Drowning in essays, that’s what. And yes that is Sylvia Plath’s face. As normal humans begin to make merry and hang twinkling Christmas lights from the rafters, students buckle and flail beneath the strain of essay word counts in the black shadow of looming exams. Right now as I write this I sit in a library […]

It’s been quite a while since I’ve read first issues of comics as I’ve been preoccupied with two really great series (Empress and Joyride – check them both out if you crave excellent art and great storytelling), but I recently went to Forbidden Planet in Dublin and picked up a few new series to try […]

Along with the usual movies, I always take the time to watch some of my favourite Christmas TV specials. While some are more famous than others I will never forget watching children’s TV presenters Zig and Zag on RTÉ and their jolly dose of festive insanity. A cherished childhood memory for me is the post […]

Injustice: Gods Among Us is one of the best explorations of an alternate reality in the DC Comics Universe. It just so happens that it’s also a tie-in series for a beat-em-up video game of the same name. Injustice: Gods Among Us came out in April of 2013 and if you’re a fan of fighting […]

A couple of weeks ago we talked about the recent trailer releases for the upcoming live action adaptations of Fullmetal Alchemist and Ghost in the Shell. This got me thinking about older live action adaptations and that I have not seen as many as I thought which may be a saving grace as they have […]

Hello, comic people! Hello non-comic people. This is another smoking hot, black-and-white, demon-ridden edition of Comicphiles.  I watched a western on Sunday and that got me on a Tarantino binge and now all I can think about is Detectives and pulpy fiction and bloody sword/gunfights. That Sunday night is the exact reason I could help myself […]

Sometime in September four years ago, I started writing for this site. I’d actually decided I wanted to join sometime before that, but getting the gig seemed like an exclusive club I didn’t know the password to. Turns out the password is get drunk with the editor-in-chief, Declan, and compliment his cooking. I’d met Declan […]

The last episode of the season was better than I expected after the previous episode. That said, it had some of the same issues of the previous set of episodes. Of its pros, it does that much hoped for connecting with other series with Asylum‘s Lana Winters. It also puts the scare factor back up a […]
