Dark Matter - Nowhere to Go television review

Dark Matter closes out its Third Season with a bit of a messy episode which opens with Two (Melissa O’Neil choosing not to shoot Ryo (Alex Mallari Jr.) and closes with the death of a member of the Raza’s crew and the arrival of an armada of black ships through a breach in space-time. While overburdened a bit with too much plot, the episode certainly provides its share of memorable moments including Two’s betrayal, the resurrection of the alien storyline, Three‘s (Anthony Lemke) capture, and the destruction of both the Blink Drive and the Marauder.

Killjoys - Reckoning Ball TV review

The penultimate episode of Killjoys‘ Third Season deals primarily with D’Avin (Luke Macfarlane) attempting to come up with a plan to stop Aneela (Hannah John-Kamen) that doesn’t involve Dutch‘s (John-Kamen) death as well.

Voltron: Legendary Defender - The Hunted TV review

Keith (Steven Yeun) and Prince Lotor (A.J. Locasio) both prove themselves flawed leaders in “The Hunted.” Noticing the Voltron team isn’t the same as the one which beat his father, Lotor lures the paladins of Voltron into a trap where he can pick off the lions one-by-one. Keith’s stubbornness leads the paladins into the trap, despite the concerns of his teammates. However, Lotor proves a bit too cautious for his own good as his attacks only help Princess Allura (Kimberly Brooks) make a connection to the Blue Lion and bring the paladins together as a team once more.

Astro City #46

Astro City #46 comic reviewIntroduced early in the current run of Astro City as part narrator and part guide, the true identity and agenda of the Broken Man has been in question. Tying back to the recent musical-history-inspired stories of Jazzbaby and Glamorax, Astro City #46 finally reveals the true origins of the Broken Man and his first contact with dark entity known as the Oubor.

Not only do we learn where the Broken Man came from, a truth that even he himself can’t come to admit, but also his reasoning for breaking the 4th wall and talking directly to the audience. Far more than just a guide through the history of Astro City’s music and heroes, the Broken Man needs our help.
