Review: I Walk With Monsters
“A pretty original monster story which reflects on the ethereal monster within each of us”

“A pretty original monster story which reflects on the ethereal monster within each of us”
Review: Time Before Time #7
“There’s a lot of interesting threads starting out in this second arc and I am looking forward to where they lead.”
Review: Hellcop #1
“For me Hellcop is a heady mix of sci-fi fantasy concepts wrapped up with criminal mysteries. It takes us beyond simple cops into a world full of demons, steampunk-style technology and multiple dimensions. With humour and action I very much enjoyed the ride.”
Review: X-O Manowar #8
“I don’t think I have ever been quite so invested in a penultimate issue of X-O Manowar before.”
Review: Primordial #3
“I love that there are so many layers to this in both the writing and the art.”
Bigger Than Capes #47 – October 2021 Indie Comics Round-Up
A little late but we’re rounding up some of October’s indie titles! We’re discussing No One Left To Fight II #1, My Little Pony: Generations #1, Chicken Devil #1 and Hellcop #1!
Review: Phenomx #1
“I think there’s a lot of potential with PhenomX and it’s great to see diversity with superhero style comics. “
Review: Stillwater #11
“This issue has some really good character work paired with really good character art.”
Review: The Silver Coin #6
“I’ve said it plenty in my previous reviews, but if you’re a horror fan I would definitely recommend getting caught up on The Silver Coin.”
Review: Crossover #9
“Crossover #9 reminded me what it is that I love about this series, immediately after reading it I wanted to recommend it to more people just so I have more people to talk about it with.”
Review: The Good Asian #6
“The Good Asian #6 pushes the plot forward in some really interesting ways.”
Review: Human Remains #2
“As before this is very well drawn with vibrant colours and detail throughout, resisting the temptation to just make everything red despite the body count. But it’s the storytelling that surprised me the most. It would be easy to make this another bog-standard horror comic, but there’s depth here, we’re getting character development and emotional nuance, which is much appreciated.”
Review: The Labyrinth
“This is an interesting and dark piece that leaves you to fill in some blanks while clearly filling in others. It asks questions about the choices we make, and whether we can be forgiven for them.”
Review: Primordial #2
“It’s hard sometimes to review a really good comic that just blows you away.”
Review: Newburn #1
“It’s a neat little inverted take on some classic crime tropes.”
Review: The Me You Love In The Dark #4
“This issue features a surprisingly real feeling portrayal of an emotionally abusive relationship for a comic about some unspecified supernatural creature, which makes it feel all the more unsettling.”
