DS 595: Apathy is My Spirit Animal

Year in Hereafter by Mikael Hankonen introduces us to a sweet, practical family before confirming that, yes, there are forces of evil in the world that you absolutely want to avoid. Running afoul of these entities takes our boys, Veeti and Mikael (no relation) on a journey you absolutely must take with them into worlds unknown. But please, leave your smartphone behind. Trust us.

DS 594: A Real Lame, Blue Collar Goblin

You’d think a fellow who trains mythic and fantastic creatures would have a higher status than a blue collar schmoe with friends named Garth and Kevin, but that’s exactly where Ulrick, the titular character of Mythic Creature Trainer by Rene Pfitzner, lives. But will he be any help when the invading orcs arrive? Read the comic and listen to our review to find out (not really, we don’t know yet, but read and listen anyways).

DS 593: No One Picks On My Werewolf Brother But Me

After Jason lays out his reboot of Old Yeller (the twist is that the dog shoots his owner), it’s time to travel to the fun, fanciful, and frightening world of Knucklejelly! Creator Benjamin Hall has weaved together a story of both heartache and adventure, full of monsters and … well, more monsters. Though it’s a comic that would probably be better served outside the restrictive confines of the Webtoons platform, it’s got a charm and joy all to itself that comes through no matter where you read it. Make sure that you do!

DS 592: Don’t Get Cocky, Kid

Eldrick is the wussy chosen one of Crookshaw Creative’s Helm. After the guys talk about comics news, including Star Power coming to a somewhat abrupt end and a new life for PvP, they delve into the excellently-produced but thus-far soulless fantasy comic that’s all about following someone else’s dreams.
