War Movies Month 1 – 1917

Posted on November 6, 2022 by healed1337

Pretty Deadly 10 review

Posted on June 22, 2016 by healed1337

Two of Kelly Sue DeConnick’s creator-owned comics released today, this and Bitch Planet 8. While Bitch Planet is a good series about non-compliant women in prison with heavy anti-sexism themes, I find it more enjoyable to talk about Pretty Deadly. … Continue reading →

Marvel needs to spread out their titles better. Most of their X-Men team books seem to release on the same week, while All-New Wolverine and Old Man Logan always seem to release on the same week. Meanwhile only a few … Continue reading →

Pretty Deadly 9 review

Posted on April 13, 2016 by healed1337

As much as the Pretty Deadly series is so deep and dense with its mythology and poetry that the first arc needs several readings to understand, the second arc has been simpler for the most part. The story is a … Continue reading →

Usually the last week of the month is my small week for comic pickups, especially when it’s like last month where there are 5 Wednesdays. Looking ahead, it looks like this month is the opposite. Last week was pretty small, … Continue reading →

Pretty Deadly 8 review

Posted on February 3, 2016 by healed1337

Considering how complex the first volume of Pretty Deadly is, it’s interesting to see how much more straight forward the second arc is. That’s not to say there isn’t anything behind the surface that you don’t notice the first time … Continue reading →

Pretty Deadly 7 review

Posted on December 23, 2015 by healed1337

Pretty Deadly is an unusual comic to say the least. It’s not just that each issue greatly benefits from multiple readings. It’s not that it somehow combines a western, mythology, fairy tale and poetry (and in issue 6 and 7, … Continue reading →

Posted on November 18, 2015 by healed1337

It’s been a year and a half since the last issue of Pretty Deadly. This creator-owned series by writer Kelly Sue DeConnick and artist Emma Rios is a blend of western, mythology, fairy tale and song, in a way that’s … Continue reading →
