Locke & Key - Echoes television review

“Echoes” offers answers to several of plot points hinted out throughout Locke & Key‘s First Season as it explores how various characters and events fit together such as the suicide that kicked off the series and just how Dodge (Laysla De Oliveira) came to be. We also get to view the past six months from the perspective of Ellie (Sherri Saum) which gives context to several of her actions and provides answers about the night Joe died. Thanks to Bode (Jackson Robert Scott) and Rufus (Coby Bird), Tyler (Connor Jessup) and Kinsey (Emilia Jones) have a clue to another key Echo wants to retrieve, although their plan to trap Dodge doesn’t go quite as expected. Eden (Hallea Jones) being attacked by Kinsey’s fear also brings her, Jackie (Genevieve Kang), and the others in on the keys and the bizarre happenings around town since the Lockes returned.

Catwoman #25

Catwoman #25 comic reviewCatwoman has returned to Gotham City in the over-sized Catwoman #25 which begins with the burglary of the Graves, Willock, and Crane building for the Penguin and the Riddler before double-crossing the both of them in order to pay back towards part of the trouble she has caused. The story also has inter-cut sequences of Catwoman’s dance with a Bengal Tiger making reference to the dangerous line she continues to walk but always manages to survive.

The comic’s other two stories center around Catwoman’s return to her childhood haunts of Alleytown where she shows up a trio of current street hustlers and later deals with her cat who narrates the strange but kinda fun final story.

Danger Man - Deadline television review

Throwback Thursday takes us back into the Cold War spycraft of Danger Man. John Drake (Patrick McGoohan) heads to Victoria Bassaland in Africa where an exiled leader is stirring up riots and protest by framing the government for the death of his wife’s (Barbara Chilcott) uncle. Posing as a gun runner, Drake is able to get an audience with Saul Khano (William Marshall) and turn the man’s conflicted wife against her husband. “Deadlline” is notable for the large Black cast and the villain getting the drop on our hero who only survives his time in Africa thanks to the timely intervention of the man’s wife.

Once and Future #11

Once and Future #11 comic reviewAfter killing Beowulf, who Merlin and Zombie Arthur sent after them by tricking the legendary hero into doing their bidding, Duncan and his grandmother are forced to deal with Grendel who attacks Bridgette‘s retirement community creating quite a mess.

Duncan arrives in time to help, much to the chagrin of his driver and the local police who are not happy about the inexplicable situation, but it’s Bridgette who strikes the killing blow as she expertly slices off the monster’s arm with the help of the groundskeeper’s chainsaw. The sight of the bloody senior citizen wielding a chainsaw against a mythical beast creates the issue’s lasting image. However, even after making sure the poem can continue without its hero, things aren’t quite finished just yet. Remember, Grendel had a mother.
