Read or Pass?: Horror Comic Edition

Written by Angela Rairden Despite the fact that itā€™s November, Iā€™m not ready for Halloween to be over.

NIGHT OF THE GHOUL by Scott Snyder and Francisco Francavilla As soon as I saw that Snyder was the writer on this series, I knew I had to pick it up because, aside from notably writing multiple Batman comics, he...

ā€œBunniculaā€ Graphic Novel is Timeless, Whimsical Classic Perfect for Halloween

Quantum Leap: A New Generation

Written by Angela Rairden As a child growing up in the 90ā€™s, I absolutely loved the original Quantum Leap, which ran from 1989-93 but aired on tv for much longer. The hope that each leap would be Dr. Sam Beckettā€™s eventual leap home was a huge appeal, and watching him ā€œput right the things that went wrongā€ in each episode was always intriguing.
