5 Best Comic Review Sites For Casual Readers

  Good day, folks. We're back again, this time to offer a helping hand to the comic-book curious. I've gone ahead and taken the liberty of compiling a modest list of review sites for those looking to either dip a toe into the choppy waters of the comic world or take a massive leap of faith, cannonball style, right into the open maw. You're welcome:  No. 5 Bleeding Cool First on the list is Bleeding Cool, which gets extra brownie points for having a cool name. The site covers comics, TV, film, and even wrestling, with its comic section being particularly impressive. While a little cluttered for my taste, the articles have eye-catching titles and visuals, providing not only informative coverage of select titles but also interesting opinions on the world of comics as a whole. As good a starting point as any.   No. 4 iFanboy iFanboy comes in 4th spot, and beats out Bleeding Cool with a site more focused and dedicated to comic books. They also bring cool podcasts and a T-shirt...

Wrestle Heist: The Wrestling Comic We Never Knew We Needed

  I'm going to write now, or attempt to write now with very little regard for good spelling, style, grammar, syntax, etc. For in the age of AI, crap writing is the new good writing, apparently. Authenticity is the goal in a world where anyone can sound like a literary genius. But enough of this prattling, let's cut to the chase and say at the outset that Wrestle Heist is a good comic and a must-read at a time when the internet has yanked the curtain of mystery before the world of pro wrestling and exposed all its naughty bits for us to see. But far from removing the allure of this fascinating form of sports entertainment, the nuances of the business have presented fresh avenues for enjoyment and appreciation, demonstrating once more the desire for stories of good vs. evil.  Wrestle Heist presents us precisely with this unique and fascinating world of politics, power structures, tight outfits, and belts -  and prep yourself, dear reader, wrestling terminology is fast appr...

The Infernal Hulk and Merleau-Ponty: Body Schemas and Structuring Absence

Won't the Real Hulk Please Stand Up? The Infernal Hulk comic series grants Bruce Banner his wish of separation from his monster, but the progression of the story reminds us to be careful of what we wish for. One of the most unsettling ideas in The Infernal Hulk is not that Bruce Banner loses the Hulk, but that losing him doesn’t bring relief. Banner is free of the monster, yet he is weaker, disoriented, and haunted by something that refuses to stay gone. The Hulk persists, not as a body, but as an absence that still shapes Banner’s life. This dynamic closely mirrors what philosopher Maurice Merleau-Ponty describes through the phantom limb. Amputees often continue to feel sensations in limbs that no longer exist. For Merleau-Ponty, this happens because the body is not merely a physical object, but a lived structure, a body schema through which we orient ourselves in the world. When something is removed, the body’s orientation does not immediately adjust. Banner’s condition in The ...
