Comic Book Reviews - April 11, 2018



While one ninja's new quest begins, one speedster's ends; and where one detective must have a meeting of the minds, a priest finds his mind may not be as clear as he once thought. Mystery and intrigue are about!

Devilman Crybaby, Killing Bites, And Differences in Hyper-Violent Drama




This past Winter 2018 anime season contained two massively violent series that, interestingly, did not stream on conventional anime methods: the first to premiere was the widely popular Devilman Crybaby which premiered in the first week of January, and the second was Killing Bites, which premiered toward the middle of January. Both shows revel in their violence and absolute absurdity, and upon first glance, the series may resemble one another in themes and ideas through visuals, but there’s something to be said about how hyper-violent drama can be taken in two drastically different directions.
