These are the questions that are answered in the pages of The Manhattan Projects by Jonathan Hickman and Nick Pitarra. I will admit that […]
I will confess, I had never heard of Skullkickers until the guys on Funnybooks started talking about it a few episodes ago. They made it sound like a fun book that was full of tongue-in-cheek action. I have not a read a full-on fun book in quite some time. So, I gave The Might Skullkickers […]
