The Great Hellboy Re-Reading Project Part XVI: A Darkness So Great
My epic project to re-read Mike Mignola’s complete Hellboy saga from the very beginning rolls on! Click here for part one, in which I discussed the very first Hellboy tale: the four-part mini-series Seed of Destruction. Click here for part two, in which I discussed The
Star Trek: Absent Enemies
After enjoying the “Typhon Pact” e-book, The Struggle Within, I decided to move onto a more recent e-book, John Jackson Miller’s Absent Enemies. This e-book was the first story to take place following the events of the five-book Trek novel crossover series “T
From the DVD Shelf: Josh Catches Up With Ridley Scott’s Exodus: Gods and Kings
I missed Ridley Scott’s Exodus: Gods and Kings when it was released back in December, 2014, and the film’s dismal reviews kept me from rushing to watch it on DVD or streaming. But there was no way I could altogether skip a new film from Ridley Scott, one of the greatest
Star Trek: Typhon Pact: The Struggle Within
I enjoyed this summer’s solid-though-not-spectacular Star Trek Beyond, but for me, for the past decade-plus most of the best Star Trek has been of the unofficial kind. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed many of the Star Trek fan films that are being made (fan films that sadly remai
Josh Reviews HBO’s Confirmation
HBO’s movie Confirmation brings to life the story of Clarence Thomas’ 1991 confirmation hearings to replace Thurgood Marshall on the U.S. Supreme Court, and Anita Hill’s allegations that Judge Thomas had sexually harassed her when they worked together at the departme
The Winds of Winter: Josh Reviews Season Six of Game of Thrones!

Josh Reviews Suicide Squad
Following the disappointment of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, a movie that I found to be overly dour and grim and dull (and, even more problematically, filled with almost nonsensical plotting and paper-thin characters), I thought Suicide Squad looked like a breath of fresh air f

Last week I wrote about a lot of stuff that had been released in and around Comic-Con that had gotten my nerd juices flowing. Here’s lots more fun stuff that didn’t make it into that post! Let’s begin with this spectacular trailer for the third season of Star Wars
News Around the Net: Comic-Con Edition!
There has been a TON of cool stuff hitting the web this past week during Comic-Con! Here’s some of what has caught my eye: OK, I strongly disliked Batman v Superman, but that doesn’t mean I’m not rooting for DC to release some strong films. I have always been a M
Josh Reviews Star Trek Beyond!
For the 25th anniversary of Star Trek back in 1991, we were blessed with the minor miracle that was Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. That film remains one of my very favorite Trek anythings, from all the many TV shows and movies. It’s a gorgeous film, surprising dark
