Arcade Kings (2023) #2

Jun 21, 2023

These series is amazing. The story is engaging, and Dylan Burnett is incredible as the creator, writer, and artist for this series. If you ever spent time in an arcade placing your quarter on the game as you call next, you are going to love this story. A nod to anyone who grew up playing Street Fighter after school. There are a lot more details we will leave out of this review as this is a must read comic for any gamer fan.

Arcade Kings (2023) #3

Jul 20, 2023

The emotional aspect of this story is apparent yet it does not overtake the story. It is a good balance of emotion, action, and people coming together to support one another. Writer Dylan Burnett has written a masterpiece so far. If you have not started Arcade Kings the timing could not be better. This is a must read.

Dont Spit In The Wind #2

May 10, 2023

There is no doubt that a greater message about the abuse of an indulgent society is something that should be of concern. Although Don't Spit in the Wind takes it to an extreme, you can see the nature of humans even in a world that has been left unlivable, still has classes of people, corruption, and evil.

Jan 31, 2024

So far Duke has been an excellent action/spy story. Everything Duke thought he new about the government has changed and caused him to be on the run. This leads Duke to a surprise visit to an old friend. Almost immediately the action begins!

The writing by Kelly in The Cull is perfect between this group of friends. The back and forth, the banter, and the genuine care can be seen throughout these issues. That coupled with Mattia's art makes the comic feel like it is a live action experience. The facial expressions, the colors that appear at the right time throughout the issue pointing to important experiences that need to be noticed by the reader, and the action all come together making a must read series.
