‘Daredevil #12’ (review) at Forces of Geek

‘Wonder Woman #79’ (review) at Forces of Geek

The most frustrating part of double shipping is we have gone beyond one artist per book for scheduling.

Wonder Woman #79 continues along this path, and so far the wheels are attached to the wagon, but top tier books always have the priority for top tier artists, but at what cost?

‘Downton Abbey’ (film review, 2019) at Forces Of Geek

‘Downton Abbey’ (film review, 2019) at Forces Of Geek

The film expansion of Downton Abbey starts nearly after we left the Crawleys in July of 1927. Rarely does a series, British or American, jump from the small screen to the big and the challenges of storytelling in both mediums are quite different. Without the luxury of an episodic return, the film must resolve itself by the end, and I am pleased to say that this one does.

‘G.I. Joe #1’ (written by Paul Allor - review) at Forces of Geek

As one gets with ‘your favorite thing’, when a new edition comes out, you approach skeptical by nature, speculate on merits, and if you have a generous heart and mind, you ‘give it a shot’ at least. Star Wars, Star Trek, Mad Max, whatever it is that floats your boat, you hope the new folks don’t muck it up too badly.
