Review: Jessica Jones: Alias Vol. 1

Posted on September 9, 2021 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Jessica Jones: Alias Vol. 1 is one of the most groundbreaking series out there, involving the one and only Jessica Jones.

Posted on August 19, 2021 by Liz (AKA Cat)

As the title sort of indicates, Doctor Aphra Vol. 7: A Rogue’s End is the end of Doctor Aphra’s series. Well, this series that is. She already has a new series that is actively updating, and it is absolutely worth checking out. Continue reading →

Posted on August 12, 2021 by Liz (AKA Cat)

Star Wars: Doctor Aphra Vol. 6: Unspeakable Rebel Superweapon may be a bit of a mouthful, but it is still a worthwhile read! Though I might be just a touch biased there, since Doctor Aphra is one of my favorite Star Wars characters to date (well, one of five, at least). Continue reading →
