Akogun: Brutalizer Of Gods #’s 1-2
I am incredibly glad I decided to start watching Blerd Without Fear’s Youtube videos sometime ago, as it was thanks to him that I first learned of Oni Press/Murewa Ayodale/Dotun Akande’s Akogun: Brutalizer Of Gods title. Which is essentially described as African Conan and after reading the first two issues, I believe it. To my […]

It’s been hotly debated, theorized and explored for decades now that perhaps humanity are only ghosts inside a machine, code written to perform for an unknowing god, living inside a simulation to […]

When Frank Silva emailed me about the first issue of Deer Editor (due out in January and was a successful Kickstarter project) the first thing I thought to myself is that ‘wow, this sounds ridiculous. I gotta read it.’ and said as much to Frank. Flash forward several days later and after reading this first […]
