What is this, my…third consecutive DC book? And the two before this stretch were both independent books? I know how the internet works! Accusation of anti-Marvel bias is going to kick in any minute now! Actually, throughout my history here, I have taken pride in maintaining something close to a […]

Stew’s Reviews: Dark Victory
I’ve never read Dark Knight Strikes Back. From what I understand, I’m not missing much, but I just never got around to picking it up. I think I thumbed through the trade when it was all collected, and it just looked too “busy” for me. So I just never gave […]
Stew’s Reviews: Tower of Babel
It’s been a while since I was able to write an article, as the last few weeks have been mayhem. First, I was in beautiful Punta Cana for my sister-in-law’s wedding, and while I was there, my Mac died, so I had to get it fixed upon my return. I’m […]
Stew’s Reviews: Rurouni Kenshin
It’s tough having to separate an artist from his work. There are some things I enjoy—comics, movies, television shows, etc—where the product is truly amazing, but the people involved in its creation may run the gamut from politically unsavory to downright repugnantly criminal. Where do you draw the line? Is […]
Stew Reviews: The Fix
It’s been a while since I have done a non-Big 2 book that wasn’t a manga, so I guess I better do that, or else I’ll fall back into my unfairly established reputation of hating indie books. I guess Fables doesn’t TECHNICALLY count because it is a DC property (but […]
The Family Graves – A Review
I really kind of love Spookytown. If you have never seen or heard of it, Spookytown is a series of Halloween decorations you mix and match to create your own Halloween display village. I guess Christmas villages are a thing with people? I’d never heard of them before this, but […]
Stew Reviews: World War Wendigo
We’re still reviewing some of the books I picked up at the discount store that I mentioned last week. And since I wrote that article, I made a second trip out and picked up ANOTHER JSA trade that they had for sale, so I’m still stocking up on those. So […]
Stew’s Reviews: JSA – Mixed Signals
Is Ollie’s a national chain, or is it somewhat local? Do you know what Ollie’s is? It’s terrific. They have the cheapest random assortment of stuff in the world. It’s an occasional boon for finding discontinued Pop-Tarts for the Pop-Tart Quest. But beyond that, they just have so much great […]
Stew Reviews: The Child Within
I have had a cold for 14 days. It’s not great! Five days ago, I had completely lost my voice, but luckily I regained enough of it to be able to semi-successfully podcast last night. But we recorded essentially two whole shows, and the end of the night, I was […]
Stew Reviews: Hunter/Prey
I just signed up for the DC Universe Streaming Service! I put this off for a while, but eventually my desire to see if the Young Justice cartoon is as good as I had always heard won out. And when I went to the site to see what all was […]
Stew’s Reviews: Dragon Ball Super
I’m feeling more negative lately, and I don’t really enjoy that. Like I’m once again finding myself at the point where I am arguing consistently on the “this stinks!” side of things. Read Pile for the podcast? I’m crapping on the books lately. Moves in the theater to review? Crapping. […]
Stew Reviews: Fables – The Last Castle
I am a big fan of the TellTale Games Walking Dead series, even though the last season got canned unfinished when TellTale went out of business. I have heard that another company was going to pick up the ball and finish the season out so that the games could have […]
