We are just having fun reviewing and discussing comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime/animation, music and movies that we have recently read, listened to or watched.
News from around the net related to comic books, graphic novels, manga, anime, and movies.
For some reason Wolf Saga’s “Auburn Nights” takes me back to listening to songs in the 1980’s. I was in High School and just listening to all kinds of music, as any teenager does, and this would be one I would pick up just to sway my body to while singing it with the artist. It’s a fun song that isn’t fast or slow…it’s just right as the saying goes. Check out Wolf Saga’s “Auburn Nights through SoundCloud I think you will like it – Richard:
I know it will be a little while before this is out, but it looks pretty good. Check out the teaser trailer for the live action Jungle Book from Disney through their “Disney Movie Trailers” YouTube channel:
“Go” has an interesting sound mix. It has what I would say an Electric Soul sound. The rhythm of “Go” is infectious and catches your interest from the first beats. It has a strong bass beat that I enjoyed. However, that strong bass was also a little to strong. At times it overpowered Serengety’s vocals. I’m interested in hearing her do more, but I want her voice to be the star. I believe with the right single her voice could be a show stopper. Check out Serengety’s “Go” through SoundCloud – Richard:
I know this hasn’t even hit the shelves yet, but this is one that library’s and if you personally like graphic novels instead of comic books it will be collected into a single volume. I’m talking about Dark Knight III: The Master Race by Frank Miller and Brian Azzarello. If you are like me and have the floppys I will be getting the individual issues to go along with the other two mini-series. I’m a Batman fan so you know I’ll be there.
CHCKLK has just recently released their single and music video for “The One”. This starts out with a dark feel to it that I didn’t quite expect, by just starting the song. I go into these without any knowledge of the group as much as I can so I don’t know their style and it is a fresh take from me. The dark music overpowers the lead singer, but that is intentional I feel because of the feeling the band wants the listener to experience. However, just by listening to it the first time without the video I had no context for why they wanted to go so dark. The upon watching the music video for “The One” it brought the single home for me and was much more enjoyable. So first time listeners it might take a while to get used to this single, but by CHCKLK sharing their music video with us through their YouTube channel, the first time listener will have a better experience in understanding the dark experience that I believe the band wants you to have. Put it this way if you are into the darker themes with your reading, viewing, and listening pleasure you will appreciate this single and music video – Richard:

Sneaky Bones is sharing his latest single and music video with us entitled “Eternity”. Sneaky Bones is definitely keep up that folk/Americana sound that we first heard with “Dreams”. This time Sneaky Bones, I believe, was going for a softer sound with his voice, however this let the instrumentals over power him a little at times. With his lower register voice he has to watch this and remember to lower the instruments volume or sing with his clear voice that I know he has. Sneaky Bones is sharing with his “Eternity” music video with ComicPop Library, through his YouTube channel, for everyone to enjoy – Richard:

Just saw this yesterday, I know I’m behind. The Martian looks like it will be a good one. It’s been on my list to read and I might have to move it up because everyone says it’s a great book by Andy Weir and now we have an upcoming movie. Check out the movies trailer through 20th Century Fox’s YouTube channel:
