By Robbie Pleasant | Feb 22, 2017 | Television

Wow… I gotta hand it to the show, because this episode had me on edge the entire time. It had a HSQ (Holy Shit Quotient) through the roof, making it probably the best one this season. How do I like this episode? Let me count the ways. 1. Tension This episode kept me on the edge […]

Tomasi behind it, combined with the artwork of Jorge Jimenez, and you’ve got a winning formula. So let’s see how the first issue of […]

“Steven Universe” #1

By Robbie Pleasant | Feb 9, 2017 | Reviews

Steven Universe, as a TV show, is remarkable in terms of characters, morals, and storytelling. It blends great messages, world building, and just a bit of anime inspiration behind a colorful tale of a young boy who summons a shield from a gem on his bellybutton. But does it translate well into comics? Well, let’s […]

“Planet of the Apes/Green Lantern” #1

By Robbie Pleasant | Feb 2, 2017 | Reviews

Crossover time! I love crossovers, or at least I must, going by all the ones I review.

Another month of Marvel, so let’s see what they have in store. There’s some uninspired X-Men teams, an Inhumans book where the cover alone diminishes my desire to read it (as much as I like Al Ewing), and plenty of other stories that just don’t make the cut. But these here are the top ten […]

Five Thoughts on Agents of SHIELD’s “Hot Potato Soup”

By Robbie Pleasant | Feb 1, 2017 | Television

1. Patton Oswalt is a national treasure I mean, the episode begins with two Patton Oswalts (that is to say, two Koenigs) quoting Star Wars and Back to the Future. But then he still fights off Russian attackers without missing a beat. It’s been too long since we last saw any Agent Koenig, and it’s […]

Welcome to the season of LMD paranoia! Any of the people you know and love could actually be a robot duplicate… even I might be an LMD, if it would make a good plot twist. But for now, let’s put those squishy human brains to work and analyze this latest episode. 1. May’s Great Escape Last […]
