Scooby-Doo! - Which Witch is Which? television review

Throwback Tuesday takes us back to Scooby Doo, Where Are You! for another mystery involving some meddling kids and their talking dog. While taking a shortcut through a swamp, Mystery, Inc. runs into a Zombie (John Stephenson) by the side of a road and a story about a Witch (Don Messick) cursing the deserted area with dark magic. While the gang uncovers clues as usual while being chased by one or the other monster, the largest clue comes from pure luck when their out-of-control boat snags a sunken armored car which the masked hoodlums have been searching for this entire time. Why they dressed up in odd disguises when there was no one to scare is a bit of a head-scratcher, especially as it causes the gang to stick around rather than continue on to their planned fishing trip.

Batman: The Adventures Continue #10

/ / Comics

Batman: The Adventures Continue #10 comic reviewAlong with continuing the flashbacks of Jason Todd as Robin and the friction with Batman that was there from the start, Batman: The Adventures Continue #10 also finally offers us the character in costume as it delivers our first look at the Batman: The Animated Series version of the Red Hood.

Most of the comic remains in flashbacks, narrated by Alfred, explaining the tensions between the second Dynamic Duo including pointing out Jason’s propensity to take harsher measures on Batman’s masked villains, including endangering the life of the Scarecrow which finally expanded the rift between the two. Although alluded to, the issue does not show the Joker‘s brutal assault on Robin and suggests, in this version, Jason may not have actually died but merely slipped into the shadows and began plotting his revenge.

Super Dinosaur - Dynore Quest television review

Erica (Shannon Chan-Kent) really is the worst. “Dynore Quest” offers a trio of adventures for Derek Dynamo (Valin Shinyei) Super Dinosaur (Mac Heywood) who race around the globe to try and prevent the Dino-Men from getting their claws on three rare elements which Max Maximus (Marco Soriano) could use to create a new synthetic Dynore. The episode also features two more victories for the Dino-Men then we usually see as Tricerachops (Kathleen Barr) is able to beat the heroes to both the first two elements, and nearly makes it three before Elliot (Tevon Herbert) helps bring their ship down. However, Erica’s shortsightedness and selfishness may just doom the world when her tantrum reveals the location of the Dynamo Dome to the world after her parents refuse to let her cash-in on a prestiguous scholarship that would have gotten her far from Earthcore’s isolated outpost.

Darth Vader #4

/ / Comics

Darth Vader #4 comic reviewWhen last we left the Dark Lord of the Sith, Vader had returned to Naboo and was working with Sabé, former handmaiden to Padme Amidala, to discover how his wife died. Believing Vader responsible for the deaths of both Padme and Anakin, Sabé and the others laid a trap hoping to use a Sando aqua monster to remove all traces of Darth Vader from the galaxy. Things didn’t go exactly as planned.

After surviving the attack and killing the creature, Vader then took on the remaining forces (including some recognizable faces from his time on Naboo). They didn’t fair that much better as Vader just as quickly, and impressively, pushes onward on his journey to Padme’s tomb in search of answers of how his wife died and how his son ended up a moisture farmer on Tatooine.

The Umbrella Academy - The Swedish Job television review

Their real lives come crashing down on both Alison (Emmy Raver-Lampman) and Luther. Raymond Chestnut (Yusuf Gatewood) has many, many questions for his wife after learning that Klaus (Robert Sheehan) was the one who got him out of prison, and he’s Alison’s brother? But that’s far less confusing than returning home to find the gigantic lovelorn Luther on his front lawn looking for his sister as well (or seeing Alison use her powers to save his life from a brutal police attack). Discovering Alison is married doesn’t help Luther either who throws his next underground fight by begging his opponent to knock him out and make his pain go away.
