Comic Book Review – Sex Criminals #14
Jessie Robertson reviews Sex Criminals #14… If you’ve never read Sex Criminals, don’t let anything stop you: the title of the book, the independent label, the non-superhero context, none of it matters.

Comic Book Review – Paper Girls #5
Zeb Larson reviews Paper Girls #5… END OF STORY ARC! The first arc of the smash-hit ongoing series concludes with major revelations and another game-changing cliffhanger.

Comic Book Review – Nailbiter #20
Zeb Larson reviews Nailbiter #20… The new serial killer strikes again! Plus, a major death that will rock NAILBITER for years to come! Ugh.
