Two Staple Gold: Adventures of Bayou Billy #1

  Video Game properties don't seem to translate well to other media. Full disclosure, I'm the furthest thing from a "Gamer" but I say this only because there has never been a single movie based on a game I've found enjoyable. As a kid in the 80's I was addicted...

IN DEFENSE OF ACTION COMICS #565

I’m going to start with a shameless plug for my show as this, after all is America. On my podcast I’m often referred to as the “Comics Curmudgeon”. Why? I like to think I’m soft, cuddly and ooze positive vibes but when it comes to reviews, I do tend to hand out more...
