Young Justice S02E01 – Review

Posted on April 29, 2012 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Greg Weisman (story) The Story: YJ’s philosophy toward recruitment? The more the merrier. The Review: When I reviewed the show’s season finale last week, I was all settled in for a summer’s break until its return. I suppose I should have known by now to give up trying to figure out this show’s release [...]

Weird Worlds #6 – Review

Posted on June 6, 2011 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Too many to list-check out the review The Story: Lobo lobs a leader, G-Man gets rejected, and Tanga looks into imported liquor. The Review: So we’ve come at last to the end of this undeniably interesting series, an attempt to flesh out DC’s cosmic/horror sphere through features rather than the lens of an ongoing [...]

R.E.B.E.L.S. #28 – Review

Posted on May 17, 2011 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Tony Bedard (writer), Claude St. Aubin (penciller), Robert Campanella (inker), Rich & Tanya Horie (colorists) The Story: You’re not the boss of us anymore, Starro! We’re taking back our streets! The Review: It’s been a strange, not-so-long journey for DC’s non-Green Lantern-related space opera. Having started with a fairly high-stakes mission rebelling against the [...]

Weird Worlds #5 – Review

Posted on May 4, 2011 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Too many to list—check out the review. The Story: Lobo gets his money, G-Man gets a missionary, and Tanga gets hit on. The Review: The three-feature miniseries that is Weird Worlds has been an interesting format choice for the series, but ultimately a serious limiting factor for its success. Each feature runs about the [...]

R.E.B.E.L.S. #27 – Review

Posted on April 18, 2011 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Tony Bedard (writer), Claude St. Aubin (penciller), Scott Hana (inker), Rich & Tanya Horie (colorists) The Story: Prepare to be sucker-punched—and by sucker-punch I mean getting a telepathic starfish in your face. The Review: A big cast can be a handful to write, but their usefulness to fiction is invaluable. The more well-developed characters [...]

By: Too many to list; check the review below. The Story: Lobo versus an army of pink, naked four-armed dudes! Garbage Man loses his arm to the Wolf Man! Tanga defeats the monstrous, doughboy-eating Bob! The Review: If you’re writing a comic book miniseries, try to keep in mind that unlike an ongoing title, you [...]

Posted on March 22, 2011 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Tony Bedard (writer), Daniel HDR & Claude St. Aubin (pencillers), Scott Hana (inker), Rich & Tanya Horie (colorists) The Story: Place your bets, folks—who’ll destroy the system first: a Starro invasion, or a rampage of Lobo clones? The Review: By now, you should know the drill: with this title’s cancellation imminent, a step back [...]

Posted on March 13, 2011 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Too many to list—check out the review. The Story: Lobo and the psychic electric eels! Garbage Man vs. the Wolf Man! Tanga, savior of the doughboy race! The Review: Sci-fi comes in two schools: your classic horror and space adventure stuff, and your mind-blowing, semi-existential, social commentary concepts. Thanks to writers like Neil Gaiman, [...]

Weird Worlds #2 – Review

Posted on February 7, 2011 by Minhquan Nguyen

By: Too many to list—check out the review. The Story: Lobo experiences the perils of messing with midgets; Garbage Man finds that bullets are overrated; and Tanga discovers Bruk comes in only one, intriguingly potent flavor. The Review: It’s very difficult for new characters to break into superhero comics. There’s just too much competition, what [...]
