Let me just say, “when Mike James talks, listen.” Well that’s what Mike James would want me to say, but in this case, it’s totally valid. Last year Mike James (AKA Hyperbolic Mike) had the opportunity to see an early version of M Night Shyamalan’s After Earth. Mike wrote a preview warning Will Smith and M [...]

Columbia Welcomes You – Bioshock Infinite Review
April 25th, 2013 
Lasse No one in my network of friends was more excited for Bioshock Infinite than me.

I poured over forums, constantly harassed Ken [...]

COMIC REVIEW: Batman & Robin #15
December 14th, 2012 MitchNetzer This series continues to give the dark knight some heart by bringing Bruce Wayne’s son, Damian on board as the newest iteration of Robin.

COMIC REVIEW: Batman #15
December 13th, 2012 MitchNetzer Batman #15 by Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo This series has been by far the most action-packed and well-written in the New 52 DC line-up. Having followed Batz through the Court of Owls and now into the midst of the re-introduction of the Joker, this series has not rested in the slightest. It’s interesting to [...]

December 2nd, 2012 MitchNetzer FF #1 by Matt Fraction, Art & Cover by Michael Allred First things first, if you’re going to be reading FF then you need to be reading Fantastic Four since both stories work in tandem as each book tells one half of the whole story.

Comic Review – The Rocketeer: Cargo of Doom (4 Part Mini-Series)
December 1st, 2012 MitchNetzer The Rocketeer: Cargo of Doom (4 Part Mini-Series) by Mark Waid, Chris Samnee, Jordie Bellaire, Shawn Lee This 4-part mini-series was my first exposure to the Rocketeer outside of the classic 1991 film by Joe Johnston and it was JUST as amazing as the film.
