Supergirl - Of Two Minds television review

When first animals and then humans start to show signs of being infected by Pestilence (Angela Zhou), Supergirl (Melissa Benoist) butts heads with Saturn Girl (Amy Jackson) over what to do once they find the final world killer. While the Maid of Might believes Pestilence can be reasoned with, the Legionnaire instead wants to end the threat permanently before it grows powerful enough to become the creature that destroys the future.

Elementary - An Infinite Capacity for Taking Pains television review

Usagi Yojimbo: The Hidden #2

Usagi Yojimbo: The Hidden #2 comic reviewThe second issue of Usagi Yojimbo: The Hidden delves more into Inspector Ishida and Miyamoto Usagi delving into the murder of Christians the night before. Once again we see strong foreshadowing that Ishida’s boss is either culpable in the crimes or at the very least far more interested in finding someone to blame and closing the case rather than uncovering the true motives for the deaths.

Other than Usagi and Ishida stopping a group from killing the gate guards who let in the murder victims and those that pursued them (someone obviously doesn’t want them to report on what they saw), there’s little action in the second issue of the seven-issue mini-series which instead focuses on the pair discussing the crime and searching for clues.
