A New #1 Comic Review - Planetoid

Planetoid
Written/Art/Lettering by Ken Garing
Image Comics


WARNING:  CONTAINS SLIGHT SPOILERS


I, like any good geek, love a good sci-fi story and this one delivers even for a first issue.  Having no choice but to land on a planet, Silas is learning how to survive the hard way on a planet that isn’t so friendly.  Filled with nasty smells, toxins, unkind weather and robotic creatures with attitudes, I’m surprise he made it out of this first issue.  



Silas is lucky enough to be equipped with an artificial intelligence program named Ricter (similar to Iron Man’s Jarvis) that guides him along the “safer” ways.  I love this program!  Where can I get one?




Silas has a secret past that is doesn’t give much info about…yet.  He does find that he is not alone on this planet.  Mendel is an older gentleman with knowledge that can help Silas, but Silas has to pay with his story of his past life.



Will Mendel help Silas get off this forbidden planet or will is this the end of the road for our antihero?  This story is loaded with adventure and great story telling!  If you’re into sci-fi quests, this is one to look into.  Plus, you have the same man as the writer and artist, so you know this is how the story is suppose to look and feel.  Issue two comes out this week.





Rescue Centre Episode 13 - "Small Blessings"

Aimee and Nicole's 13th episode is almost taken over by a certain more than meets the eye beginning… And then we rage at Kade's arrogance as we review Small Blessings this episode!

"Hes sick and tired of all the messages that he's gotten from Heatwave that hes stopped checking them."

TMNT Micro-Series: Splinter



WARNING:  CONTAINS SLIGHT SPOILERS 
(but don’t let that get in the way of reading this comic)

My first comic book review for a long time for this blog, but it’s one that I want many to read.  This is probably the best single issue I’ve read this year; it even brought some tears to my eyes.  


When you think of a love story, you probably aren’t thinking of a mutant rat with turtles for sons, but this is a love story that has something for everyone.  This is a story of Splinter once known as Hamato Yoshi.  In a previous life Yoshi had a troubled heart, with acts of rage of violence only to be seen.  Changed by a woman, Tang Shen, who could see he was so much more he took a different way of life and thinking.  Yoshi then changed his ways to fit the life of peace, only to be destroyed one day by Oroku Saki, (later is known as Shredder), who took everything Yoshi loved.  Back in the present day Splinter comes face to face with his mortal enemy; what choice will he make for honor, for love and for his family?


Each panel in this comic is remarkable, either by the words, the lessons learned or the emotions the graphics turn out.  You take a journey of person's life, in some of their most intimate moments and you can't help be feel as if you personally know them and want to see them have nothing but the happiest outcome.  Filled with so many emotions, take 15 minutes out of your day and read this!


FANBOY VERSUS - EPISODE 107


The whole crew is back and we have a great show for you! It’s the lead up to SDCC, so some about that and the Marvel “Guardians of the Galaxy”. Recommends for Amazing Spider-Man, Spider-Men, Before Watchmen, Marvel Zombies Destroy and League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. We finish up with our review of More Than Meets The Eye!
