Comic review: shutter #3- animals are people too

Comic Review: Shutter #3- Animals Are People Too

With every issue of Shutter comes the overwhelming feeling that confusion is not only part of the deal, but an integral piece of the puzzle. That should be a negative, but with this team behind it, it really shouldn’t be any other way. Am I talking in riddles? Probably. But then, everything in the Shutter…

Shutter Issue 2 is as beautiful as it is confusing and it’s really, really beautiful.

Deadpool Vs X-Force: Not Days Of Future Past

If you could take any ability from the X-Men, who’s would you take? Whatever you said is wrong. The correct answer is- You’d take Cable’s ability to travel through time, so that you could read the comic where he and Deadpool first meet.

Comic Review: Ghosted #8

Whoa….Whoa, just….whoa…. In the words of Ron Burgundy “That escalated quickly.” If there’s one thing I love to see more than Jackson Winters being punched in the face, it’s seeing him say something witty to someone who will punch him in the face. Issue 8 has enough of both. (Okay, technically no ‘punching’, but he…
