Top Ten: Generation Three Pokemon

Pokemon’s Generation 3 is a weird one for me. In hindsight, it was a great, important generation. Introduced abilities. Gave us the first true system leap as Pokemon bounded from the Gameboy to the Gameboy Advance. Introduced some new battle mechanics. But man… when it came out, I was just so “meh” to it. I never really played through Ruby, Sapphire, or Emerald until YEARS … Continue reading Top Ten: Generation Three Pokemon

Jab’s Image Comics Deep Dive: Gen 13 part 2

So Why Was It Successful?:ASS. Ass ass ass. And legs. Sometimes boobs. But mostly ass and legs. J. Scott Campbell was made an almost instant superstar, and the fact that the book reveled in T&A more than anything else in Image at the time was a big turn-on to an audience of horny teenage boys. This wasn’t like a Liefeld or Lee book, where there … Continue reading Jab’s Image Comics Deep Dive: Gen 13 part 2

Top Ten: Fictional Mothers

Mothers and their children share a special something something. Hey, I don’t know what to tell you; my own mom was the dirt fucking worst. All kinds of abusive and really just the absolute pits. She died a long time ago, though, so it’s fine. I won. But what are you, my therapist? This isn’t what you are here for! You’re here for the Top Ten … Continue reading Top Ten: Fictional Mothers

Stew’s Reviews: Superior Foes of Spider-Man

Does anyone know if Deadly Foes of Spider-Man still holds up? I loved that mini-series from the early 1990’s, but I worry that it will have aged poorly if I try to go back to it. If I recall it correctly, it had some aspects that absolutely should have survived as good story-telling (a humanizing portrayal of Boomerang, a kick-ass female character in Leila Davis, and a … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: Superior Foes of Spider-Man

Entertainment Rex: September 2021

Last month, I lamented that I had only seen ten movies in the span of an entire month. I went on a September TEAR to make up for that! So let’s get straight into the first half of September’s recommendations. MOVIES Seventeen days, twelve movies. That’s more like it. I kind of blew up in the last few days of August, man. And those ratings … Continue reading Entertainment Rex: September 2021

Malignant Review

Here’s the thing. I usually break down my movie reviews into three sections: Non-Spoiler intro / Spoiler story section / Non-spoiler wrap-up. There is virtually no way possible I can talk about this movie without at least mild spoilers. I just wouldn’t have very much to say! So here’s your advance warning: This ENTIRE ARTICLE is a SPOILER WARNING! Yeah, look at that trailer! Man, … Continue reading Malignant Review

Top Ten: Horror Films of the 2010’s

I was improperly raised on horror movies as a child, as I have detailed before. In addition to the semi-regular Jason-based nightmares that are just ingrained in my DNA at this point, it has given me a lifelong love of the genre. Horror cinema just combines some of the best parts of every other field of film-making; they can be funny and mysterious and tense and … Continue reading Top Ten: Horror Films of the 2010’s

We’re moving on to Generation 2 this week to see who is the creme de la creme from the Gameboy Color era of Pokemon. I love Generation 2, and I had a copy of Pokemon Crystal for ages that I played over and … Continue reading Top Ten: Generation Two Pokemon

For more on this series up to this point, click HERE! #80. Preacher #50 The second of what I’m sure will be at least a few more Preacher books on this list–Wizard loved this book so damn hard–I was surprised by how much I liked the previous offering. I distinctly recall not having liked Preacher much when it was being published. And this issue has … Continue reading The Top 100 Comics Of A Lifetime, Part 5 (#80-76)

Pop-Tart Quest: Strawberry Milkshake

POP-TARTS ARE FOREVER. POP-TARTS ARE A GIRL’S BEST FRIEND. BLOOD POP-TARTS. TWO KARAT POP-TARTS. WAIT, NONE OF THESE SOUND RIGHT. THIS IS… POP-TART QUEST! I know I have given Pop-Tarts some crap in the past over flavors like Pink Lemonade, Orange Crush, and A&W Root Beer because drinks aren’t food. But what if they kind of split the difference? Milkshakes! Milkshakes are the food of … Continue reading Pop-Tart Quest: Strawberry Milkshake

Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings Review

Okay. Okay, okay. I am more calm than I was when I wrote that review *checks clock* 15 minutes ago. Let’s look at this more rationally and critically. Guys, this movie is truly amazing. Just… I’m still floored. I want to turn around and go watch it again. Okay, it turns out I am really bad at objectivity. I am also saying “Okay” a LOT. … Continue reading Shang-Chi And The Legend Of The Ten Rings Review

Stew’s Reviews: The Brave & The Bold

Welcome back to Stew’s Reviews! Devotees will know that it was only a few weeks ago that we were talking Green Lanterns (The War of the Green Lanterns, specifically), and fate has steered us back towards the chartreuse champion as we dig into a six issue miniseries for the second week in a row (this one ends, though, don’t worry!), DC’s The Brave and the Bold. No … Continue reading Stew’s Reviews: The Brave & The Bold
