It’s a pretty laid back week for us here at Nerdophiles as far as comics go. Don’t worry, though. Things are going to be picking up soon as some new, awesome series hit the shelves in the next couple of months. Hopefully your New Comic Book Day hauls were bigger […]

The #NerdsRead Pull List – December 16, 2015
The Ultimate End ultimately disappoints in this week’s #NerdsRead pull list. It’s an unfortunate swan song for an alternate universe that was once full of promise. Meanwhile The Goddamned shocks and awes. Need something a bit more lighthearted, though? The Lumberjanes start off on a new adventure with brand new, […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – October 21, 2015
With just a couple issues left, it looks like The Fade Out is promising to end strong. Meanwhile The Paybacks is continuing on to become a pretty great book even just two weeks in. Teen Titans, though, hits a low note and Giant Days fails to be anything but average. […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – August 26, 2015
This week in the #NerdsRead Pull List… disappointment! And awesomeness, too. No joke, folks, both of our lists are entirely polarized. On one hand we both have a great issue from a resoundingly great series. Then, on the other, we have a disappointing issue of a series we initially embraced […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – August 19, 2015

There’s a lot of really great series starting up this fall, though, and […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – June 17, 2015
One of our slower weeks for comics here at Nerdophiles, but we did happen to enjoy most of the series we read this week immensely! Heavily BOOM! Studios focused this week, Giant Days is only getting better, afforded more time with an expanded order for issues. Lumberjanes will never disappoint us – though, Oh, […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – May 13, 2015
Dark Horse and Archaia both launched some pretty awesome new series this week. Harrow County blends Southern gothic with fairy tales and horror, while Lantern City has something for the steampunk fans among us. Meanwhile some other favorites are trucking along. Here’s our weekly pull list. What did yours look […]
