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

Captain Marvel #7 Review

Captain Marvel #7 Review

Cover - 3/5

- Would I pick-up the comic based on the cover alone? Are the alternate covers appealing? Does the cover portray what happens in the issue?

Art - 4/5

- Do I personally like this artist's style? Does the artist stay true to the characters appearance?

Colors/Ink/Lettering - 5/5

- Does the work blend well with the artist? Is the coloring/inking enjoyable and easy to distinguish what's happening? Can I easily read the lettering?

Layout/Flow - 5/5

- Does the layout of the issue make it easy to read? Does the issue have a good flow of the plot and keep me engaged?

Story - 4/5

- Weighted Triple. How well did the issue further develop the current story? How well did the issue further develop the characters? Did I enjoy reading the issue?



Verdict - 4.1

- From the cover it appears that Captain Marvel (Danvers) is going to go up against a new foe, but that is not the case. I'm not sure what they were thinking but this cover has nothing to do with the issue. To compound matters the art on the cover is actually not as good as the interior. While I'm not always a fan of the painted art style this is one of the better ones. I was highly skeptical about the issue when I first started reading it. It starts out slow with Danvers helping Monica Rambeau with a deep water exploration. It seems ships and planes are wrecked here similar to the Bermuda Triangle. The whole issue is pretty uneventful until the final sequences where some entity takes control of the wreckage and forms and behemoth from them. I'm not sure what I was looking for in the issue, it's a change of pace from Captain Marvel, Vol. 1: In Pursuit of Flight that involved Time Travel but it might take another issue to get me interested in it. Like other individual Marvel series it appears that they are trying to keep the team aspect out of the issues for now, and this can be a good thing as it leads to better character development Will have to see the next issue to see how things play out.
