Ten Issues of growing dread and uncertainty.
Something like two years of waiting to see what happens; to maybe understand why.
I know we will probably never see a “why” in “The Walking Dead” because that would mean an ending and why stop riding that cash cow, huh?
At least we knew Crossed would have an ending;...

It’s been what? Five years now since Rick was smacked on the head with a shovel while prowling outside his own home.
Did you ever get the idea that Rick died right there an then and the rest of “The Walking Dead” has been some kind of melodramatic Hell? A Purgatory for Rick who woke...

Two Issues in a row and we haven’t heard from Horsecock again. All setup no follow through I guess. For Now.

I’ve been enjoying the “Dark Reign” crossover storyline; so much so that I look forward to what I get to read of it from time to time. In Dark Reign: Fantastic Four #2, Reed is scanning the Marvel Multiverse looking for answers to where he went wrong and it looks like he’s coming to...
