Stew’s 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 it should; it’s essentially an independent book that just happened to be published by one … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: The Fix

Oh no, Xander Sucks Again: A BtVS Retrospective: S2 Episodes 5-6

FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! After having episodes 3 (great!) and 4 (terrible!) back to back, I have no idea what to expect from this show anymore. These two episodes could have quality levels of virtually anything, and I’d be like “Yeah, that makes sense, sure”. I’m very curious as to where we go in this pair. The second season’s fifth episode kicks off … Continue reading Oh no, Xander Sucks Again: A BtVS Retrospective: S2 Episodes 5-6

WrestleMania 39 Night 2 Review

WrestleMania 39 Night One is in the books, and it was pretty damn good overall. It had some low points (the six-woman tag, Cena/Theory, the time killing McAfee/Miz impromptu match), but those were more than measured out by the highs. So keeping the positivity in mind, here are my Top Five Favorite Things About WrestleMania 39 Night One: So what were YOUR top 5 moments … Continue reading WrestleMania 39 Night 2 Review

A Promise of Railroad Spikes: A BTVS Retrospective, S2 E3-4

FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! We start off in school, and GOD I can’t wait for these kids to graduate and get out of this setting already. Principal Snyder is here with Buffy and another heretofore unseen student named Sheila. According to Snyder, these two are the worst students in SunnyDale… and he is going to expel one of them. So he does what … Continue reading A Promise of Railroad Spikes: A BTVS Retrospective, S2 E3-4

Stew’s Reviews: Return of Superman

I covered the Death of Superman a few months back, and I had previously forgotten that, while it may not be an objectively well-made book, I really did enjoy it. It’s a delightful bang-up of a comic. But what’s more, I really dig some of the stuff it wrought in its wake. So we’re moving on to what will be part two in a… hmmm… … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Return of Superman

It’s A New Season: A BTVS Retrospective, S2, Eps 1-2

FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! Hey, it’s time for Buffy The Vampire Slayer season 2! It almost can’t possibly be worse than season 1, a dozen episodes of poor writing, mostly bad jokes, and insipid threats. And that one episode where the FBI just barges in like they just ran in from the ending of Monty Python & The Holy Grail! But hey, at … Continue reading It’s A New Season: A BTVS Retrospective, S2, Eps 1-2

Movies Directed By Women

The Oscars recently happened, and once again, there were no Women nominated in the Best Director category, reversing a trend of… well, just two years. But in 2021 and 2022, there were women nominees! But none this year. But in the face of that and March being Women’s History Month, I thought I’d take a look back at cinematic history and give credit to some … Continue reading Movies Directed By Women

Xander Is Less Awful: A BTVS Retrospective, Eps 11-12

FOR PREVIOUS BUFFY REVIEWS, CLICK HERE! We sees Cordelia and two of her friends walking through the halls of the school to open the penultimate episode of the first season. They quite literally bump into Buffy, causing the latter to spill her assortment of medieval weaponry to the floor. Buffy makes a lame excuse for why she has them, but Cordy just makes fun of … Continue reading Xander Is Less Awful: A BTVS Retrospective, Eps 11-12
