I'm doing two series in one entry because there were only three total comics for both of them: The H.A.R.D. Corps #16 and 21 and Magnus Robot Fighter #24. Plus, I have more to say about the latter than the former. I vaguely remember the H.A.R.D. Corps from the Deathmate crossover and I think the …

So this was a movie that I'd had in the queue for a couple of years because I'd seen a trailer for it on IMDb (as you do) and it looked like a good, creepy horror movie. The premise is that Will (Logan-Marshall Green) and his new girlfriend Kira (Emayatzy Corinealdi) are invited to a …
Maybe it's my love of Highlander, maybe it's because I liked him in the Valiant reboot The Valiant (which I have in trade), but I was looking forward to Eternal Warrior more than a number of the other series that I have already written about. The idea of an immortal who has longtime enemies and …
Does my '80s kid card get revoked if I tell you that I honestly cannot remember when I first saw this movie? I'm serious. This film came out on August 8, 1986 and I know I did not see it in the theater on opening weekend (more than likely, we were doing something centered around …
These two comics, Bloodshot #6 and 7, are a bit of a cheat because I had read them before. In fact, I brought #6 to an episode of "Back to the Bins" a number of years ago and we all more or less gave it a C. But I wanted to reread them because I was reading …
I've watched so many movies in the last few weeks of my summer break that I'm having problems keeping track of them all and I'm also having trouble keeping up with my mandate to review what I've been watching. So I decided that I'd do a post with quickie movie reviews. If I own the …
So the Valiant Universe seems to have been pretty tightly created from the get go, with the same villains showing up in different books and characters being related to one another in some way. From what I understand, there are three immortals walking around and they are brothers. One of them is the Eternal Warrior, …
The end of the big longbox of independent comics that I obtained for free a few years ago features a pile of books from one of the bigger indie publishers of the early 1990s, Valiant. Now, I've already looked at Image and did it all in one post because while I did get out of …
As always, let’s start with the numbers. Media consumed # (remaining/total) Movies Watched 23 (126/159) Books Read: 8 (107/152) Comics Read: 122 (347/742) Podcast Episodes Remaining: 179 WAIT A SECOND, THE TOTALS ALL WENT UP! HOW THE HELL DID THIS HAPPEN?! There's a reasonable explanation for this and I did not break any of my …
So this is the final entry in "Fighting the Independents", even though these aren't the last indie comics I'm going to read as part of this project. I'll get into what's up with that after I look at the individual comics, of which there are only five, all of which were FCBD grabs or free …
