I don’t have it in me to be that honorable–not for two and a half years. I would have just found myself a plot of land a worked it or slept on it. Well, I wouldn’t have been a samurai in the first place. I’ve heard of the story, but never experienced any of its […]
I finally finished this series! It was good and held my attention all the way through. Most of what I wrote about the first volume held out until the end. However, I wasn’t too keen on that very last encounter–it rang false. Well, maybe not false, but unimaginative and limited in scope. I think I […]
He’s a brand specialist at a department store and this job that begins with a love for fashion comes to an end in a blaze of stress, unbecoming behavior and paranoia. Throughout his telling of this stop-over period in his life, we learn about his passion for comics and struggles with relationships. But all is […]
Just happened to see the cover in comiXology’s sale and thought it seemed familiar. I searched my blog to see if I wrote anything about, and I did. I completely forgot I was supposed to be keeping an eye out for it. This collection includes the first six issues. I’m happy to report that it […]
It does what it reads on the tin. Sanity (red jumper) and Tallulah (yellow jumper) are, in fact, plucky teen girls who–one a bit more than the other–fancy themselves detectives of a sort in the star-spangled, asteroid and refuse-populated bluey-blackness of space. Sanity is the more for-the-benefit-of-science-minded voice of sound reason, while Tallulah is the […]
Shelley’s going through some things and rather than consult with her parents to suggest counselling, her school’s principle asks a student in her class to befriend her because she’s vulnerable. …Okay, I guess. So, Ryan, the student, and Shelley don’t seem to hate each other and she’s seems marginally receptive to his presence so, they […]
New parents, newly wed, new way of life. The only thing that isn’t new is the war that’s going on. Alana and Marko and baby makes three are on the run. He was a prisoner and she was a guard; he’s optimistic and she’s frank; he’s from Wreath, a moon and she’s from Landfall, a […]
To go from thinking something is wrong with you all of your life to one day finding other people like you, you’d definitely lose it a little more that you thought you already had. But this is not Xavier’s School for Gifted Youngsters. This is a motley crew of folks of questionable morals, or at […]
It ended up being a pretty decent story about letting go and moving on, but unfortunately what stood out most to me was “bitches,” “slut,” “ho-bags,” “douchebags,” “skank,” and “cray-cray,” I can only think of how out of place some of them seemed; how uncomfortable some of them made me; and how annoyed I was by the rest. But I […]
A virus is wiping out the planet’s population. A select portion of the population is to be sequestered to be frozen for three years to survive the virus’ run. Javier, 19, gets randomly selected by some big wig at his company to take his place. When they awake, they’re not sure what year it is, […]
