I only recently got around to seeing John Wicks 2 or 3. I’m actually doing really well on that list of missed films from the 2010’s (COVID-19 has “helped”), and the Wick sequels were top priority there. I have been averaging four to five movies a week ever since I have been […]

Stew’s Reviews: Illuminati
Conspiracy theories would be fun if they weren’t so dangerous sometimes. As of this writing, we are still in the throes of COVID-19. I am saying it like that because I am hoping very much that by the time this goes out, that will all be over. But… it doesn’t […]
Stew’s Reviews: Firestorm
I don’t tend to review a lot of older books for this column, I know. It’s not entirely a conscious choice. Historically, when I have reviewed books from before, say, the 1990’s, they don’t typically get the attention that books from that era onward do. And I am a man […]
Stew’s Reviews: Marvel Zombies
My cat is really not having this article. I am usually able to write these in relative peace. I settle in on the bed in the spare guestroom, get something to snack on and some lemonade, and I got to town. Maybe one of the three cats will jump up […]
Stew’s Reviews: Street Fighter X GI Joe
I’ve never been a big Licensed Property kind of guy. When I read comic books, I want to read comic book characters. I don’t pick up a comic book because I want to read Stranger Things story. If I want Stranger Things, I’ll watch the show. When I want a […]
Stew’s Reviews: Daredevil Yellow
As I write this, I am in the middle of “social distancing”. Even though I’m not that far ahead on articles—only about two or three weeks nowadays, whoof—I’m curious where we as a society will be by the time this is published. Coronavirusmania is currently running wild. All public schools […]
Stew’s Reviews: Civil War
Missing issues is the worst. Despite the fact that I work close enough to a great comic store that I could walk there, shop, and get back to work all within my lunch break, I have a bad habit of only going comic shopping once every several weeks (if not […]
Stew’s Reviews: Flash Forward
This is a rather unintentional series I have cultivated. I have previously reviewed DC: Rebirth, Flash War, and Heroes In Crisis in this column. The overarching, Post-New-52 story of those books brings us to the very recently concluded Flash Forward, and here we are. It was never really intentional. Somehow […]
Stew’s Reviews: Astro City (Local Heroes)
All right. After a ludicrously cursed attempt last year, I am back to trying to move. I never would have imagined that selling one house and buying another would be such a chore as it was in 2019! We got strung along for four months before our buyer ended up […]
Stew’s Reviews: Spider-Geddon
As I write this, I am about a week removed from having a surprise appendectomy. It’s weird how your body can just turn on you. I’m not here to say it’s a terrible thing compared to what a lot of people go through, but waking up at 3am because you […]
Stew’s Reviews: Bitch Planet
I’m probably napping too much these days. It’s not for lack of having things to do. I have fallen very far off of my pace on these articles. I used to have a cache of 15-20 ready at given time, but that’s down to a little more than five. I […]
Stew’s Reviews: Batman – Cataclysm
I recently ranked 63 comics I reviewed in the last two years against each other for an anniversary celebration to see where they all fit against one another. It was… a lot of work. Digging through old material to remember what books were involved, debating internally as to how they stack up […]
