“Adventure Time: The Flip Side” is a topsy-turvy mini-series that upended my initial expectations. Unfortunately, the newest issue fails to deliver. “The Flip Side” #4 sacrifices some of the fun in the name of craziness and insanity, resulting in a muddled plot and a book that can be hard to understand.

Personally, I felt like issue three of “The Midas Flesh” moved a little bit slower than I would have liked. No complaints this week; “The Midas Flesh” 4 throws the warp drive into hyper-gear as the action picks up and story gets darker and deeper.

With original and beautiful animation, incredibly witty and pun-fulled humor, and an all-star lineup of voice actors, The Lego Movie was a total home run for Game&Comic:
Courtney Crumrin #7 Cover by Oni Press
In a dark, magic-filled world, Courtney Crumrin is the last of the Crumrin witches. An intriguing story, written by Ted Naifeh, features just a little girl who is trying to fully master her powers. However, as Great Uncle Aloysius attempts to capture Courtney, she has to rely on the help of others to stay safe.
Throughout the Assassin’s Creed series we’ve traveled through different periods in time following the stories of Altair, Ezio, and Desmond as they fight the nefarious Templar order. In the final installment of Desmond’s story, Assassin’s Creed 3, we become Connor, the Native American freedom fighter from the Revolutionary War era. We, the fans, were expecting an epic conclusion to the roller coaster story that we rode throughout the series, waiting for the inevitable bang at the end where we would most likely be left wanting more, but knowing the story of Desmond had reached its end. What we got with Assassin’s Creed 3 instead was a plot line full of twists that went nowhere, unlikable characters, and one of the sorriest excuses for the end of a franchise that I’ve ever seen in gaming.
So, what better way to start off G&C than with a little recap on The Avengers?
