Second Still - Altar

 

The bass guitar at the end of this track is like some heady hallucinogenic concoction. Man, I forgot how much I love Second Still, whose Bandcamp is HERE.

NCBD:

All hail NCBD!!!

Spidey vs. Hobgoblin? 'Nuff said.


Loved the first issue more than I liked most of what they've done with the new series on Shudder. Let's go issue two!


A new Wytches story? Sold. 

Okay, let's see just how "Earth-shaking" this finale is.


Werewolf By Moon Knight? So this is picking up where the story in last week's Crypt of Shadows left off. Super cool. After all, 'tis the season for Werewolves.


It's come to my attention that at some point, this book is likely to switch back over to following Stephen Stange. Nothing against ol' Steve, but I'll be cutting at that point. This arc with Clea, however, continues to surprise and delight me.


First issue of this new Horror Anthology was pretty great. R.L. Stine was after my time reading books for Young Adults, but I always appreciated the fact that his stuff seemed to serve as gateway horror to so many just a few years younger than me. By the looks of this book, Stine is moving his audience age up to a considerably more mature demographic, and if it maintains the level of the first issue, count me in.


I really dug the first issue of this re-branding of the way old X-Terminators idea, so let's see where this goes.

Encouraging words to make a decision and pull the trigger on sending out this new story I finally finished but am fussing with.
