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.
IDW has announced that it has reached an agreement with Amazon to start releasing it’s graphic novels on the Kindle Fire. Only ten are available at this time, some of the titles are: Locke & Key, Vol. 1; Last Unicorn; and Parker: Hunter. Use the link below to get the other titles.
ICv2 has posted the pilot trailer of what could have been a Locke and Key television series based on Joe Hill’s comic book series. From the trailer it looked pretty good. Thanks to ICv2, through YouTuber DarthRong, for this trailer.

If you or one of your patrons happens to be going to the San Diego Comic-Con you can pass this along to them. On July 22nd, Friday of the Con, at 10:30 a.m., in room 8, a screening of the pilot for Locke & Key and then a panel afterwards with author Joe Hill and IDW’s Chris Ryall will be held. This might be the only chance to see Locke & Key since the Fox network didn’t pick it up as a series and no other networks have looked at it either.
