Nemesis review

This isn’t specifically a review of the fourth issue, although that’s included. More so it’s a review of the series in general.

Review: Knight and Squire 1-3

Paul Cornell’s Knight and Squire is… well, I have no idea what it is.  When reviewing Kathryn Immonen’s fantastic and underrated (and extraordinarily uneven) Patsy Walker: Hellcat, I reviewed one issue with a resounding, “Uh… wait, what?” and was unable to give it a letter grade or even make a coherent statement about the issue.  Paul Cornell’s Knight and Squire belongs in a similar category.  Though it has less concentrated weirdness than Immonen’s wonderful series, each stand-alone issue is a bizarre, humorous exploration of an underutilized portion of its comic universe.
