Cabal – Review

Posted on April 30, 2009 by pozzyfreak

Some Thoughts Before The Review: Since Dark Reign: The Cabal is a collection of short stories, I’ll write a small review for each before basing my final grade on the overall quality of the $3.99 one-shot. “Doctor Doom: …And I’ll Get The Land” Jonathan Hickman (Script) and Adi Granov (Art) More character study than anything [...]
