‘Assassin’s Creed: Templars #7’ Review

by Dean Fuller

Written by Dennis Calero | Art by Dennis Calero | Published by Titan Comics I like the way that although this second story arc for the book, ‘Cross of War’, is obviously it’s own animal, it has directly come out of the groundwork laid in that first 5 issue arc introducing the Black Cross. The […]

‘Lock the Doors’ Review (Black Lava)

by Mondo Squallido

“Trügerische Sicherheit”

 When it comes to splatter and gore, there’s one country that is infamous for it’s underground scene: Germany. I’m guessing that if you’re a cult film fan, you may have sat through a couple. Whether you like them or not, visionaries like Jörg Buttgereit (Nekromantik), Andreas Schnaas (Violent Shit) and Olaf Ittenbach (The […]

‘Batman: The Telltale Series – Episode 3’ Review

by Paul Metcalf

When a story reaches its mid-point there is a danger that the excitement will lull a little, until of course it again picks up pace. Telltale’s Batman Episode 3: New World Order is the third episode of Telltale’s take on Batman, with Bruce Wayne’s life descending into chaos, but strangely lacking in some of the […]

‘Doctor Who: The Twelfth Doctor #2.11’ Review

by Dean Fuller

Written by Robbie Morrison | Art by Mariano Laclaustra | Published by Titan Comics So just as I warm to a title I had previously been having a bit of a struggle getting into to, they change the creative team. Typical. If this is a good or bad move I will have to reserve judgement […]

‘Assassin’s Creed Last Decendants: Locus #3’ Review

by Dean Fuller

Written by Ian Edginton | Art by Caspar Wijngaard | Published by Titan Comics This series has been great fun through its first two issues, with an interesting scenario and cast, sparkling dialogue, and some fun little touches. Last issue we were left on quite the knife edge when the main character, Pinkerton agent Tommy […]

‘Billy Connolly: High Horse Tour Live’ Review

by Paul Metcalf

There are many comedians that spring to mind when you try to decide who are the funniest, but one of the most constant names to turn up on lists has to be Billy Connolly. We don’t tend to see much of his stand-up routines anymore, so when Billy Connolly: High Horse Tour Live was announced […]

‘Ash vs Evil Dead 2×07’ Review

by Paul Metcalf

If you are a Buffy fan you’ll remember the episode Normal Again. This episode featured Buffy drifting from two realities, one where she is in a mental asylum, the other the usual Buffy world we expect. This episode was haunting and left us wondering what the character’s reality truly was. Now Ash vs Evil Dead […]

‘Triggerman #1 and #2’ Review

by Dean Fuller

Written by Matz, Walter Hill | Art by Jef | Published by Titan Comics Who doesn’t like a little bit of noir and violent crime in their reading material? Certainly not me. Comics in the 1930’s in part sprang out of those old crime and noir pulps, so the genre has been tied to the […]

‘Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization’ Review (PS4)

by Paul Metcalf

When choosing games to play, the JRPG can be an odd one. They have a certain style to them that is easy to love, yet are unashamedly eccentric in nature. That being said, I find I don’t have the time to invest in them. When I had the chance to dive back into the genre […]
