Gotham: Heroes Rise: How the Riddler Got His Name

After a very long, seemingly random hiatus, Gotham is back. In keeping with their tradition of naming sections of their seasons, this one is called “Heroes Rise.” Obviously Bruce would be part of that, and I guess Gordon accounts for the plural? I guess we’ll find out as we go. The show opens with a…

Iron Fist: The Blessing of Many Fractures

Last time was a lot of plot and character development. With “The Blessing of Many Fractures,” we dive back into a lot more action. The scenes before the credits are divided between Danny going back to Harold’s place, and Claire at home. Claire is reading a letter from Luke Cage, which is a really nice…

Iron Fist: Felling Tree With Roots

“Felling Tree with Roots” isn’t the most action packed episode of Iron Fist, but you could argue it’s a pivotal one. A lot of things change, and we learn about others. There were a lot of surprises that I did not see coming, and I like how they did the majority of the reveals. They…

Agents of SHIELD: No Regrets

  The Agents of SHIELD/Agents of Hydra’s adventures in the Framework continue in “No Regrets.” It’s really odd seeing the new dynamics among the various characters in these alternate lives. It almost makes up for the fact that we’re spending so much time in a giant video game. But, we do find out they don’t…

iZombie: Eat, Pray, Liv

  A lot of odd things happen on iZombie this week. Arguably, odder than normal, which says something in this world. I also want to strangle one of the characters by the end of the episode, but I’m getting ahead of things. There’s weird events and bad choices all over the place. The episode opens…

Logan

The way my life works, I don’t always get to the movies as much as I’d like. So, while it’s been out for a while, this is when I finally got to see Logan, hence why my review is late by many standards. Even though it’s been out a while, I’m going to try to…

Titans Annual 1

Titans Annual 1 Writer: Dan Abnett Artist: Minkyu Jung Colorist: Adriano Lucas Letterer: Carlos M Mangual Cover: Brett Booth, Norm Rapmund, and Andrew Dalhouse Someone is abducting heroes, and many of the members of both the Titans and their mentors in the Justice League find themselves in a strange maze. Tempest, Aquaman, Donna, Wonder Woman,…

Agents of SHIELD: Identity and Change

The next part of the Agents of SHIELD’s adventures in the Framework continue in “Identity and Change.” It’s a dark world in there, and getting worse all the time. This is supposed to be Aida’s virtual paradise? This is one video game I don’t want to play, thanks. In Coulson’s classroom, he summarizes what’s happened…

Iron Fist: Under Leaf Pluck Lotus

“Under Leaf Pluck Lotus” starts off differently than the other episodes of Iron Fist so far. Three women with matching bags walk down the street in prefect step, finally separating at an intersection. These three are drug reps like you find in any big city, except that they are selling the new heroin we’ve been…

iZombie: Zombie Knows Best

  The new season continues, with sub-plots building and weird brain side-effects in full swing, in “Zombie Knows Best.” Unlike a lot of their usual episodes, this one has a lot of flashbacks in it, and focuses a lot more on Clive. I thought it worked well, and that’s even with me being sick of…
