Fire & Ice [Bottle Cap Review]
6 days ago
6 days ago
In 1983, Ralph Baksi's Fire and Ice dropped and it tells the story of an evil queen and her son, set on conquering the entire world shortly after the ice age.Against them, stands one man (and help, so clearly not 'just' one man) from a destroyed village who takes it back to the evil frozen empire in this rotoscope styled film. A little over 40 years later, how does this bad boy stand up to the test of time - and was Teegra's body all natural?? Those are the big questions here.

#87.0 - X-Men '97 [Epi 1-4]
Thursday Apr 11, 2024
Thursday Apr 11, 2024
Okay so..We were going to wait to do an episode on the entire series, but let's be real here: we love talking about X-Men (if the last 4 or 5 episodes weren't evidence enough of that). In the spirit of being the mutant FREAKS we are, here are the first 4 episodes of the new X-Men 97 series (that due to technical issues, is a week late #sorrynotsorry). We talk about the character arcs thus far, dive into each individual episode and what we like - and don't like - about the early goings of the series. Buckle up, bub.To me, my New Meatz and Sawft Cheezes.

#86 - X-Men TAS: One Big Saturday Morning
Thursday Mar 21, 2024
Thursday Mar 21, 2024
PREVIOUSLY, ON X-MEN...We had to. You know that we had to. Anyways, X-Men 97 premiered yesterday, but instead of covering the first two episodes of that series, we decided to revisit its origins: X-Men The Animated Series from the 90s.
What we didn't do is cover every single episode of all 5 seasons, but instead, we picked 17 episodes (a few from each season), to talk about and discuss. Are they our favourite episodes and arcs? Not necessarily, but they are all very memorable ones, and cover a lot of the popular points of interest the series had.
Please keep in mind that we have already covered the following arcs in older episodes:
The Phoenix Saga
The Dark Phoenix Saga
Beyond Good and Evil
In this episode, we will be covering:
Night of the Sentinels (S01E01-E02)
Deadly Reunions (S01E04)
Til Death Do Us Part (S02E01-02)
Red Dawn (S02E04)
Repo Man (S02E05)
Obsession (S03E09)
Savage Land, Strange Heart (S03E12-13)
Sanctuary (S04E03-04)
One Man’s Worth (S04E09-10)
Weapon X, Lies & Video Tapes (S04E16)
The Fifth Horseman (S05E05)
Graduation Day (S05E10)

Image Comics is about to enter the shared universe... universe. And Ghost Machine is the introduction to the first few characters that will be taking part in this world.
Dive in and check out the issue for the several stories that are here: post apocalyptic radioactive anti-heroes, farmers with animal controlling helmets, and a red coat who can't seem to die are just a few examples of what is to come with the new Ghost Machine universe.

If You Die In The Woods, Does Anybody Care? [Arc Analysis #74]
Thursday Mar 07, 2024
Thursday Mar 07, 2024
No, seriously. Ask yourself: "If you die in the woods, does anybody care?"This playfully dark book by Steve Steiner kinda explores this. Deep in the woods of Big Hole Park, people are going missing and it's up to the pair of rangers (and a lost infomercial host) to figure out who or what is murdering these hikers.. be it man OR beast.
It's either that or keep hiding the bodies themselves...

Thursday Jan 25, 2024
We came back for round 2 of Bitch Planet! If you know the first volume, then you know the premise of a prison planet that was built to house disobedient females away from the male-controlled Earth, and you also know about the cliffhanger vol 1 left us on. Well we couldn't sit with that nonsense, so we dived back in so we could find out how the second and final volume wraps up.

Locke & Key Vol 3: Crown of Shadows [Arc Analysis #71]
Friday Jan 12, 2024
Friday Jan 12, 2024
Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez created Locke and Key.
Coke and Dank now breakdown Locke and Key yet AGAIN!.
Volume 3 for this story of magical keys and family drama and deep, dark secrets. And we'll keep going too, because this story is too much of a fun, and unique ride. We're back with the Locke's and all the tragedy they have been facing, from the continued fallout of their dead father and alcoholic mother and all the trappings of high schoolers trying to make it their own way. Not to mention the magic keys... There are a lot of new ones introduced in this volume, more than the ones we've seen who can make your ghosts appear or show you what's inside of somebody else's mind.

Sink Vol 2: Blood & Rain [Arc Analysis #70]
Friday Dec 08, 2023
Friday Dec 08, 2023
Sink volume 1 hit us like a ton of bloody bricks. So we obviously couldn't wait too long for the follow-up and hoo boy, if you enjoyed the first chapter as much as we did, this is a must read. It picks up right after the events in the first book, and also acts as a way to bring multiple characters and arcs together in an even tighter way. It's a culmination of events in this wild, violent universe. Welcome to Glasgow, the forecast is Blood & Rain.
