    •  Comic Review for week of November 14, 2018

      I’ve heard this is one of the best selling Valiant comics in years, but it was still underwhelming for me.  Hopefully the story makes a little more sense after a few more issues.

      Wasn’t on my pull list, but my comic shop pulled it for me anyways, thank god.  This was a fun but brief journey back to the Doctor Horrible Universe.

      What a terrible conclusion to a terrible storyline.

      A stunning tale of fantastic four members all coming together to do fantastic things against an unbeatable enemy.  I’m happy that Mr Fantastic has a name for particular types of beings in the Marvel Multiverse, but I’m concerned that with the end of this issue comes the end of their multiverse / outer space adventures.  I’m not really looking forward to them rejoining Earth and am much happier reading about them doing fantastic things elsewhere.

      That cover is gorgeous isn’t it?  The story inside is pretty damn fantastic and they perfectly get the dialogue, which has been a struggle for past Firefly books.  I look forward to the next issue!

      Bleh.

      I like the new art direction, I like the skulls, I like the jewels, I hate the racist overtones of the bad guys.

      Space Horror done right.

      Boring and unneeded.  Skip it and just go see the movie.

      Dark and muddled art but I like where the story is going.  I’m not too familiar with the friendship between Ninja-K and The Eternal Warrior, but I get the impression they’re pretty darn close.

      I honestly felt like this was an episode of the Star Trek Animated series.  Fantastic retro art direction for both the Trek crew and the Robots in disguise.

      This issue left me feeling like there’s no possible way for them to top what they’ve done.  Yet I’ve felt that way for the last few Vader issues, so since I was wrong before, I’ll be happy to be wrong in the future.

    Pokmon Detective Pikachu

    MV5BMTk1MjgwNjM2MV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwMzMyODM3NjM@. V1 SY1000 CR006741000 AL Pokémon Detective Pikachu

    The story begins when ace private eye Harry Goodman goes mysteriously missing, prompting his 21-year-old son Tim to find out what happened. Aiding in the investigation is Harry’s former Pokémon partner, Detective Pikachu: a hilariously wise-cracking, adorable super-sleuth who is a puzzlement even to himself. Finding that they are uniquely equipped to communicate with one another, Tim and Pikachu join forces on a thrilling adventure to unravel the tangled mystery. Chasing clues together through the neon-lit streets of Ryme City—a sprawling, modern metropolis where humans and Pokémon live side by side in a hyper-realistic live-action world—they encounter a diverse cast of Pokémon characters and uncover a shocking plot that could destroy this peaceful co-existence and threaten the whole Pokémon universe.

    10 Invincible: The Ultimate Collection
    11 Invincible: The Ultimate Collection
    12 Invincible: The Ultimate Collection

    This massive hardcover collects the first 13 issues of Robert Kirkman’s Eisner-Nominated super-hero, along with all the extras from the first three trade paperback volumes and even more on top of that! Invincible: The Ultimate Collection, Volume 1 is a can’t-miss for anyone who’s wanted to start reading Invincible, but needed an easier way to start from the beginning.

    I had the first 7 hardcovers before I gave up on comic books and when i came back to the industry as a fan, they called out to me to complete them, nay they taunted me with their uncompleted status.

    So I bought the other four volumes and found that Robert Kirkman was still killing it with Invincible, but lost his damn mind and wanted to cancel it.  Did he get bored? Did he write himself into a corner?  Did he not have time to pen this series while counting all his massive stacks of cash?  Who knows, but I’m happy I had over 144 issues of the series to read with all the supplemental content in the back of these books.  They’re among the best superhero stories you can possibly read and I can’t recommend them enough.

    Because of how high I was feeling after finishing that last giant hardcover book, I rushed across my room (four feet!) to order some trades of “Invincible Universe“, a side story that ran for 12 issues in it’s own series.  It was not of the same quality of the main series, neither in story nor in art.  This isn’t to say it was terrible, just not as amazing as the mainline books.

     

    I have Science Dog and Guarding the Globe on backorder, so we’ll see how those are when they get in.  I think there’s a couple other series (The Brit?  Tech Jacket?) in the invincible comic universe, but I’m not too excited about them just yet.


  • Planet Hulk

    planetHulk br Planet Hulk

    Earth’s mightiest heroes exiled him to outer space. Now the Incredible Hulk has crash-landed on a distant alien planet, ruled by the tyrannical Red King, and he must become the planet’s mightiest gladiator if he wants to survive.

    Not as fantastic as the comic version, but damn close, this was an amazingly well done version of the story. I’d love to see a World War Hulk movie, but what are the odds of that happening?

    Gaming guide creator Prima Games is shutting down

    dims 500x263 Gaming guide creator Prima Games is shutting down

    Prima Games closes its doors after 28 years, bringing an end to its video game strategy guides.

    The last book I bought from them for actual legit guidance was for Final Fantasy X. After that, i would only pick up their books when they got down to the $3-$5 range just for the art and commentary, but as the OP mentions, why pay $30+ for a book when you can get the same content online for free?

    F The Prom

    71RfSy3zM1L. SL1000 F The Prom

    It stands for “Fuck the Prom”, and I’m not sure if they knew who they were making this film for. There’s fun to be had here, it’s a nice classical story that has a fair bit of humor, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a cheerleader turning unpopular and going back to her nerd roots to get revenge on the other cheerleaders, reverse Carrie style.

    Sergeant York

    91Ndmef4PL. RI SX300 Sergeant York

    Story of World War I hero who captured German position single-handedly. Film also portrays York’s earlier life in the mountains of Tennessee.

    York was a good guy who had his land stolen, then found religion when he had his gun blown out of his hand, turning into a pacifist who didn’t want to go fight in world war one. He made it home just fine though with the direct intervention of the lord almighty.

    Was thinly veiled attempt to get objectors into world war 2? Maybe. Regardless, it’s a fantastic movie that’s well acted and has a fantastic series of sets that at times I was nearly 90% sure were sets. Maybe.

    I think i was told I was related to this guy somehow, but I’m also pretty sure I’m not and that was either a false memory or a tall tale my dad told me because he was proud of a fellow Tennessean that done good in the war.

    A Star Is Born 1976

    91B8bvh8oHL. RI SX300 A Star Is Born (1976)

    The fire of Barbra Streisand. The magnetism of Kris Kristofferson. Thereckless world of big-time rock ‘n’ roll.

    I watched this with my wife. It’s a sad movie with a bit of singing in it with a very sad ending.
