Darth Vader and the Cry of Shadows

Clone trooper Hock has been through much since being left for dead by his Jedi leaders in the Clone Wars. Now, Hock believes he has found a truly great warrior who deserves loyalty and commands respect—Darth Vader! If Hock can impress the Dark Lord as a stormtrooper, he will have earned respect of his own from the leader he admires most.

New Release and Review: ‘Monsters! and Other Stories’

Sometimes a cover really can catch your eye, and in this case, it was a cover and the attention of Dave Dorman, who pointed it out a while back on his Facebook page. When I saw it was coming out this month, I knew I had to review it. For starters, the art style is really fun and outstanding. Secondly, I’ve loved monsters ever since I was a kid. Monsters! and Other Stories tells three tales of dark humor completely through visuals (there are no words). Amazingly enough, Gustavo Duarte pulls it off. Click here to check out our full review.
