Comic Book Review – The Witcher: Fading Memories #3

by

Calum Petrie reviews The Witcher: Fading Memories #3… The mystery of Badreine, a case of unnatural and hard to explain events, has caught the attention of Geralt of Rivia. The further down the rabbit hole he goes, the more the mystery comes to truth, yet the tighter his predicament becomes. The last issue revealed the […]

Comic Book Review – Once & Future #15

by

Calum Petrie reviews Once & Future #15… As we step back into this beautifully drawn and coloured story, we pick up where the last issue left off. We have Rose at gunpoint from “Nimue”, Duncan’s mother, while across the country Bridgette and Duncan are investigating the old family house for clues. This issue certainly put […]

Comic Book Review – Second Coming: Only Begotten Son #1

by

Calum Petrie reviews Second Coming: Only Begotten Son #1… Do you know the origins of Superman? I would hope you do if you are reading a comic book review, and Second Coming starts off like the beginnings of the Man of Steel.

Comic Book Review – Stranger Things and Dungeons & Dragons #2

by

Calum Petrie reviews Stranger Things and Dungeons & Dragons #2… The first issue of Stranger Things and Dungeons & Dragons certainly focused a lot more on the later half of the title’s second element, and come the start of the second issue, the story in Hawkins has progressed a lot further than I had imagined […]

Comic Book Review – The Witcher: Fading Memories #1

by

Calum Petrie reviews The Witcher: Fading Memories #1… When it comes to The Witcher, it will be very hard to find someone who has not come into some kind of contact with the brand.

The adventures of Duncan, his Gran and Rose are back onto the path of investigation rather then being the victims […]
