Advance Review: Absolute Wonder Woman #1 (SPOILER-FREE)
Here comes Absolute Wonder Woman with an INCREDIBLE story right out of the gate. The creative team packed a powerful tale into the opening chapter, and this is a book that people will be talking about for a while. Every single page felt cinematic. I had to go back and re-read this again from cover to cover as it was THAT impressive. This is a bold new take on the world of Wonder Woman, and I am ALL IN to see where this goes next.
Comic Book Review: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #3
I’m going to keep it extremely minimal on story details because this is one that you have to read for yourself. This is one of the best TMNT issues that I’ve ever read, and quite possibly my favorite issue of the year. You will be hooked by the end of the first page.

Movie Review: JOKER: FOLIE À DEUX
When I normally go out to preview a movie, I do so at 7 pm. By the time the movie is finished and I’ve made the trip back home, it’s at least 10 pm, so I don’t have the bandwidth to write a review until the following day. I want to give my best feedback, and take some time to think about my response before I commit words to digital paper. But in the case of JOKER: FOLIE À DEUX, I don’t need to do that.
Comic Book Review: DC’s All In Special #1

With all the hype, can this issue meet fan expectations? I’m pleased to say the answer is a resounding YES.
Movie Review: The Wild Robot
Tonight I went out and saw The Wild Robot with my 11 year old daughter. The instant it finished, I went straight home and did some research into the books, and it appears there are three of them (which means there might be a trilogy in the offing after this). This is good, because The Wild Robot is a DELIGHTFUL kids movie that teaches several important life lessons in a heartwarming fashion. It has humor, an interesting plot, and a cast of emotionally interesting characters. I can see why so many great actors came out of the woodwork to participate in it.

Comic Book Review: Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees (TPB)
Among our favorite superheroes and sci-fi legends, a lot of our favorite comics have at one time or another taken a dark and gritty turn. While we’ve seen darker versions of formerly pretty benign things like Chuck E Cheese and Winnie the Pooh in recent years, we never thought we’d see a dark and gritty version of Richard Scarry’s BusyTown turned up to eleven, but here we are: Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees. An alternate universe BusyTown where Ms Honey, the schoolteacher bear, is here Samantha Strong, brown bear and the town’s friendly hardware store owner who is a serial killer on the side.
