The Flash – Versus Zoom

Alan Rapp / April 21, 2016 / Television Reviews

Title: The Flash – Versus Zoom

In an episode that begins with a flashback to Earth-2, “Versus Zoom” gives us darker version of the origins of Barry (Grant Gustin) as we witness the tragedy of Hunter Zolomon’s childhood which would lead him down the path to taking on the personas of both Jay Garrick and Zoom (Teddy Sears). Opening with a sequence that helps explain Barry’s short stint on Supergirl, the episode is mainly concerned with the Flash and his friends setting another trap for Zoom which, to absolutely no one’s surprise, goes wrong.

Boba Fett Life-Size Figure

Alan Rapp / April 21, 2016 / Toys & Collectibles

Because if you can’t buy yourself a life-sized Boba Fett what’s the point of even having a job? The 78in figure is clad in an authentic replica of his Mandalorian armor featuring an articulated helmet with adjustable rangefinder, and comes with a light up themed base, Wookiee scalps, blasters, and jet pack. All of this can be yours for the low, low price of $8,495.

Starfire #11

Title: Starfire #11

Writers: Amanda Conner, Jimmy Palmiotti
Artist: Elsa Charretier

Starfire‘s time in the underworld of Strata comes to a close, but not before the hero gets to relax with Atlee and Stella and see just what the bizarre land has to offer. Mainly built around deepening the connections between Kory and her friends, is a dialogue-heavy issue without even a single real action sequence (if you ignore Kory’s brief misunderstanding with an octopus).

Starfire #11 is a strange issue to jump back into for a series I had largely forgot was still in print. It’s certainly not a must-read (especially for a series that’s going away with DC Comics’ new Rebirth reboot). That said, fans of the character are likely to have fun here seeing Kory more relaxed than usual and enjoying a true day off from her super-heroing duties.

Castle – Backstabber

Alan Rapp / April 21, 2016 / Television Reviews

Title: Castle – Backstabber
wiki: link

The recent news that Stana Katic will be leaving the show at the end of the season means should Castle be renewed for another year it’s likely future episodes will look more like “Backstabber” in which Hayley (Toks Olagundoye) gets herself into a jam and relies on the help of Castle (Nathan Fillion), Alexis (Molly C. Quinn), and their friends at the NYPD. After being used by a former friend and colleague for a less-than-legal break-in, Hayley finds herself in the middle of a murder as her past as a spy catches up with her.
