Far Sector Review (NK Jemisin, Jamal Campbell)


The City Enduring has a population of 20 billion people, all of whose emotions are suppressed by a biocybernetic virus called the Emotion Exploit, in order for the city’s three different alien races to live in peace and harmony. Except it turns out that more and more of its citizens are using an illegal drug called Switchoff that, you got it, switches off the Emotion Exploit which leads to conflict between the races and the city’s first murder in 500 years. Unsure of how to deal with it, the City Enduring’s Council reaches out to the Guardians who dispatch a Green Lantern to the furthest of their sectors to investigate.

Cave Carson Has a Cybernetic Eye, Volume 1: Going Underground Review (Gerard Way, Jon Rivera)


Hey, did you know Cave Carson has a cybernetic eye? Who fucking cares?! Certainly not me after reading this shit! 

If his abysmal Doom Patrol series didn’t underline it enough for me, Cave Carson has driven home the point that Gerard Way hasn’t the first clue how to write a decent comic. And let’s not forget his co-writer, Jon Rivera. Two Grant Morrison fanboys who desperately wish they were half as talented as him and demonstrably aren’t even close. I mean, this is straight up incompetent storytelling from first page to last.

Doom Patrol, Volume 1: Brick by Brick Review (Gerard Way, Nick Derington)


An enchanted colostomy bag belches into existence The Bliznar, an anthropomorphic multi-gender entity whose left testicle is running for Mayor of Kandahar and who wants to write this year’s Christmas No. 1 jig. But a ragtag team of anti-hero pro-superhero anti-hairdressers called Bloom 50 Squad have to lose the intergalactic atomic race and lock up the evil Princess Bitchtacular before the FixFaxes obliterate the comics universe of the 12th Dimension! Better gwant up the pooble before sippy revs the teeser!
