Black Lightning Season 3 Episode 14 Review – ‘The Book of War: Chapter One: Homecoming’

by

Red Stewart reviews the fourteenth episode of Black Lightning season 3… I can’t believe I am saying this, but Black Lightning’s writers managed to do something I didn’t think was possible- they finally tied together most of the loose plot threads this show has left dangling since its inception three seasons ago.

Devil’s Advocates is a series that focuses on horror movies from Auteur Publishing. Other films […]

Calum Petrie reviews Alienated #2… The story of Alienated appears to be another interesting double meaning – not just the story of social segregation but also alien element to the story. This deep and charming tale is focused around the lives of three kids called Sam (Samir, Samuel and Samatha), each is a different kind […]

Comic Book Review – Transformers: The IDW Collection Phase Two – Vol. 10

by

Ricky Church reviews Transformers: The IDW Collection Phase Two – Vol. 10… IDW’s latest collection of their previous Transformers continuity features some good stories, but ones that aren’t quite as connected to each other as most of the previous collections have been. Rather Transformers: The IDW Collection Phase Two – Vol. 10 feels fairly episodic, though […]
