By Nolan P. Smith Editor When Valiant Entertainment announced the live action, digital series Ninjak Vs The Valiant Universe, I was beyond hyped.

By Nolan P. Smith Not all new games have to have the best 3D graphics to display on a 4K TV. Sometimes, you just need a game with good mechanics, tough challenges, and a lot of heart. Metanet Software Inc. brings us such a game with N++.
By Nolan P. Smith When I first glanced at the cover of X-Men Grand Design, I thought: hey, original X-Men costume, might be interesting. What I didn’t expect was a masterful retelling of the important life events in the lives of Marvel’s merry mutants, the X-Men.

By Nolan P. Smith Valiant Entertainment is bringing back one of their oddest yet entertaining books with Quantum and Woody. The not so dynamic duo of Eric and Woody Henderson have been a staple with Valiant since before the recent rebirth of the company, and have always been fan favorites.

By Nolan P. Smith Back in 2012, Image Comics released a series from the twisted minds of Grant Morrison (We3, JLA) and Darick Robertson (The Boys) called Happy. A sick, violent, rated R book with a Christmas slant to it, I loved the series when it initially hit. Fast forward to 2017, and SyFy is now airing a series based […]
By Nolan P. Smith When the film John Wick hit theaters in 2014, it brought a surge of energy back to the action film genre, and brought Keanu Reeves back into the well-deserved spotlight.

By Nolan P. Smith It pays to venture away from the big comic book publishers from time to time. Trust me, I love DC and Marvel, Image and Dark Horse, Valiant and more. But I love venturing into the smaller press, as you can find some amazing gems. Behold said gem in Long Lost from Scout Comics.
