Ricky Church reviews Optimus Prime Annual 2018… Its funny that considering this issue is the special annual for IDW’s Optimus Prime series, the title hero is only featured in one or two quick panels at the very beginning. The rest of the issue is devoted to Starscream and Thundercracker, taking place in between the final issues of Tranformers: […]
Star Wars Rebels Season 4 Episodes 12 and 13 Review – ‘Wolves and a Door’ and ‘World Between Worlds’
Chris Cooper reviews the twelfth and thirteenth episodes of Star Wars Rebels season 4… Note – I’d love to steer clear of it, but this review is going to contain pretty hefty spoilers. This late in the game it’s nigh-on impossible to talk about the episode without spoiling something. I’d rather give you some fully fledged thoughts […]
Young Sheldon Season 1 Episode 14 Review – ‘Potato Salad, a Broomstick, and Dad’s Whiskey’
Martin Carr reviews the fourteenth episode of Young Sheldon… Back after an enforced hiatus Young Sheldon carries on giving us gentle character progression, feel good moments of circumstantial humour and subtle Big Bang references. In the main episode fourteen is effectively engaging whilst attempting to broaden Mary Cooper’s impact. Zoe Perry has done a sterling […]
Review – Black Panther: The Official Movie Special
Martin Carr reviews Black Panther: The Official Movie Special… Movie compendium pieces, film tie-ins and cinematic annuals are in the realm of coffee table talking points for most. Oversized, glossy, packed with pictures and minimal information. Marvel Studios who seem to be taking over the world when it comes to breaking new ground across the board, […]
Waco Episode 6 Review – ‘Day 51’
Red Stewart reviews the final episode of Waco… When I was done watching the Waco finale, I looked at my notes and saw something surprising: I had only written down four things. Typically when reviewing a television show or movie, critics will have pages worth of notes to go through when constructing their final published assessment. When […]
Black Lightning Season 1 Episode 6 Review – ‘Three Sevens: The Book of Thunder’
Red Stewart reviews the sixth episode of Black Lightning… Black Lightning was unique in that it was only non-Marvel superhero show that I awarded consecutive high scores to the first two episodes. It really seemed like a series that was going to be different from the typical superhero slate, and with a 13-episode count as opposed […]
Comic Book Review – The New Teen Titans: The Judas Contract Deluxe Edition
Ricky Church reviews The New Teen Titans: The Judas Contract Deluxe Edition… Deathstroke is one of DC’s most fan-favourite villains whose popularity has soared in recent years. Between his appearances in Arrow, the video game Batman: Arkham Origins and the cameo he made in the post-credits scene for Justice League, he’s been popping up a lot. Now fans […]
The X-Files Season 11 Episode 7 Review – ‘Rm9sbG93ZXJz’
Matt Rodgers reviews the seventh episode of The X-Files season 11… It’s date night for Mulder and Scully in this standalone episode of The X-Files swan-song series, one that attempts to do a Black Mirror with its humorous on-the-nose technological foreboding, but excels by taking an Inside No. 9 – A Quiet Night, dialogue light approach […]

Video Game Review – Moss
Shaun Munro reviews Moss on PSVR… Moss is without question PSVR’s most-anticipated game of 2018, winning the hearts of headset owners way back at its E3 debut last June, and building up a strong head of hype ever since. Thankfully, the year’s second “AAA” PSVR title is for the most part a terrifically executed, endearingly cute […]
