Newspaper comic strips are a lost art. You need to convey a full beat in one small space every day. That beat has to be satisfying in… Read more “The Tie-Ins That Bind: A Field Guide to Licensed Newspaper Comic Strips pt. 1”
OPX 10: Only Millennium Kidz Know!
Ready for some semi-recent nostalgia? (We like to think it’s semi-recent since the era we’re covering is technically in this millennium, but GOD, just humor us..) This week at the Omniplex, we’re covering the strange transitional era between 1996 and 2006. We examine the trends as well as the ups and downs of each. So strap in for this wild Disney ride (a few of which were made into movies) through an age of sequels, remakes, book films, and tv adaptations.

The Chronicles of Tim Drake: Red Robin
And so I finally come to the actual commission I was given. This was a long journey but I’m glad I did the lead up work. Trying… Read more “The Chronicles of Tim Drake: Red Robin”
Review: Identity Crisis
I knew this was going to hurt. Identity Crisis by Brad Meltzer and Rags Morales is a book I have wrestled with for years. I’ve openly admitted… Read more “Review: Identity Crisis”
The Chronicles of Tim Drake: Robin/The Joker’s Wild/Cry of the Huntress
We are in an awkward place. Tim Drake’s solo book is kind of a mess. While it isn’t bad, far from it, the book is often a… Read more “The Chronicles of Tim Drake: Robin/The Joker’s Wild/Cry of the Huntress”
OOTS 3: Not Afraid to Burn in Hell? (Tiger King/Cecil Hotel)
We call this third, our third meeting of the Snoots to order with a Netflix docuseries two-fer. We mark the beginning and the end (hopefully) of the quarantine by reminiscing about the crazy crazy big cat people of Tiger King. With Max and Theo (our own Big Cat), we sniff out the eccentricities of one Joe Exotic as he bashes (for some reason) Cool Cat lady Carole Baskin. Murder for hire, an almost literal and specific CULT, and golden balls (don’t even ask), this is a wild series. We also talk Crime Scene: Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel, a series we hope is about ghosts and murderers, and end up being about a mystery that isn’t really even a mystery.
To view a much better version of Tiger King, we recommend you watch Tiger King: The Parody by Monica Ortega on Youtube. All the same info, but shorter and funnier.

Tim Drake is my Robin. I don’t say that because he was Robin when I started reading though he was. Tim Drake is my Robin because he’s… Read more “The Chronicles of Tim Drake: A Lonely Place of Dying”
