Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2273 KP) rated Death by Pantyhose (A Jaine Austen Mystery, #6) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The sixth Jaine Austen mystery finds Jaine agreeing to write jokes for an unfunny stand-up comic. But before she can get started, the woman is arrested for murder. The weapon, a pair of pantyhose. Definitely for those who love funny mysteries, this one will keep you laughing while you puzzle over the clues.

Amazing writing style
Superheroes? Or villains?
Dark and delicious
Schwab does it again with a dark and delicious unique story.
If you like creepy superpowers and questioning morals this is for you!
I loved how it switched to different times, both past and present and between different characters backgrounds, all while not being confusing, to create a complete and interesting story.
I really wish it came with illustrations comic book style

Fun for new and old comic fans
This was such an awesome start to a new/reboot series. From start to finish I just found Vol.1 so much fun! The characters are all not only likeable but very relatable and that fact alone made this series one I couldn't put down.
This was also a great start for old school fans and new fans who wanted to try reading comics for the first time.

Jeremy King (346 KP) rated Bunraku (2011) in Movies

picked this movie up at for $2. The story line was not the greatest (2/5) but what got me to enjoy this movie was the sets and how the story was told. It was like watching a comic book like sin city with some cirque du soleil mixed in. So for style i give it 4/5.
If you watch this movie i suggest you do it for the style not the story line.

David McK (3496 KP) rated Star Wars Omnibus: X-Wing Rogue Squadron, Vol. 2 in Books
Jan 30, 2019
The second collection of X-Wing, this consists of the following stories:
1) X-Wing Rogue Squadron Special (basically a bit about Wedge's background and his influence on Rogue Squadron)
2) Battleground: Tatooine
3) The Warrior Princess
4) Requiem for a Rogue
Personally, however, none of the stories really seemed to hold my attention all that much: as a matter of taste, I think I still prefer a printed novel over a comic novel

The Craggus (360 KP) rated Bumblebee (2018) in Movies
Dec 21, 2018
Bumblebee (2018) is a once in a Gen-1 event: a good Transformers movie. #Review
It may seem something of an oxymoron, but “Bumblebee” is a genuinely good “Transformers” film. Now, I’m happy to admit I’m heavily biased, having grown up loving and watching and reading the Gen 1 toys, cartoon and Marvel comic series but my tinted glasses just make the rosy nostalgia of “Bumblebee” even rosier.

A worthy adaptation of an excellent comic
A really enjoyable, filthy, dark and funny series. Some excellent portrayals of really twisted characters and a great real world take on what would happen if superheroes were real. A number of liberties were taken (Hughie not being Scottish for one, Karl Urban's accent for another) but all in all a really brilliant TV show that ended too soon, but clearly has so much more to come.
