New review today for Transition Hacks For Ye Old Mascs by Leo Covault! That’s it for SPACE month, although if you think that’s the end of the SPACE comics you are completely wrong. But now I’ll also be mixing in other comics for review, which has also made me realize that I’m pretty low on other comics to review. Now’s the perfect time to send me some comics, as the line for reviews is currently very short. Happy weekend y’all!
Update for 5/29/25
May 29, 2025New review today for S. Padre Island from whoever makes the comics at Turtle House Comics. Their name, sadly, has been lost to history (when I went to SPACE last month).

May 28, 2025Like I’m going to go the entirety of SPACE month without reviewing a Brian Canini comic. New review today for Airbag #0! Also I finally did a control+f search for Brian’s name under the “review by authors” tab (highly recommended for finding comics you’ve never heard of, since the reviews start 24 years ago) and I do think he’s the overall winner of most comics reviewed, as this is #54, and it’s also not even including any anthology he’s in. Even John Porcellino barely cracked 30! So, congrats to Brian, I guess?

May 27, 2025New review today for Crime and Punishment by M.S. Harkness! No, she wasn’t at SPACE, but I managed to get her latest comics while in Columbus anyway.

May 26, 2025Somehow last week got away from me, so I’ll end SPACE week how it began: with a review every day of the week, just like old times when I was still young and full of enough energy to do such a thing. New review today for Not What I Ordered by Matthew Northrup!

May 15, 2025New review today for The Light Outside the Window by Ben Wright-Neuman. Also sure, I may review the same names a lot (because they make so many comics), but both reviews this week were for brand new artists to the website, and three out of the five reviews last week were also for brand new people. So hey, I’m still trying to keep things interesting!

May 9, 2025New review today for Blood Bowl by Lief Bennett! Would you believe that I had another comic all set to review (Save It For Later by Nate Powell), only to rediscover that I already wrote a lengthy review of it back in 2021. At least it was a library copy, so when I bought a copy from Nate at SPACE this year I didn’t end up with two copies on my shelves. Still, the ongoing replacement of my brain by this website continues. Happy weekend everybody!

May 8, 2025New review today for Mr. Rock and his Light Bulb Oven by Pam Bliss. Has she been making comics longer than anybody else at SPACE? She started in 1989, so you tell me, comics historians reading this that I just made up in my head!

May 6, 2025New review today for Anxiety is the Pits! by Olivia Shamell. I think she was in the CCAD section of SPACE, which I only realized well after the fact, meaning that I should have stopped at more of their areas to get more of their comics. Well, if anybody from there is reading this and wondering if I would also ramble on for a bit about their comics, I absolutely would! Just send them to the address on the sidebar there. The bar for entry here is basically me saying “oh look, a new comic!” when I get the mail.

May 5, 2025I made it to SPACE and ended up with quite a pile of mini comics, so since I noticed that I had a SPACE month last year, why not do it again this year? This may include a few books from my visit to the Laughing Ogre comic shop, but since I make the rules around here I’ve decided that this also counts. And what the heck, I’m also doing an old school reviewing week, where I review a comic a day. Believe it or not, this was the norm for the first decade of this website. Yes, it seems crazy to me now too. New review today for Metroid Gear by David G. Caldwell!

April 23, 2025New review today for Glimpses of Life #9 by Brian Canini, and speaking of Ohio artists, it’s SPACE time again this weekend! I think I’ll be able to make it, although it’s a little trickier now that I’m living in Illinois again. If you’re local, check it out!

April 15, 2025New review today for This Years is Next Year’s Last Year by Christopher Sperandio. Would you believe that this might not be the last of the comics I have to review from Cartoon Crossroads last years? It’s possible that I buy too many comics!

April 7, 2025Back to the reviews after the election, and assuming I stick with this job it’s my last election until next year, so reviews should be back to normal for the foreseeable future. Assuming we keep having elections, ha ha ha I guess? Oof. Hey, it’s a new review for Midville High #7 by Matt Blair! Which was a welcome excuse to edit a couple of my older reviews of his comics, as the formatting for those got wonky somewhere along the way. One of these days I’ll get around to fixing all of them! (I will probably never get around to fixing all of them)

March 27, 2025New review today for Career Shoplifter by Gabrielle Bell, and considering how many comics/books I’ve read from her over the years, it’s odd that this is only the fourth one I’ve reviewed. Yeah surprise, I read all kinds of comics that I don’t review. Also there’s an election coming up on 4/1. Yes, again! Meaning that I most likely won’t have any reviews up next week, but if you live in one of the many states having an election, please participate. If it’s not obvious yet, there are a whole lot of things that we take for granted in this country that are rapidly disappearing, so exercise that right while you have it, won’t you?
