REVIEW: Beast Boy Loves Raven Is a Heartfelt Story About Acceptance and Trust
During the ‘00s, I would watch the animated tv series Teen Titans and find solace as a nerdy teen of color who felt out of place. I would especially find comfort in the dark, snarky superhero Raven due to our similarity with shitty parents and the struggle to connect with others. At the same time,…
INTERVIEW: Creating Catwoman: Lonely City – Behind the Scenes with Cliff Chiang
Cliff Chiang is best known to the comics community as an artist–and a damn good one at that. He’s worked with some of the biggest names in comics over the years, including Brian K. Vaughn, Brian Azarello, and Judd Winick. You look at the credits to his name and can’t help but be impressed by…

The comic, ostensibly, has nothing to do with the television show, but the cover includes a “Watch Titans on HBO Max!” sticker. The members of this team (plus an appearance at the end of the…

Superman ’78 Inspires Nostalgia And So Much More
After Batman ‘66 and Wonder Woman ’77, the next cinematic adaptation for DC was, of course, the iconic Superman starring Christopher Reeve from 1978. I recently rewatched the movie (which is streaming on HBOMax), and was once again struck by how perfectly cast and perfectly acted both Clark and Lois are. But I was also…

REVIEW: The Dreaming: Waking Hours #12 Focuses Its Power Through A Trans Lens
As The Dreaming: Waking Hours #12 hits the stands, it comes time to say goodbye to one of the most well-crafted and brilliant comics to come out in the last decade, and maybe even in my life span. I couldn’t let this series go away without writing a love letter to it, so here it…
