Top cow shares Angelus with DriveThru Comics

November 7, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The famous Witchblade comic series from Top Cow is already available at OneBookShelf’s DriveThru Comics and so it perhaps makes sense that the spinoff series Angelus should also make an appearance. Angelus follows the one-time Witchblade wearer Danielle Baptiste after she has become the Angelus – that’s the human bearer of the prime force of […]

Poor old Mr Gosh. He loves little dead Lenore with love than is more than love. Or he did. After years of incredible abuse, violence and brutality the question must be – does he still love her? Fans will have to wait until January 2011 for the release of Lenore #2 but Titan have released […]

Betrayal at Falador review

October 17, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Betrayal at Falador is the first official RuneScape novel. Jagex are doing great things with the brand and extending the reach of the game via the fantasy novel route only makes sense to me. The novel is by T.S. Church and published by Titan Books. While Betrayal at Falador is the first RuneScape novel it […]

Stephen King’s Full Dark, No Stars trailer

October 7, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Stephen King‘s Full Dark, No Stars is a collection of four long stories. I think Stephen King’s novella offerings are some of his strongest and so Full Dark, No Stars is a book worth paying attention too. The first story, “1922”, is that of a farmer who tries to murder his wife in order to […]

Isaiah Mustafa as Luke Cage in Hero Spice spoof

October 2, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Marvel call this “The Hero Your Hero Could Smell Like”. I’m sure other people will call it “How Long Can The Old Spice Spoofs Continue For”. I quite like the title “Hero Spice”. Luke Cage (aka Isaiah Mustafa) takes a quick tour of the Avengers Tower. Security is pretty rubbish because he runs intoo M.O.D.O.K., […]

Harry Potter 8

October 1, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Is Harry Potter 8 being written by JK Rowling? The question is worthy of debate as JK really didn’t do a good job of persuading us there would be no more Harry Potter books in a recent interview with Oprah. In fact, she said; “I could definitely write an eighth, ninth, tenth…I’m not going to […]

The Desert Spear review

September 26, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Desert Spear is the second book in the Demon series. I think they’re already calling it the Demon trilogy but let’s not count our chickens until they’ve hatched like demonic drones from the core of the earth. The first in the series is The Painted Man which simply took my breath away. What a […]
