Black Adam is an empty tiresome noisy descent into pop pow ker splat superherodom. It’s DC once again trying to jump the line and be Marvel by introducing yet another bunch of heroes and not bothering to flesh them out … Continue reading
Saloum follows a trio of mercenaries fleeing an African conflict. They hide out on a region called Saloum and quickly discover there are evil spirits about. Lots of opportunity here to tell a unique story in a unique setting… but … Continue reading
