At least, she is in the fairytale inspired novel Cinder by Marissa Meyer. When I picked up this book I figured it was going to be your usual fairy tale adaptation. They are pretty common these days. Once Upon A Time on ABC does it with a campy, family friendly flare that’s really gotten […]
Bates Motel: First You Dream, Then You Die Recap
The second of three serial killer-related programs beginning this year and the first of two based on previously established stories, Bates Motel is a modern day prequel to the film Psycho. This works because Psycho is a story that ages well. It doesn’t really matter what era Norman Bates grew […]
Ashes, Ashes We All Fall Down…
Everyone knows that fast moving zombies are the most terrifying of all the zombies. I don’t think we quite realized that, though, until the Dawn of the dead remake came out and introduced us to those most terrifying of creatures. And then 28 Days Later came. Then 28 Weeks Later. […]
Hawken: Genesis Expands on the Mythos of Hawken
Before I recieved an early copy of Archaia Entertainment’s complete graphic novel, Hawken: Genesis, I had never even heard of Hawken. Which is probably a bit sad and loses me some nerd cred because apparently Hawken is a thing that I should have known about. Forbes wrote about it! A couple of […]
The Walking Dead: Prey Recap
It’s apparently flashback Sunday! Not only did Once Upon A Time feature a bunch of flashbacks to the early days of Storybrooke but The Walking Dead begins with a flashback to Michonne and Andrea’s days together. Except it’s not really a nice, happy flashback because this is the Walking Dead […]

Dial H for…
Any schmuck can be a superhero? That sounds nice and all but does anyone really believe it? Heck no. There’s no way that my fat ass is going to be running around saving the world from super villains. If I could I totally would. But unless we’re talking Butterball from the […]
Toyland Has Fallen Into Chaos
Every child wonders what happens to their toys when he or she leaves the room or they are all put away in the toy box. Do they come alive? Do they dream? Do they have any number of wild adventures? We encourage children to think this. In A Little […]
Judge Dredd: Volume 1 TPB Hits Shelves April 30th
I am going to be honest here. I am among the newer fans of the Judge Dredd franchise. I think I saw the original film back when I was a kid but I don’t actually remember seeing it. So for me Karl Urban is Judge Dredd and I am going […]
Superman: Secret Identity Returns As A Trade Paperback this April!
I love comic books. Most people who know me know that I can go on and on about characters and their stories. So you should put a lot of weight in to what I am about to say. Hands down, this is my favorite DC comic ever. You don’t need […]
