District Noir by Pandasaurus Games Coming Soon

Image
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

Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow #19 - Target: Snake Eyes Part 4 Review

Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow #19 Review


Is the mission to bring down the Arashikage Clan a matter of national security or a private vendetta for Scarlett? And, when it comes to a life or death battle with Snake Eyes, who will walk away? The answers lie here in the most game-changing, controversial G.I. JOE story-line this year!

Cover/Solicit - 4/5

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

Art - 5/5

- 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 - 4.4

- The G.I. Joe IDW reboot comics are some of my favorites (I'm not as much a fan of G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero). This issue continues the Target Snake Eyes story arc, where everyone from COBRA and G.I. Joe to Storm Shadow and the Arashikage Clan are out to capture Snake Eyes. Unlike Batwoman I didn't mind the use of double-page spreads, and it's probably because the flow from panel to panel and the scenes made more sense. The only issue I had with the story was because of the multiple teams involved it does bounce around a bit. Overall this was a great issue and I can't want to read the rest of the arc.

Purchase Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow #19 on Amazon
