A masterful treatise in parlour card magic, this remarkable text offers a perfect blend of routines and essays that will teach you how to truly create truly compelling and engaging card effects for the oft-neglected medium-sized parlour audience.

For example, "Eureka" is an artful and intellectual approach to the Any-Card-At-Any-Number plot designed exclusively for a parlour audience. While there have been enough ACAAN routines published to last a lifetime, very few have been designed to effectively operate outside of a close-up setting. "Eureka" has been carefully built from the ground up to suit a salon style performance and you'll want to add it to your set immediately.

"Outstanding", Mansilla's take on the "Out of this World" plot, gets everyone involved and solves the problem of people in the back of a parlour audience feeling neglected or disconnected from your routines.

The appropriately named "Card in Envelope" is a powerful and direct routine that has been meticulously modified to ensure this classic of close-up magic can thrive among a larger audience.

This is just a small sample of the 12 professional routines and three lengthy essays featured in this gorgeous 174-page hardback book. This is a must-read for any card magician looking to expand the potential of their card magic.

A beautifully drawn fun book.
Format: Paperback
This was an extremely fun book that works as another chapter in the Energon Universe Image is building. The art work is fantastic and the story is full of action and is told in a fast pace. Another reviewer complained it is woke and forced diversity but I did not see that at all. If you love GI Joe you will love this book.

A great pick up for new Joe fans
Format: Paperback
A very fun read! I’m a fan of Kelly Thompson in general and this did not disappoint. I recommend it if you liked Thompsons other work. It’s a bit reminiscent of her Black Widow run.

Shoehorned Diversity
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
Two beloved female characters who are decades old turned gay. Not the gift I was looking to give a new generation of Joe fans.

Please keep Kelly Thompson away from G.I. Joe!
Format: Paperback
I only read this because it was one of the mini series that was setting up the new Energon Universe of GI Joe. The other minis were quite good and I hoped this one would be the same. Nope. It’s terrible. Terrible dialogue, terrible characterization and terrible reimagining of several popular characters. The plot is bare bones, poorly executed, and often so contrived and cliched I'm convinced Thompson must have watched a bunch of ninja movies from the 80s before writing this and thought she was being clever for ripping them off. The art is passable but the artist definitely needs to work on his fight choreography and stop drawing women so jacked. Scarlett and Jinx look like they have been taking steroids. And let’s not forget that Thompson loves writing lesbians, so it’s heavily implied Scarlett and Jinx are a couple. Because that’s what modern audiences want to see, more historically hetero characters made gay. Thompson, like Tom King, needs to be kept far away from popular characters and just stick to creating her own original stories where she can work out her issues and fetishes away from the rest of the mainstream comic reading public. And if I ever see her name on another G.I. Joe comic I will most definitely avoid it like the plague. Just my two cents.

Painful Read

This is a painful read. I only got it because I’m reading the rest of the EU Booms.
