I went into From Paris With Love expecting an unimpressive buddy cop comedy, but I left having seen a really fun and sometimes intense buddy cop action flick. Travolta and Meyers have good enough chemistry to make me hope for a sequel. Read More

Unfortunately, NOLA doesn't live up to its potential. Although the series supplies readers with the elements necessary to create a compelling four-part comic series — protagonist, antagonist, struggle, and revenge — the third issue perpetuates the Read More
