Comic Review // Star Wars: War of the Bounty Hunters

Classic Peps move… pick up a Star Wars comic from the library and only realise afterwards that I've jumped into the middle of the bloody series! But you know what? I bloody loved it.

War of the Bounty Hunters gave me Boba Fett, Han Solo, bounty hunters, Luke struggling with his past, and a surprisingly great Leia and Lando story.

Comic Review // Petrol Head — Speed, Steel, and the Heart of a Dying World

Petrol Head is a loud, colourful, high-octane blast of sci-fi fun. Packed with robots, racing, explosions and a surprisingly emotional story, this comic delivers far more than I expected. The artwork is fantastic, the world is wonderfully bonkers, and underneath all that speed is a story about survival, humanity and what happens when technology outlives its purpose. A seriously fun read and one I’m very glad I took for a spin.

Comic Review // Judge Dredd: Titan

Warning: Dredd timeline anomaly detected! 🚨 I know I'm supposed to be reading Judge Dredd in order, but Titan landed in my collection and I couldn't resist. Ex-Judges, Wally Squad, Space Corps, aliens, Dirty Frank and a Dredd who suddenly feels a whole lot older... this one had everything I love about the Dreddverse. And, naturally, it's given me far too many ideas for Sector 102. Dive into my latest review and see why I couldn't put this one down!

Comic Review // Judge Dredd: The Cape and Cowl Crimes

What happens when superheroes decide to fight crime in Mega-City One? Judge Dredd isn't impressed! The Cape and Cowl Crimes throws Dredd into a world of wannabe heroes, Kleggs, bat-gliders, vigilantes and some wonderfully ridiculous comic-book chaos. I picked this one up from my local library and settled in for an evening of Dredd—and while it wasn't perfect, there are some seriously fun stories hiding inside. Come see which ones hit the mark... and which ones deserved a sentence!

Comic Review // Predator vs. Black Panther

Some comics are simply fun to read. Others leave your imagination running wild long after you've closed the final page. Predator vs. Black Panther did exactly that for me. With stunning artwork, an entertaining crossover, and enough inspiration to send my mind racing with ideas for Sector 102, this was a comic that delivered on every level. Here's why it might just have inspired my next great monster.

I Read Hellboy Out of Order... It's Working: The Silver Lantern Club Review

I'm still reading Hellboy completely out of order... and somehow it keeps getting better. The Silver Lantern Club swaps Big Red for ghost stories, occult investigators, and one of the most intriguing secret societies I've come across in the Mignolaverse. It might just be my favourite stop on this wonderfully backwards reading journey yet.

Young Hellboy: The Hidden Land – Adventures Begin

Young Hellboy: The Hidden Land is a wonderfully fun pulp adventure packed with hidden ruins, ancient monsters, vampires, and forgotten mythology. Seeing a younger, more curious Hellboy alongside Professor Bruttenholm is an absolute delight, while Scarlett Santiago makes an excellent addition to the growing Hellboy universe. Charming, mysterious, and full of adventure, this is another reminder of why I keep coming back to Mike Mignola's world.

Falling Face-First into Alien: Black, White & Blood – Treasury Edition

Falling Face-First into Alien: Black, White & Blood – Treasury Edition

The Alien: Black, White & Blood – Treasury Edition is a stripped-back nightmare that proves you don’t need colour to feel terror. Through three brutal, beautifully illustrated stories, this collection leans into shadow, silence, and splashes of blood (with an unsettling hint of green) to explore humanity, arrogance, and survival in a universe that does not care. Smart, savage, and dripping with atmosphere, this is Alien at its most raw, and I loved every horrifying page.

Predator Omnibus Vol. 1 — Welcome to the Hunt!

Time to lock and load. I’m diving headfirst into the Predator comics! Instead of marathoning all the Dark Horse series at once (I’ve learned my lesson from Aliens), I’m alternating between Dredd and Predator for the next few reviews. First up: a 400+ page beast of a book where skulls are trophies and survival is optional.

Comic Review // Alien vs Predator: Thrill of the Hunt

Aliens vs. Predator. The title alone promises claws, mandibles, and blood-soaked chaos, right? Sadly, Thrill of the Hunt delivers more of a whimper than a roar. With artwork that feels stuck in the 80s and a story that barely lets the monsters fight, this graphic novel left me wondering why I didn’t just… watch paint dry instead. Curious? Dive into my full review to see why this one misses the mark.
