FORZA MOTORSPORT 6 [Early Review]: Metal Gear Superior.

Reading a Forza video game review is one of the most absurd, anticlimactic things you can do. You know it's going to be good. The question, then, becomes just HOW good... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CXqEHMgiFg You could be ever so kind to the Monsignor and keep reading, fellow geek-parishioners, or you can just take my word for it and …

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY [Series Premiere]: Alienbusters.

I’m an old person –- I freely admit it. I’m old enough to remember the period where everything cool was in cartoon form: X-Men (92-97), Beetlejuice (89-91), Ninja Turtles (87-96), and Ghostbusters (86-91).

MIRACLEMAN / DRIVE / MIRROR’s EDGE / DANGER GIRL / DEADPOOL vs. THANOS [Reviews]: Golden State Warriors.

And so we come to the golden age of Our Neil. As-quick-as-possible context-check since this issue for all intents and purposes is a straight-up reprint: Before Marvel finally started reprinting Miracleman, I had read the first half of the Moore run (but had no idea how it ended) and was therefore riveted to finally pick …

GHG Presents… THE WILD BRUNCH [Podcast, S01E04]: MEGALODINOMASAUR.

After a near 3.5-month layoff, The Wild Brunch Podcast is back! That can only mean more bacon, more movies, more eggs, more movies, and more damn bacon. Before our illustrious hosts, "Father" Joe Tower and "Vicar" Alex Gradet, move on to "Oscar season" with the likes of Black Mass, Sicario, Crimson Peak, The Hateful Eight, …
