Five Thoughts on Supergirl‘s “Crime and Punishment”

By | Apr 22, 2019 | Television

Welcome back all you Supergirl fans! Passover is in full swing and Easter has wrapped up so you know what that means! That’s right, we get to watch Supergirl watch Lena read traumatizing diaries, listen to Otis Graves mug for the camera, and try to figure out if James’ story is supposed to be about his trauma with being shot, Lex, or the Haron-El juice in his veins. Oh, and Kaznian Supergirl is nowhere to be found.

“Calamity Kate” #2

By | Apr 18, 2019 | Reviews

The bounty hunter genre has been having a bit of resurgence as of late. From “Motherlands” to “Doctor Aphra” to “Crowded,” you can’t shake a stick without coming across a variation on one of these narratives. Where does that leave “Calamity Kate?” The new kid on the block trying too hard? The well-polished successor to the genre? Or is it something that takes those notions and slashes it in half with a snarl, a scream, and well suppressed grief? If it were up to Kate, I’ve got a feeling it’d be the latter.

Five Thoughts on Riverdale‘s “Jawbreaker”

By | Apr 18, 2019 | Television

It’s been a hot minute since we last spoke. How y’all been? Me? I’ve been good. Relaxing. Writing. Reading. Playing some G&G. Ostracizing my child and then shifting all the blame onto them while simultaneously joining a cult that reinforces my fears and convinced me that my very legitimate trauma could only be solved and healed by alienating my child in the most hurtful of ways and burning my past to the ground.

For six years he plotted and struck, always one step ahead and a thousand miles away. Now, he is ready. Now, he is invading. Now is the War of the Realms. […]

Five Thoughts on Supergirl‘s “All About Eve”

By | Apr 1, 2019 | Television

Welcome back all you Supergirl fans! You know, for an episode called “All About Eve,” there’s very little Eve Tessmacher in it and, instead, we focused on Jimmy, J’onn and Lena. Don’t get me wrong, this wasn’t the worst decision they could have made nor was a particularly bad one, it’s just a baffling decision considering the title. Maybe the next episode will be called All About Lex and feature exclusively footage of Superman on New Krypton. I’d watch that.

“Bad Luck Chuck” #1

By | Mar 29, 2019 | Reviews

Imagine, if you will, a vortex of the worst luck imaginable. The anti-Domino. The living embodiment of Murphy’s Law. Drop them into a crime thriller, complete with cults and an insurance investigator and what do you have? A hell of a first issue is what. Oh, and there may be a few spoilers ahead. Written […]
