I guess since it's Halloween, I should look at a horror movie. And since we're in the middle of a pandemic, I guess I should look at a pandemic horror movie? It Comes At Night is an A24 release and that alone is what drew me to the film because everything I've seen from the …

Classic G.I. Joe Vol. 2
Oh boy, did this get better. Not that volume 1 of the Marvel G.I. Joe series was complete crap or anything, but it suffered from the adjustment pains that a number of series can go through when they start, whether it be comic books or TV series (seriously, have you seen how many series are …
Star Trek (1st DC Series) Annuals #1, 2
Annuals can always be hard to place when you're trying to organize your comics. In some cases, they wind up being the end of a major storyline in your series--like the three New Teen Titans annuals that acted as "season finales" for that year's stories. Other times, they are part of crossover events and you …
Star Trek (1st DC Series) #17-30
With the new movie a good year away and our favorite characters having made their way through both the wonderful Mirror Universe Saga as well as some other adventures, the cast is still on the Excelsior and on their mission to "test the ship out", which gives us a chance to see several smaller adventures …
Star Trek (1st DC Series) #9-16
Now, as anyone who has seen the original crew films knows, the Enterprise was destroyed in Star Trek III and the crew spent the next several months in exile on Vulcan, which is where we see them at the beginning of Star Trek IV. However, there are two years between those movies and in 1984, …
Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (DC Comics) #1
When it comes to franchise films, I think that Star Trek III: The Search for Spock had one of the hardest jobs of the 1980s. The first film, while an underrated gem, didn't have the best reputation after its release--it wasn't a flop per se but it also wasn't Superman or Star Wars--and therefore The …

Star Trek (1st DC Series) #5-8
You know, when it comes to the movies, Lt. Saavik is one of my favorite characters and I was always kind of disappointed that they left her on Vulcan at the beginning of Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home. Don't get me wrong--I understand the need for that film to have a total "original crew" …
Star Trek (1st DC Series) #1-4
After a lackluster post-TMP ride through the 23rd century courtesy of Marvel and a similarly disappointing adaptation of TWOK via IDW, I probably shouldn't have much hope for any Star Trek comic. But the reputation of this first DC series has always been a good one, and I've even heard things along the line of …
