Quick Reviews for People with No Patience
Hey, kids! Who’s tired of doing long reviews of comics? Look around, see if you can find him! Wait, wait, there he is! That’s right — it’s me! So let’s do fast reviews of everything I’ve got left over!
B.P.R.D.: Killing Ground #2
Horrifically scarred tough-guy Ben Daimo summons a mystical Chinese mystic-guy, just in time for the guy to get eaten by a rampaging wendigo! Johann Kraus goes AWOL with his big, bad, hungry, horny body! Liz Sherman sees horrific visions of the end of the world!
Verdict: Thumbs up! Creepy stuff, gross stuff, more scary stuff on the way! Woo!
The Trials of Shazam #8
Atlas is a god who’s wired into the whole world, and he makes tiny minor changes to stave off major disasters. And someone just killed him! So Freddy Freeman has to fill in for him briefly, then Captain Marvel takes over, and then Freddy goes to fetch Atlas’ replacement, the god Apollo, who’s given up godhood to be a doctor. But Apollo don’t wanna be a god, and he’s willing to kill to stay normal.
Verdict: Thumbs up. Not bad. But with four issues left, they better start wrapping stuff up fast.
Shadowpact #17
Lots of stuff happens, and I can’t be bothered to care.
Verdict: Thumbs down. Boooooring.
And now, to fill a bit more space: A picture you will never be able to un-see!
