    Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord and Death to Pachuco | Fantastic Forum

    This week on Fantastic Forum, we are diving into dark power and cultural identity with two bold stories from very different worlds. First up is Star Wars: Maul - Shadow Lord on Disney+, the latest Star Wars series centered on one of the saga’s most dangerous and compelling villains. Following Darth Maul as he consolidates power in the criminal underworld, the show explores the rise of Crimson Dawn and the cost of control in a galaxy ruled by fear.

    One Piece Season 2 and Batwoman #1 | Fantastic Forum

    This week on Fantastic Forum, we are diving into two major releases that bring superhero legacy and high seas adventure to the spotlight. First up is One Piece Season 2 on Netflix, as Monkey D. Luffy and the Straw Hat crew set sail into the Grand Line.

    TMNT: Casey Jones and Beneath The Trees Where Nobody Sees: Rite of Spring | Fantastic Forum

    Fantastic Forum is back with another week of conversation, critique, and comics! This episode we’re diving into two very different corners of IDW Publishing with the newest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Casey Jones mini-series and Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees: Rite of Spring. First up, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Casey Jones spins the fan-favorite vigilante out of the pages of the main TMNT series and into his own spotlight. Written by Alex Paknadel with art by Amancay Nahuelpan and colors by Luis Antonio Delgado, the series finds Casey waking from near death with a renewed mission to protect New York City. Unfortunately for him, the city isn’t getting any safer. A new strain of mutagen and a dangerous new enemy threaten the vulnerable mutants of the streets, pushing Casey to his limits while his closest allies, including April O’Neil and Raphael, worry he’s pushing himself too far. Then we turn to one of IDW’s most talked-about horror titles with Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees: Rite of Spring. Created by Patrick Horvath, who serves as writer and artist with lettering by Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou, this sequel returns readers to the deceptively peaceful town of Woodbrook. Beneath the storybook charm lies something far darker as Samantha Strong, the small-town hardware store owner who also happens to be a serial killer, finds her carefully maintained double life under threat when a visitor arrives searching for answers about a long-missing brother. Cute aesthetics collide with brutal horror in a way only this series can deliver. We’ve read the issues and now it’s time to break down what worked, what surprised us, and what these stories say about the range of ideas coming out of IDW right now.
