ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK

Less a review of ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK and more an appreciation.

CLOVERFIELD: BLACK METALLIC ROAR

CLOVERFIELD vs. Highway 62. WHO WILL BE LEFT STANDING?

QUARANTINE – yes, I finished it.

QUARANTINE sets up nicely but doesn’t quite get it together.

Full Bleed 11

Full Bleed 11 Matt vs. THE BLACK DOSSIER.

Some recent reads

HELLBLAZER 230/231 – At least I think that’s the numbers. Who really pays attention to the numbers, anyways? Anyway, if Andy Diggle were here, I’d plant a wet one right on his kisser. Or at the least buy him a drink. Why? Because Diggle has given us back our dear old Constantine. Instead of being [...]
