REVIEW: The Treasure of The King And The Cat Is Filled With Magical Furry Fluff
With boys’ love manga being such a popular subgenre, you’d think that there would be more variety. There is so much potential for it beyond schoolboy romances, and newer manga such as You Kajika’s The Treasure of The King and The Cat is one example of this. Published in English by Tokyopop, this single-volume fantasy…
Titan Comics PUBWATCH: April 2021
There are leaves and flowers on the trees…which unfortunately can mean some sneezes! But I’ll deal with a little bit of congestion and watery eyes in the short term.

REVIEW: Marauders #19 – Morlocks Take Madripoor
“Only two types of people in Madripoor: the rich, and those willing to kill you to become rich.” So says Patch, Logan’s alter ego in a classic display of classism.

REVIEW: The Antifa Super-Soldier Cookbook Serves Up Distressingly On-Point, But Hilarious, Political Satire
“What if everything the right thought about the left was real?” That’s the driving premise behind The Antifa Super-Soldier Cookbook, the latest from The Nib’s own Matt Lubchansky. To be honest, the premise puzzled me a little at first. On the one hand, I’m automatically a bit wary of anything that might end up being…

REVIEW: X-Men #19 – Days of Future, Passed
The City inside the Vault is, at its core, a paradox. As the name suggests, its very existence is an enigma: simultaneously infinite and claustrophobic, it appears post-apocalyptically empty but hides a deadly enemy around every corner. The “genesis tomb” of the Children of the Vault, superpowered post-humans genetically designed for world domination, the City…
Review: The Way of the Househusband Anime Has Lost Its Way
Everything is epic in J.C.Staff Studio and Netflix’s anime adaptation of The Way of the Househusband. From the rocking metal intro that juxtaposes Tatsu’s (Tacchan’s) favorite Shiba Inu apron with his irezumi, to the time Tacchan shows up as Santa Claus for his local community center. It’s fun, but unfortunately, these epic scenes were already…
