Pick Your Pickle and Prepare for Puns: Pickleball's Board Game Just Launched. A fast, fun, irreverent board game that celebrates the joy of Pickleball. Fans of silly puns, pickles, and fast-paced games alike have a new game to add to their list of must-haves: HotShot Pickleball. This delightful card-drawing board game is quick to learn and gives a surprising amount of opportunity to lightly strategize as you race to the ball and attempt to hit it back over the net to your opponent. The debut release from indie studio Midnight Trading Co., HotShot Pickleball was made while game designer Robert Gelb was recovering from an Achilles injury sustained, ironically, by playing Pickleball. For those who haven’t heard of pickleball, it's the fastest-growing sport in the world, with over 32 million players last year. HotShot Pickleball is a lively, family-friendly game that combines the fun of the sport with a cast of quirky, pickle-themed characters like Stew Cumber, Kim Chee, and Corni...

See the Review Rating Overview page for more information on how I rate each comic.


Green Lantern Corps #26 - Homecoming


It’s Lantern vs. Lantern as John Stewart battles Hal Jordan for the leadership of the Corps! For months, John Stewart has let his anger build as Hal Jordan sent Guy Gardner into the Red Lanterns and declared war against other corps across the spectrum. After the devastating events of “LIGHTS OUT,” John is determined to rebuild the Corps as he sees fit—even if it means taking down his oldest friend!

Broken Trust!


As Lanterns far and wide return home to Mogo, Hal Jordan brings news of a problem on Jruk’s homeworld Oranx; they’re thinking of allying with the brutal Khundians, and that’s bad news for everyone. While Jruk and some other Lanterns head out to deal with the problem, John Stewart takes Hal to task for sending Guy Gardner to spy on the Red Lanterns, using Mogo as a display of brute force, and other seeming errors in judgment. John even decks him out of anger, but Hal explains that he’s doing the best he can to lead the Corps out of a truly dark period. John understands, and agrees to help, starting with having Mogo build a new city on the surface for the Green Lanterns to call home. Meanwhile, the renegade Durlans have infiltrated Oranx, and they murder a politician there, framing Green Lantern Feska for the crime. Jruk leaps to her defense, and even though he proves her innocence, he is exiled and the Khund-Oranx alliance will proceed. Back on Mogo, the Durlans have even secreted themselves amongst the Corps. With some of Relic’s leftover devices, they plan to destroy the Green Lanterns once and for all.

Hal reminds us all that he’s a slick strategist by leading John into the room where Sinestro killed the Guardians. By admitting his faults as well as his strengths against such a stark reminder of the Corps’ failings, Hal’s emerging as a more capable leader than even he realizes. That’s much better than having him automatically be the best at everything.
