The Inventor Vol. 1: The Dangerous Discovery by Lars Henrik Eriksen

August 23, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

Online reader copies have slowly gotten into my reading “pile” for books. Well, one site has and it is dangerous! Dangerous! But then I got an email from Papercutz. Oh how I enjoy them, but how I grumble at the fact they too are online. Unless I want to wait until the end of January 2024/early February 2024 for The Inventor Vol. 1: The Dangerous Discovery. Which, I did not. As it is, it will be hard enough to wait for volume two of this […]

Samurai: A big deal in Japanese society for 700 years

Magical History Tour Volume 12: The Samurai by Fabrice Erre

March 3, 2023 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I have written about the Magical History Tour series before, but I still love talking about them, even though I have told you just read them! No questions asked (and you my good friends have, I am sure)! And my ultimatum is probably because I am that way. I just read them regardless of subject. Fabrice Erre’s series of historical events and people have ranged from Vikings to oil to Albert Einstein.  And I am not really interested in the world of oil, Vikings, or […]

Astro Mouse and Light Bulb vs the Troublesome 4 by Fermin Solis

September 24, 2021 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

With a character called Caca what do you think Astro Mouse and Light Bulb vs the Troublesome 4 is about? Well, Fermin Solis created a book about a Mouse called Astro Mouse, a space explorer who is as bright as a burned-out light bulb. There is a Light Bulb (that is robotic like and floats along) who is smart and who has a crush on a lamp. There is a Lamp that likes having adventures with Light Bulb. There is a funky Space Chicken, talking […]

The Loud House #13: Lucy Rolls the Dice by Loud House Creative Team

June 23, 2021 by BlackRaven Leave a Comment

I have read one other collection of the Loud House family. This time, I found The Loud House #13: Lucy Rolls the Dice in an online format from Papercutz. This company publishes graphic novels such as the Smurfs, Magical History Tour, and a few others I have reviewed here, does a lovely perk in their newsletter where you can get one free read online per newsletter. It is a great way for me to find the Nickelodeon/Nick at Night looking comics of the Loud family. […]
