Dystopic Homesick Blues: Martha Washington

December 22, 2016 By Nick Hanover Leave a Comment

Martha Washington Frank Miller Dave Gibbons

I started this column figuring hoping I’d write entries in it building up to election day, then use it to look back at the reality we narrowly avoided. That didn’t exactly go as planned. Instead, I’ve had to come to grips with the fact that I now live in a dystopia and decide whether it’s […]

Kate Leth, Megan Levens Give Us the Start of a Satisfyingly Fun Romp with Spell on Wheels

October 20, 2016 By Elizabeth Brei Leave a Comment

Spell on Wheels

Spell on Wheels is like a dream for girls who grew up on Sabrina the Teenage Witch. It works especially well for girls like me who moved on to Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Regardless of the difference in tone and intention, both shows feature girls who suddenly find themselves with powers they don’t expect and […]

Despite Margaret Atwood’s Byline, Angel Catbird Falls Oddly Flat

September 8, 2016 By Elizabeth Brei Leave a Comment

Angel Catbird Johnnie Christmas Tamra Bonvillain Margaret Atwood

Margaret Atwood is old.

Being a Housewife Assassin Seems Boring in Lady Killer 2 #1

August 1, 2016 By Elizabeth Brei Leave a Comment

Lady Killer Joelle Jones

Lady Killer is a series built on one of my favorite concepts: women with immaculate makeup and giant heels murdering people (mostly men). Unfortunately, it is also a series falls back on using lazy assassin tropes. Josie, our heroine, becomes an apparent liability to her organization, due to her life as a housewife and mother, […]

January 6, 2016 By LoserCityBoss Leave a Comment

Best Comics of 2015
