Comic Book Review: Sons of Star Trek #1

“Q Junior has transported the Sons of Star Trek to an alternate timeline where his dear “Aunt Kathy” never murdered Tuvix, Dukat never murdered Jadzia Dax, and Beckett Mariner never murdered her career.” 4.5/5 -Kevin Gaussoin, ComicsOnline

Movie Review: Kung Fu Panda 4

Thinking about the Kung Fu Panda series has always made me smile. The action is fun, the humor is good, and it lampoons the martial arts obsession pushed onto modern kids by mainstream media. The exceptional part is that it explores important themes like perseverance, body shaming, self-authenticity, and the power of positive thought. Every villain is consumed by insecurity and pride, and their defeat is always heralded by a failure to rise above these unworthy but very human feelings. Kung Fu Panda 4 comes off a bit ham-handed at the start, but much like Cars 3, it is all about aging gracefully and passing the torch.

Movie Review: Dune: Part 2

When I went in to watch Dune: Part 2, I’d already received a taste of what Denis Villeneuve was capable of. I had high expectations because the previous movie had shown me he *could* bring the Dune series to life in all its nuanced complexity. But I was still leery as to whether or not he did. I didn’t want to be disappointed.  

That said, nothing is disappointing about Dune: Part 2. It is a perfect movie.

Comic Book Review: Rare Flavours #4

“From soup to nuts, Rare Flavours is devilishly delicious. Ram V and Filipe Andrade continue to cook up a tale worthy of Gaiman or Bourdain. ComicsOnline gives Rare Flavours #4 four out of five deceptively simple roadside diversions.” -Kevin Gaussoin

Comic Book Review: What If? Venom #1

“She met him at church. He swept her right off her feet. He was smooth, dark, and had a long tongue he kept her wrapped around. How could our heroine resist?” 4.5/5 -Zoe Gaussoin, ComicsOnline

Writer Jeremy Adams, Artist Amancay Nahuelpan, Colorist Romulo Fajardo Jr., and Letterer Dave Sharpe will surely shock you with this game-changing issue of Green Lantern.

Advance Review: Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Return #1

Power Rangers takes the WHAT IF… approach for a unique exploration of the original team in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Return, a special 4-issue series from BOOM! Studios.

What if the original team from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers never disbanded? Not only is this a different take on the Power Rangers story as we know it, but is brought to us from the mind of the original Pink Ranger – Amy Jo Johnson! The former Power Ranger teams up with co-writer Matt Hotson (Titans), Artist Nico Leon (Ms. Marvel), Colorist Francesco Segala (All-New Firefly), Colorist Gloria Martinelli (All-New Firefly), and Letterer Ed Dukeshire (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers) to form a new creative team with attitude!
