I hadn’t been to the comic shop in a couple weeks with the unprecedented craziness that went down last week, but I did yesterday, and I caught up on my comic reading last night which was very fun. Here’s a little bit of what I’m reading and my thoughts on it: The Tick #2 by Cullen […]

The Super Hype Jon Del Arroz Book Of The Year
I read a lot of great books this year. It makes it exceedingly hard for me to choose one or even do a top five like I am prone to doing. Of course, then it’d be just as easy to name one of my own books as book of the year, I mean I am […]
Comic Review: Port Of Earth #1
Port Of Earth automatically made it to my excitement list when I saw the concept — aliens use water for fuel and made earth into a stopping point along their transit routes. They built a port, which is supposed to be away from human society and supposed to not have them interact with humans, in […]
Book Review: Dangerous Gamers
I don’t usually review too many non-fic books here (well I did Scott Adams), but I just read Dangerous Gamers: The Commentariat and it’s war against video games, imagination and fun. I have to say this is probably the most poignant and relevant analysis of our culture and it’s direction I’ve ever read. It goes […]
Ninja-K #1
The premise of this book is a relaunch (not retcon or reboot as it seems to follow the continuity and actually care about what Kindt delivered, actually referencing it in the script – which there’s a portion of in the Pre-Order edition I read), is someone’s going around killing all of the prior Ninja […]
Review: Win Bigly by Scott Adams
Win Bigly By Scott Adams As an author who enjoys the marketing aspects of my business, I am always hungry in good marketing strategies or psychological persuasion analysis. As such, I’ve been following Scott Adams for some time, as he’s been keen to talk about the topic. His citing of Robert Cialdini’s Influence only gave […]
Comic Review: Batman Dark Prince Charming
Batman Dark Prince Charming comes in a nice hardcover package – a bit small for the hardcover treatment and at a bit of a steep price point at $12.99 for what looks like a thin book. It doesn’t help the book comes shrink-wrapped so if you’re not in the know in having researched it, you […]
Review: Rocky Mountain Retribution by Peter Grant
Peter Grant’s Brings The Lightning was my favorite fiction work of 2016, so I was thrilled to see a sequel come out this year. The first story is one of travelling west, working hard, and persevering through all sorts of adversity. It’s really a testament to the American dream, perfect thematically for a western and […]
Praxis by Justin Knight
Last Friday, as I mentioned in my periscope earlier, we had a new science fiction novel come out by one Justin Knight, of which I had the privilege of reading an advance copy. Praxis is the story of a group of humans going to a mining colony for the first time, mostly focused on the […]
Comic Review: X-O Manowar #7
Aric has donned the X-O armor up to the shoulders now, and is regularly wearing it, despite the fact that he spends time talking to the armor and telling it how it is simply a tool (poor good skin!). He’s uncovered in quick fashion that the plot of the general to bring in this monolith […]
New Release Book: War Demons by Russell Newquist
I meant to blog about this on Wednesday but with how crazy this week has been, I didn’t quite get around to it. For those new here from the SFWA Anti-Male Writer controversy or #ComicGate, I try to make sure to keep people up date on fun fiction that’s politics-free in the market, as the […]
Comic Review: Bloodshot: Salvation #1
Bloodshot is a character from Valiant Comics who is kind of like a cross between Punisher and Wolverine. An experiment from a secret military organization, Bloodshot is infused with nanites that make him a killing machine and give him regeneration powers. This book continues with the feel of Bloodshot: Reborn, much more than the crazy/zany […]
