‘Adventure Time: Sugary Shorts – Vol. 2′ Review

by Jack Kirby

I’ve waxed lyrical about the joys of the Adventure Time comics on numerous occasions, both on this website and to patient and unfortunate friends.

Graphic Novel Review: ‘The King in Yellow’

by Paul Metcalf

When it comes to horror especially in fiction I always find myself looking to H.P Lovecraft and Edgar Allen Poe at times because I like the way they take the normal things in life and pull the extraordinary into them, be it by the extraordinary or the morbid. When watching True Detective they introduced us […]
