Alternative Rock with, as Flaxman describes the opening track, “dreamy, warm, shimmering, melancholic hymn / hallucination of a bright life that lies just through the next door” vibes.

This is Hulk vs Thor: Banner of War Alpha part 1. I picked up this book because the cover was gripping: Thor and Hulk are locked in an intense battle against each other. I just had to pick this up. Another enticing detail was that it was written by Donny Cates. This is the guy that wrote Absolute Carnage and Crossover, two comics that I thoroughly enjoy (but by far not the only comics he’s written)! The artist for this comic is Martin Coccolo and the colorist is Matt Wilson.

Back in February Ultimate Black Panther #1 hit the comic book shelves and I made sure to nab it. I was excited to read this because it was part of Marvel’s Ultimate Comics revamp. If you’ve listened to The Comic Panel for a while you’ll remember that we’ve covered a lot of the original Ultimate Comics such as the Ultimate Fantastic Four, Ultimate Spider-man (my personal favorite), The Ultimates, Ultimate X-men, and, most recently, Ultimate Iron Man. If you haven’t, then what you’ll need to know is that the original Ultimate Comics were an initiative launched in the early 2000’s at Marvel to modernize their characters.

When it comes to comics, Flash has had various publishers such as Dark Horse Comics, Ardden Entertainment, Dynamite, Marvel, and others. The last time Flash appeared in comics was in 2017 with the limited series Flash Gordon: Kings Cross. And now, Mad Cave Studios is taking over the reins and revamping the character with a creative team composed of writer Jeremy Adams, artist Will Conrad, colorist Lee Loughridge, and letterer Taylor Espisito.

Hello, Jimmy here. I’m excited to announce a new release from one of the hidden gems of the 90’s, Drill for Absentee. These guys started playing when the math rock and hardcore scenes were blooming across the US. In their early days they even played shows with Blonde Redhead, Faraquet, and American Football. Read more about it here. And catch my show, Tuesdays at 8 pm.

TRIGGER WARNING: the comic has topics of suicide, depression, drugs, and underage drinking.

The word “Retrovizor” means “Rear-view mirror” in Croatian. The first song on the album is called “Welcome to the Rearview” which I think is a perfect way to start off the album, since the word “Retrovizor” means “rearview mirror.”

In the heart of the Wood Centre at the Univerity of Alaska Fairbanks is the local radio station, 91.5 KSUA FM. For over four decades, KSUA radio has served as a platform for student expression, a training ground for future broadcasters, and a gathering place for Fairbanks’ media community. KSUA hit the airwaves in 1984, experimenting with a commercial radio format, however, financial difficulties forced a temporary shutdown in the early 1990s. In 1993 KSUA re-emerged as a non-profit educational station, fueled by student passion and a commitment to alternative music. Today, it harbors over 35 shows that are currently on air.

From the time I was a kid, I wanted to be a DJ. The idea of playing music and sharing it out across the airwaves was akin to magic. The first chance I got to try it, as a young teenager, my nerves were off the charts and I couldn't do anything - and we weren't even live. Fast forward to 2017 when I dusted off my old turntable and started listening to the albums I had left. I was blown away by the sound and I was hooked again, diving head-first back into the vinyl community.

In the history of cinema, films like “The Lord of the Rings” and “Avatar” are often hailed as classic film series. They not only boast grand and breathtaking visuals but also intricately woven plots that deeply resonate with the audience’s emotions and thoughts. “Dune” series undoubtedly belongs to this category of masterpiece. It inherits the epic fantasy created by the novelist Frank Herbert, and under the direction of the “new godfather of science fiction films,” Denis Villeneuve, it once again demonstrates his profound understanding of visual art. Through exquisite cinematography and bold imagination, Villeneuve flawlessly presents the magnificent scenes from the original novel on the screen.
