AP Productions: Formerly Known as Brain Boy #11

Best Laid Plans Ryan inhaled and leaned back in his chair, “So let’s see, when the aliens attacked, I learned that Rex Robinson, my own mentor and father figure was the cause of it, revealing himself to be a deeply troubled man, far more neurotic than anyone realized.

Jab’s Legion of Super-Heroes Reviews: Ferro Lad, Chemical King & Kid Psycho

And now- a trio of Legionnaires most iconic for DYING! FERRO LAD (Andrew Nolan, aka Ferro)Ferro Lad- The Legion’s Sacrifice:-Ferro Lad is one of those little hints that the Legion series, in spite of it’s goofiness, was a little more serious than many other books at the time. Where else could a team book actually have a character DIE in one of his first missions? This was … Continue reading Jab’s Legion of Super-Heroes Reviews: Ferro Lad, Chemical King & Kid Psycho

Stew’s Reviews: Street Fighter X GI Joe

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

American Werewolves 2: The Skinwalkers Review

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

Stew’s Reviews: Daredevil Yellow

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

Jab’s Legion of Super-Heroes Reviews: Brainiac 5 & Magno

BRAINIAC 5 (Querl Dox, aka Brainiac 5.1)Brainiac 5- The Most Important Legionnaire Ever:-There is absolutely NOBODY on this team who is more important that Querl Dox (notably, ALWAYS called “Brainy” or “Brainiac 5” in every issue I have featuring the character). Every single aspect of the team more or less depends on him. Brainiac 5 is a fascinating concept, and matters more to the Legion … Continue reading Jab’s Legion of Super-Heroes Reviews: Brainiac 5 & Magno

Stew’s Reviews: Battle of the Atom

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
