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 comic book, I want Spider-Man. Or Jubilee. Mostly Jubilee. Not to say I am direly … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Street Fighter X GI Joe
Marv from Pods Like Us is back to discuss a better movie this time! It’s the MCU’s first feature-length Spider-Man flick, Homecoming! For more from Pods Like Us, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 106: Spider-Man Homecoming
I am admittedly not much of a believer in things that require faith or in things that are supernatural or extraterrestrial. My personal thoughts on the matter are that I don’t have superpowers, so why should it be fair if, like, Bigfoot or aliens visiting earth exist! Someday, though, I’m sure my latent heat vision or something will kick in, and we can revisit this … Continue reading American Werewolves 2: The Skinwalkers Review
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 are closed for the next two weeks in my state. The NBA and NHL seasons … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Daredevil Yellow
FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! EPISODE 17 With the best episode of the series in our rear-view mirror, it’s time to see if we get back to business or what. While I appreciate a well-crafted episode about the death of one of the show’s worst characters, I also recognize there is precious little time left this season to deal with Glory, who has been … Continue reading Mombie: A BTVS Retrospective, S5 E17-18

Three straight DC articles and then two straight X-Men reviews? Rut City, am I right? No, actually, there is a reason for this. Bear with me. We just recorded a podcast all about X-Titles this past weekend, and I got to go into how I am the biggest X-fan on our show and how I have been enamored of Marvel’s mutants since the beginning of … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Battle of the Atom
I am really struggling to figure out where exactly I land when it comes to the Coen brothers and their movies. Two of their movies probably place in my top 100 flicks of all time. Well, No Country For Old Men definitely does. I’ve seen that film several times, and I always am enraptured in the tale and the creeping menace of Anton Chigurh. Then … Continue reading Drive-Away Dolls Review
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 months). Just this week I made it out to the shop for the first time … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Civil War
The living legend Mark Waid joins The Order this episode to go back to 1996 and review Billy Zane’s The Phantom! For more from Mark Waid, click HERE! Continue reading Episode 104: The Phantom
We are back to some Shudder Roulette lately! I watched the fairly well-received Suitable Flesh recently on the streaming service, and it wasn’t quite for me, unfortunately. I found it to be very Malignant-adjacent, but it didn’t have the same respectability quotient as James Wan’s bonkers outing. That movie was a big budget, big studio release that had the balls to advertise itself as a … Continue reading Destroy All Neighbors Review
As I write this, it’s the day of Super Bowl 58, pitting the Kansas City Chiefs against the San Francisco 49ers. One of the biggest stories leading up to the game is Taylor Swift and her romantic involvement with KC tight end Travis Kielce. This has caused… just so much media coverage and consternation and fan swooning. It’s too much. For an event that’s already … Continue reading Argylle Review
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 in my blending together or newer and older books, I just kept coming back to … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Flash Forward
FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! EPISODE 15 We open up with a furious Buffy hard at training while simultaneously bitching about Spike, who she just keeps leaving alive anyway, so maybe go yell at a mirror, dumbass. We eventually see that she isn’t pounding away at a heavybag, but instead at Xander in a big puffy suit, like what people wear in those sumo … Continue reading Ding Dong: A BTVS Restrospective, S5 E15-16
