Back to a Galaxy long ago…Star Wars: Dark Droids Review

Can a galaxy full of trusted droids suddenly become the greatest threat of all? Star Wars: Dark Droids takes a surprisingly creepy dive into horror, delivering corrupted machines, plenty of action, and a heartfelt story centred on Lando and Lobot. While it may not leave a lasting mark on the wider Star Wars universe, it's an entertaining crossover with fantastic artwork and a premise that's hard to resist.

I Read Hellboy Out of Order... It's Working. Hellboy: The Crooked Man and Others – Review

I still haven't figured out the "correct" order to read Hellboy... and after finishing The Crooked Man and Others, I'm not convinced there is one. Appalachian witches, ghost pirates, ancient gods and some of the creepiest folklore I've read in comics make this an easy recommendation. It also gave me a notebook full of ideas for Sector 102—which is probably the highest compliment I can give it.

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.

I Read Hellboy Out of Order... It's Working. | Hellboy and the B.P.R.D. 1953

Before I knew it, I'd accidentally started reading Hellboy completely out of order—and somehow, it might be the best way to experience the Mignolaverse. Hellboy and the B.P.R.D. 1953 drops Big Red into a series of folklore-fueled cases packed with monsters, myths, and just enough dry humour to keep things from getting too grim. If you're wondering whether you need to read Hellboy chronologically, my answer is becoming a very enthusiastic... maybe not.

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.

Chilling Out with Marvel’s Alien: Thaw

Just finished Alien: Thaw, and now I’m officially shook.

A frozen moon, a brilliant-but-driven scientist mom, and something very wrong lurking beneath the ice. When that something thaws, it’s not springtime — it’s pure nightmare. Written by Declan Shalvey, drawn by Andrea Broccardo.

If you love gothic sci-fi horror and aren’t afraid of xenomorphs, this is a Must Read.
