Sam enjoyed both of her offerings from BOOM! Studios this week, Giant Days, which is coming to the end of freshman year for all of the girls, and The Woods, which provided… some answers, kind of. Mystery Girl from Dark Horse doesn’t hold a lot of suspense for Kylee, knowing that the […]
Supergirl: Bizarro Recap
Synopsis: An inexplicable Supergirl clone appears in National City, and Kara goes on a date. Rating: ????? One of my favorite things about Supergirl, is that literally everyone loves Kara? Her adopted family took to her immediately, Clark Kent has been nothing but supportive from the jump, James and Winn practically fall at […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – January 27, 2016
Kylee is lamenting the penultimate issue of Past Aways, which has become pull-no-punches in exploring the team dynamics. DC Comics knocked it out of the park for Jackson with The Omega Men and Grayson, with Marvel not too far behind, even if there are hints of re-tread, in Daredevil. And, sadly, Sam’s computer is […]
Supergirl: Strange Visitor From Another Planet Recap
Synopsis: Cat’s estranged son comes to town, and the White Martians attack. Rating: ★★★★☆ This was simultaneously the most deeply emotional and nerdiest episode of TV I’ve seen in awhile. The sweeping thematic arcs of how important family is, how impossible it is to take on any huge task alone, and […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – January 20, 2016
This week, Sam continues with Nerdophiles-favorite Lumberjanes, from BOOM! Studios.

Check out all of our reviews below and let us know what […]
Supergirl: Childish Things Recap
Synopsis: Winn’s father breaks out of prison and comes after him, while Alex must get dangerously close to Max Lord, and Lucy Lane takes a job at CatCo. Rating: ★★★★★ This was, by far, the darkest episode of Supergirl to date. The opening sequence shows us two prison guards complaining about how […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – January 13, 2016
This week, Sam finished John Flood, with hopes of more from the series in the future, and is starting to get lost with Lantern City, both from BOOM! Studios. Kylee took a look at Gutter Magic, one of the latest print offerings from Comics Experience, with the help of IDW Publishing, and […]
Supergirl: Blood Bonds Recap
Synopsis: Kara must convince Cat she is not Supergirl, while the DEO tries to rescue Hank. Meanwhile, James and Winn break into Lord Technologies. Rating: ★★★☆☆ A thing about Supergirl that is unfortunate, but also to its benefit, is that the bigger arcs and the underlying mythology of the show are its […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – December 30, 2015
We’re closing out this year with Kylee and Jackson checking out comics from BOOM! Studios and DC Comics. Kylee is still enjoying the four-issue run of Last Sons of America, while Jackson is finding faults with both Wonder Woman and Justice League. Check out all of our reviews below and let us […]
The #NerdsRead Pull List – December 23, 2015
Sam was, unfortunately, underwhelmed by the first issue of Venus from BOOM! Studios, but Kylee is still loudly and belligerently singing the praises of Arcadia in this week’s pull list. She is also lamenting the potential end of The Paybacks from Dark Horse, while simultaneously wishing someone would put her and Fight Club 2 out […]
