Comic Review: Black Ghost Apple Factory
Black Ghost Apple Factory
Written and Drawn by Jeremy Tinder
Top Shelf Productions
Cover price: $5.00; Available now
Be warned, if you love apples you may not want to be made aware of where they really come from...
Black Ghost Apple Factory consists of seven short comic stories all written and drawn by Jeremy Tinder. The handwriting guidelines on the cover of the book, which Tinder does not follow, belies the mature tone of the stories in Black Ghost Apple Factory, all of which are about love and relationships. Is Tinder exposing himself when he anthropomorphizes, and robotpomorphizes, his feelings or is he making excuses for them? I wish I could blame my sudden lack of feelings for a woman on a "patch" I "downloaded."...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

DVD Review: Sydney White

Sydney White
Directed by Joe Nussbaum
Starring Amanda Bynes, Matt Long, Sara Paxton
Universal Studios Home Entertainment
Release date: Jan. 22, 2008
In this modern-day twist on the Snow White fairy tale, Amanda Bynes stars as the titular character, who's going off to college at Southern Atlantic University where she plans to pledge her deceased mom's sorority, Kappa Phi Nu. Since she was raised by her dad (Smallville's John Schneider) and the workers at his plumbing company, the beautiful Sydney is a bit of a tomboy and not well-versed in the sorority's prissy practices. (In lieu of party dresses, Sydney packs her suitcase with boarded and bagged comic books!)...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

Movie Review: The Eye
The Eye
Directed by David Moreau, Xavier Palud
Starring Jessica Alba, Alessandro Nivola, Parker Posey, Chloe Grace Moretz, Tamlyn Tomita
Rated PG-13
Release date: Feb 1, 2008
I actually requested this review during a phase I like to refer to as the "sign up for movies I don't want to see in an effort to challenge myself as a reviewer" phase. Or S.U.F.M.I.D.W.T.S.I.A.E.T.C.M.A.A.R for short. Right out of the gate, I had lowered expectations. Not bleak really, because I tried to keep an open mind, but lowered to say the least...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

Comic Review: Matthias Wolf's 'Unbeatable' TPB
Unbeatable TPB
Written & Created by Matthias Wolf
Art by Carlos Gomez
Colors by Simon Bork & Teodoro Gonzalez
Letters by Chris Studabaker
Razor Wolf Entertainment
Cover price: $14.95; Available now
One of the great things about being a reviewer -- no matter what you're reviewing -- is that it really forces you out of your comfort zone. It puts things in front of your eyes that perhaps you wouldn't normally give a look. Sometimes you go through it and realize that your instincts were right and whatever it was wasn't your cup 'o tea. But sometimes you find something fresh and new that makes you re-evaluate how you decide to look at things. For me, Unbeatable was the latter...continue reading this review at Geeks of Doom!

January 2008 Comic Pull Round-Up
January has been a slow month for me, comics-wise, so I’m combining a few weeks worth of books together. You should still be able to find any of these books at your local comics’ emporium. Enjoy!
Ultimates 3 #2
On the plus side, I found the art to be better in this issue. I don't know if it's just Joe Mad clearing out the cobwebs, or if the coloring didn't bother me as much this time, but I found the action easier to follow and felt like this was classic Joe. I can't say as much for the story or dialog, which were both pretty stupid. Hawkeye comes off as whiney and weak, and what should be his big emotional display while talking about his family rings hollow. Cap sounds like an idiot who would be behind the times in the 40's. Tony Stark isn't a lovable drunk anymore; he's just a regular drunk. The only one who comes off well this issue is the Wasp, but she seems more like the regular Marvel U version, and not her Ultimate self. The story stops and stalls, we still have no explanation who the Black Panther is and why he's hanging around, and the Brotherhood of Mutants show up for no good reason. I'm getting the feeling that this will be a lot of set up with little payoff. Not nearly as good as the Millar/Hitch run. On the plus side again, at least it's on time. ---2 out of 5
