Agents of SHIELD: Principia

The Agents of SHIELD open with a scene that, at first, seems to have little to do with anything going on right now.

Gotham: A Dark Knight: Reunion

Gotham’s A Dark Knight season continues with “Reunion.” It’s one of their simpler titles and it works on a few levels.

Krypton: Pilot

Superman was the first comic book superhero. Without him, the entire industry doesn’t exist. He is the start, the root, of all the comics, novels, games, tv shows, and movies.

Black Lightning: Book of Revelations

The Black Lightning writers continue their predilection for odd titles with “The Book of Revelations.” I guess they’re going for a Biblical theme, which is a bit odd as religion is one thing they’ve largely stayed away from, barring Lawanda’s funeral.

Gotham: A Beautiful Darkness

They continue Gotham’s current season with “A Dark Knight: A Beautiful Darkness.” This one opens with Ivy 3.0 and Selina robbing a rich family by making use of Ivy’s new influence power.

Punisher: Memento Mori

Punisher’s first season ends with “Memento Mori,” which wraps things up and gives a few surprises along the way. With this being a season finale, there are going to be spoilers ahead. So you may want to skip this review if you haven’t finished the season.
