Pulp roots run deep in ‘The Shadow/Batman’ #4

by Jarrod | Jan 4, 2018 | HEY, KIDS! COMICS!, HEY, KIDS! REVIEWS

‘Klaus and the Crisis in Xmasville’ throws a jolly red axe in the face of cynical consumerism

by Jarrod | Dec 8, 2017 | HEY, KIDS! COMICS!, HEY, KIDS! REVIEWS

A neurotic Nineties hero ventures bravely into the 21st Century in ‘Rocko’s Modern Life’

by Jarrod | Dec 7, 2017 | HEY, KIDS! COMICS!, HEY, KIDS! REVIEWS

By Brandy Dykhuizen. Our favorite fretting wallaby makes his return–brow perennially furrowed, still somehow be-shirted in Memphis Milano–poised to take more than his fair share of life’s punches . How will this true mid-90’s Everyman be able to cope with...
