Above-the-Board Recommendation: Keep Your Hands Off Eizouken vol. 8 Initially, the main reason I picked this volume for the top spot was because I was glad it was finally coming out after being delayed and re-solicited in previous solicitations. Then I ran a search through my previous write-ups to find out how many times I […]
The fallout from “Dig Deep One Chance’s” cosplay interview continues here, but it’s nothing to worry about. That’s because Ruby has a plan to deal with it all. She’s got the cosplayer who made the tweet ready to speak on the show, and the director behind the segment to… well, it’s best that you see […]
I approached Saturday at the con the same as I have for Comic-Cons in the past few years: Get up. Drive down to San Diego. (Get my badge.) Attend panels. Leave and meet Steve for dinner. Then drive back home. It’s a setup that has yielded good times in years past and I was expecting […]

Vol. 13 of this series ended on a triumphant moment of forgiveness, capping off an installment where it looked like Thorfinn’s vision of a land without war was genuinely possible. So if you wanted “Vinland Saga” to have a Mega Happy Ending then you should’ve stopped reading there. While I enjoyed that volume, it was […]
