‘Grim #1’ Review

https://blacknerdproblems.com/grim-1-review/

Writer: Stephanie Phillips / Artist: Flaviano / Boom! Studios

This is not the first time, nor will it be the last time, that Blue Oyster Cult’s “Don’t Fear the Reaper” plays (or in this particular case, are written on the page) as a specter of death approaches to take a life. Grim #1 follows a grand tradition, a common story, a familiar narrative and starting, where we follow a Grim Reaper. In this case, the reaper’s name is Jessica Harrow, and Flaviano’s evokes all the tropes you’d expected while adding a distinctively modern flair to it.

Phillips’ narrative blends a lot of familiar tropes and arcs, and it’s in that unique blend that Grim #1 finds a niche. You get the depiction of the reaper leading a relatively deceased soul to the afterlife. You get the depiction of the not-exactly River Styx and the souls damned to some eternal punishment. You get the depiction of the not-exactly Purgatory in an excessive bureaucracy that some modern interpretations have leaned into. And you get the eventual pivot to the main narrative of Jessica Harrow’s journey.

Grim #1

Grim works because of Phillips’ awareness of the genre and the use of shorthand to help accelerate the pacing while still keeping us invested in Harrow’s own introspection. It’s a familiar set up, but it’s still executed tightly. You have to give props to Flaviano’s illustration, Renzi’s coloring, and Napolitano’s lettering. The combined visual aesthetic is striking, alluring, and has a fantastic, polished feel that shows a wide range of settings and action brilliantly.

While not the strongest first issue ever, Grim #1 is still a gripping first issue with a unique visual flair and tight writing. Grim’s familiarity works in its favor and innovative in its presentation. I’ll be sticking around for the next issue for sure.

Queen Latifah and Adam Sandler Star in the Lebron James Film ‘Hustle’

https://blackgirlnerds.com/queen-latifah-and-adam-sandler-star-in-the-lebron-james-film-hustle/

Stanley Sugerman’s (Adam Sandler) love for basketball is unparalleled, but the travel weary Philadelphia 76ers scout who has higher ambitions of being a coach remains stuck on the road looking for the next unknown talent. His search around the world leads him to Spain, when he discovers Bo Cruz (NBA player Juancho Hernangómez), an incredible streetball player with a troubled past. Stanley and Bo connect on and off the court, with their passion for the game and as loving family men who want to prove they can win, in basketball and in life. With the support of Stanley’s wife, Teresa (Queen Latifah), can the underdogs come out on top?

Hustle, an inspirational drama, co-stars Ben Foster, Kenny Smith, Anthony Edwards, and Tobias Harris, is directed by Jeremiah Zagar and is produced by Sandler, Allen Covert, Joe Roth, Jeffrey Kirschenbaum, Zack Roth, LeBron James and Maverick Carter.

Hustle premieres June 8, 2022 on Netflix.
