REVIEW: The new DUNE graphic novel is a stunning but very streamlined introduction to the world
Let's be honest: the first half of the original Dune is weird. Not because of the Bene Gesserit, or the vaguely-alluded-to Butlerian Jihad, or how Baron Harkonnen evilness is uncomfortably correlated with his weight and sexuality (seriously, WTF).

From 'Locke & Key' to 'Sandman' — What's the point of an audio graphic novel?
I recently finished listening to the Audible adaptation of Sandman, the acclaimed comic book series that put Neil Gaiman on the map (thanks in no small part to contributions from artists such as Sam Keith, Mike Dringenberg, and Dave McKean).

Fry from the TV show, Futurama, his animated eyes bugging and a raised, clenched fist clutching a wad of cash, shouting, "Shut up and take my money!" It's the sentiment that drives e-commerce in 2021. We're all looking for deals that are so… READ THE REST

As an expression of your innermost deeply held feelings, Valentine's Day should be one of the easiest holidays of the year. But as any husband, wife or significant other can attest, the Day of Love can actually end up being pretty darn stressful. Flowers, candies and the usual expressions of the day are incredibly played… READ THE REST
