Comic Critiques
Gold Standards: Point of Authority #1 Critique
Point of Authority sits somewhere in between a dark version of Disney’s Incredibles and a light-hearted issue of the comic book Powersr; with its noir design and the foreboding undertones in the story.

Lumberjax has really good bones: solid character designs, a great concept and it’s funny to boot. Oh, and the artwork by Guida – chef’s kiss! All the ingredients for a cult classic in the making.
Picking up my feelings: Hotshot #10 Critique
The idea of a superhero possibly using his/her powers to stop abuse in their home has locked me in as a reader. Just imagine if Peter Parker’s Uncle Ben abused Aunt May!? What kind of hero would he have become?
