Fight for light
Set in OKC, the new novel Shadowboxer explores sexuality and self-acceptance.
Fiction
Lance Evans
It gets better. It’s a notion that you hope is true for Willie Guyles in Paula Sophia’s Shadowboxer.
Steve Niles' Remains
Put it to rest.
Horror
Rod Lott
While I'm glad to see that the horror cable channel Chiller is now making original movies, its first offering, the sci-fi "comedy" Alien Opponent, was nearly unwatchable. That film's director and writer, Colin Theys and John Doolan, return to helm the outlet's second, Steve Niles' Remains. Springing from rosier pastures — Niles' original comics — it's automatically better, rising to the level of mediocre. Perhaps their third time at bat, October's Dead Souls, will prove the proverbial charm?
'Time' bandit
