Book Review – Nod by Adrian Barnes
Michelle Herbert reviews Nod by Adrian Barnes… With so many books to read, it has been a while since I have read such an intriguing idea regarding an apocalypse, Adrian Barnes’ novel Nod is ingenious in how real it feels, as it concerns itself with the breakdown of society meshed with the mental breakdown of […]
Video Game Review – Injustice 2 (Second Opinion)
Shaun Munro reviews Injustice 2… The fighting game is a genre forever at battle with itself; appeal too desperately to the casual crowd and the hardcore lot will deem it “dumbed down”, but targeting the competitive scene too aggressively risks losing mainstream appeal (looking at you, Street Fighter V).

Gotham Season 4 Episode 18 Review – ‘That’s Entertainment’
Martin Carr reviews the eighteenth episode of Gotham season 4… The League of Shadows, counter kidnapping, exploding heads and a kitsch musical homage with festival soundstage overtones help bring things to life this week. Monaghan chews up the screen, is given more time to hone his alter ego to unnerving affect, whilst pastiche drifts closer […]
Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 3 Episode 14 Review – ‘Watchdogs’
Danny Hale reviews the fourteenth episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 3… After the events of ‘Parting Shot’ it seems only appropriate to open this week with Mack on leave.
