Murder Podcast #7 lays all of the cards on the table & pulls back the curtain as to what’s going on

Posted on by

Flash back as Vivi Su and Gina Kyle head to Bethlem, Missouri, to investigate the murder of Audrey Penn for their podcast “Dead Sounds.” What they find in the small rural town is far more disturbing than they could have ever imagined, and their meddling will set off a deadly chain of events that will reverberate all the way to Seattle and beyond, leaving a trail of bodies as it goes.

Arcadia #5 has interesting aspects but doesn’t hit the emotional moments like it intends to

Posted on by

Rouke has promised to show Halu and Fix the way to Arcadia, but the road to utopia is far from easy. From apocalyptic weather to deadly robot hunters roaming hostile towns, it feels like everything is conspiring to keep them from their destination. Perhaps worst of all, though, is when Rouke’s past catches up with him and a gang of scurrilous bikers comes looking to collect a debt.

Farklar the Fleshless is back, and the eons in exile have made him even more determined and powerful. Dex and Jan Savage are the warriors who banished him from this earthly plane the first time, but time still takes its toll, even on eternal warriors. Centuries with no mortal enemies to test their mettle have made them soft, and if they can’t beat Farklar, the consequences will be deadly. Not to mention, Farklar will enslave the whole world!

Innards #1 has a solid concept and some interesting art. A fun debut that has us coming back

Posted on by

It’s Roy Wilder’s first day on the most dangerous job in the world.

After a catastrophic nuclear attack, humanity’s last energy source is Lucifium. The mineral, buried miles beneath Earth’s surface, is accessible only by teleportation and navigation through an inhospitable subterranean maze.

The motley brotherhood of “divers” employed by the ONIS corporation gambles their bodies and minds in pursuit of a better future for themselves and their loved ones. The high-risk, high-reward mission attracts the daring and desperate alike, and all must be unflinching to survive under the leadership of grizzled rig boss Jax Ridley. But even the boldest will break when Roy’s initiation cracks the seal on a harrowing corporate secret… and the depths come alive to awaken the crew’s inner demons.

Showdown #1 is a solid debut with a simple concept that allows it to focus on its characters

Some things you just can’t get over.

When Trish Sullivan left her hometown for college, she left behind unfinished business. Now she’s back and looking to settle up.

Trish blames Harvey Harlowe for the death of her little brother, so Trish’s homecoming is an eye-for-an-eye mission. She’s going to kill him, and Harvey should get his affairs in order.

But Harvey’s dad has just died, and an injury destroyed his football scholarship. Without a future ahead of him, Trish’s challenge is all the more welcome. He’s more than ready to go down fighting, and no one is going to step in and save him.
