Pandasaurus has announced a new 2 player set collection game District Noir is coming this summer. Preorders will start on May 19th with retail release planned for July 19th. District Noir was originally published in Japanese by Taikikennai Games in 2016 as Throne and Grail. It was then published in 2019 as Chocolate Factory by Nasza Księgarnia in Polish. The current art and theme was published last year in French by Spiral Éditions. When the time is right, gain control! At the head of the city’s largest criminal organizations, men and women fight to control territories and gain support by trying every means possible to grow their influence. Control of the District Noir, a central and highly contested area, remains the major issue that will make all the difference in dominating the city. There are two paths to victory: win over District Noir's various supports, or directly control the city’s three strategic locations. Before players can claim these, they must be played to the center

Green Lantern: New Guardians #14 Review

Cover - 5/5

- 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 - 3/5

- 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 - 4/5

- 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 - 5/5

- 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 - 4.6

- Green Lantern comics are always a treat to the eyes. The art is normally stellar and the colors are so vivid. This cover is no exception to that. My only issue is the art, it seems like every other panel has Kyle Rayner drawn differently, and in several panels his helmet looks completely bizarre. Otherwise I'm really liking this arc. Kyle is basically trying to master each of the different emotional spectrum and this time it's fear. He unlocks his fear while trying to convince Arkillo that he needs to forget about Sinestro in order to become the "God of Fear" that Arkillo thinks he should be. The side story involves the Star Sapphire Corps telling Carol Ferris that she needs to find Hal Jordan. It seems that Guardians of the Universe are playing the Sapphires in order to find Hal. Overall this is a pretty good arc although it does seem like Kyle is learning the abilities rather fast. I can't wait to see the final battle once he has mastered them and The Third Army.
