SGT Rock VS The Army of the Dead....4 Stars.


SGT ROCK VS. The Army of the Dead




For those of you who are not aware of who the writer Bruce Campbell is, and why he is popular, here's an introduction. (I would post the actual video, but blogspot's selection has become so poor)

I'm an Evil Dead fanboy, so it's hard for me to be objective about this, but... 

With World War 2 getting farther and farther away, and with young American carrying tiki torches in Charlottesville, I was starting to get worried that America had forgotten who the real enemy to Western Civilization is, but Bruce Campbell hasn't, he knows what it is.....Nazis! That's right, but not any old swastika wearing Nazi bums, but zombies Nazi's! so SGT Rock and Easy Company are in for quite the fight. 

It's great to see an outside writer come in who has the popularity to drag any characters out of obscurity, so I am more than delighted that SGT Rock is getting some print time....my only wish being, that Hitler takes a bullet between the eyes!

4 stars out of 5

Aquamen #1.... 3 Stars

  Aquamen #1 First off I hate the name. There technically should only be one Aquaman, and as one of DC comics big six heroes he should be headlining his own title, both for marketing and brand reasons.  However let's address the elephant in the room. It's long since been believed that DC feels there is a lack of racial diversity in their titles (This is an indisputable fact), and that they've been planning to rectify this by replacing current white male heroes. (There is evidence to validate this line of thinking, ie Firestorm, Atom, Mr. Miracle, Blue Beetle/The Question, but a lot of it is speculative as well)  At any right, I would have preferred at the very least Aquaman and Aqualad as the title, as we've already seen what happens to comic sales when you have a partitioned fanbase preferring one of the two Flash's, Firestorm's or six of the Green Lantern's, so you can imagine what will happen to Aquaman sales once one is headlining and the other is not.

Aquamen #2..... 2.5.... stars

  Aquamen: Issue 2 It's no secret that both DC and Marvel have been taken to the woodshed by Scholastic and Manga of late, when it comes to selling comics or graphic novels that are marketed towards pre teen and teen readers, but here at least, is one area where DC is outselling Marvel. When one reads Aquamen 2, one gets the sense that the writing is targeted for younger teenage readers, which in theory isn't a bad thing, except one major problem... Aquamen is designated for the direct market, and I'm unaware of where comics can be bought for younger readers these days outside of comic stores, for the days of finding a plethora of comics on the twirling magazine racks at your corner store is long gone, so I'm not sure how much of these printed issues are going to get in the hands of 12 years olds, which brings us to problem two.... It is clear that the narrative resolves around Jackson Hyde as opposed to Arthur, but the problem with this is,  unless you've been tuni

Tim Drake Robin #1....3 Stars

Tim Drake Robin # 1                                                    No I'm not going to give this 1 star, like a lot of comic fans would like me to do, but I do sympathize with Tim Drake fans. Having one of your favourite heroes continuity changed for the sake of gender politics, and then tossed to a writer who has a non conventional writing style, only to be called a bigot on reddit or comic forums when you protest, is a really shitty thing for DC to do to Tim Drake fans. I was never a Tim Drake fan, by the time the  90's were in full swing I was done with sidekicks, but I always recognized he was an extremely popular character. Not many titles reach 50 issues let alone 183! Which is what the Robin title reached under Tim Drake, so you think that DC would clue in and realize that there was a big market out there for another Tim Drake run, but DC never learns do they. They still think that comics is primarily a demographically transitory hobby, and that they can make full sc
