It has been a long three years, but the next installment of Brandon Sanderson’s Stormlight Archives is finally here with Rhythm of War. One year has passed on Roshar since the end of Oathbringer, and a lot has changed in the war between Odium’s forces, the combined might of the returned Fused, and the now-free Singers …
This week we are joined by Steph from “Welcome to St. Paxton”, a very good podcast about Cthulhu and the investigators who love them. Speaking of giant monsters, this episode we discuss Kaiju Girl Caramelise. It’s the story of a young girl who turns into a giant, city-crushing monster when she gets too emotional. Now …
This week we are joined by Nika Howard of the “Greetings, Adventurers!” podcast (among many other fun projects) to discuss the spookiest of spooky comics, The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina. But this ain’t your great-great-granfather’s Sabrina: The Teenage Witch. No, this Sabrina has some adventures. Chilling ones, even. Also there is a lot of blood …
Zombies, ghouls, and all the rest of the night’s ilk might be the least frightening things about 2020. I, too, have an approximately once-monthly freakout and want to howl at the moon. I, too, want to dissolve into mist or frantically flap around squeaking at frequent intervals. And I, too, shuffle around mindlessly in search …
In the ongoing tire fire that is 2020, supply chains are still messed up and the postal service is still struggling—as are local bookstores. Independent retailers have begun asking that people start their Christmas shopping early, so that everyone can properly and safely manage the influx. If you can do so, I encourage you to …
Did you know Kieran has never read a Fantastic 4 from start to finish? Well we aimed to change that this week with Fantastic 4: 1234. Is it a great intro to the greatest family ever written? Or just a grim-dark romp through New York where Ben gets hit by a car? Only one way …
In 2020 perhaps more than all the other years combined I’ve wondered if being human was really such a good thing. Not that I have a choice in the matter. Does anyone? Well…maybe Natsuki, the protagonist of Earthlings, has an inkling. Natsuki, who we see as both a young girl and a grown woman at …
Fall! Finally, an excuse to pretend we’re inside by choice. Cozy blankets, hot cider, and the kind of scares that stay safely within the frame of a TV set or the pages of a book. If you’re looking to feel a chill down your spine that pairs well with the spooky season and maybe some …
Thanks to people on our discord randomly posting weird comic panels, we decided to review our first Elseworld’s book. We didn’t realize this was a sequel to another Elseworld story, but that didn’t slow us down. We needed to know why Superman both looked like Santa and was weilding a semi-truck engine/gun. The answers may …
A Little Hatred, the first book in Joe Abercrombie’s Age of Madness trilogy, came out merely one year ago. That book set the pieces on the chessboard and made their first moves. Now The Trouble with Peace has arrived and the powers plays are being set in motion on all sides. As it begins, it …
