November tv shows (and comics)

TV SHOWS



LIVE ACTION


- I know what you did last summer. 


New adaptation of the YA novel and of the 90’s slasher film series… it has virtually nothing in common with any of them. On its own it's one of many recent tv series recreating slashers of yore (Scream. Slasher. Scream Queens. AHS: 1984). This one is low on suspense but rather high on shock value. 


- Harlan Coben’s Into the woods. 


Somewhat ordinary thriller that by coincidence itself delves into slasher shenanigans every so often. 



ANIMATED


- Devilman Crybaby. 


The newest adaptation of Go Nagai’s notorious shocker, aiming to go even further with the sex and violence formula. 


- Masters of the universe: Revelations. (Volume 2) 


Fairly entertaining continuation of the 80’s cartoon. 



BOOKS


- DC Pride. 


- Marvel Voices: Pride. 


- Chilling Adventures in Sorcery. 


- The problem of Susan and others. 


- Wonder Girl: Adventures of a teen titan.



Assorted comic book anthologies. The first two centered on Queer characters, the second on Horror, the third on Fantasy, and the fourth on a legacy character. On the whole, a good sampling of the many possibilities of Mainstream American comics. 



WEBCOMICS: 


- Big Ethel Energy. 


One of the best current-era Archie Comics properties. 



- FoxTrot. 


- xkcd. 


Two regular humor strips…



- Sleepless Domain. 


One excellent dark fantasy yarn…



- AJ & Magnus. 


One strip that can’t quite seem to decide if it wants to be for adults or for children…



- Oglaf. 


- Debuffed. 


Two excellent comics for adults…



- SundayHaw. 


- Foxes in love. 


- Ty-Pesh.


Three very good furry comics for all ages…



- Wilson. 


- Convergence.


- The Island. 


And three other furry comics for adults only!
