Hawaii Five-0 - Ua Malo'o Ka Wai TV review

A ship full of dead bodies sends Five-0 to the island of Lanai where McGarrett (Alex O’Loughlin), Danny (Scott Caan), Chin (Daniel Dae Kim), and Kono (Grace Park) believe Yakuza big wig Michelle Shioma (Michelle Krusiec) has set up a new drug smuggling operation.

Nova #5

Nova #5 comic reviewAn attack on Sam‘s home that puts his sister in danger forces Richard Rider to admit a harsh truth to both himself and Earth’s other Nova. While the two of them can hold the malevolent creature at bay, Rider must admit he is unintentionally the cause for these attacks. Returning from the Cancerverse the Nova brought something back with him. And as long as Rider stays that door remains opened.

Nova #5 seems to end with Richard Rider making the big heroic sacrifice to save his universe from the evil coming through the the other dimension. However, the final few panels foreshadow this isn’t the end of Rider’s story, or necessarily his time with Sam.

Powerless - Van v Emily: Dawn of Justice television review

The lead story of “Van v Emily: Dawn of Justice” could fit into any office comedy. Revolving around Emily‘s (Vanessa Hudgens) desire to get her own office and Van (Alan Tudyk) being threatened of a subordinate’s success, the pair square off in the most ridiculous way possible – by competing against each other by using a child’s playset. Loosing the competition, but breaking Van’s ego in the process, it falls to Emily to put her boss back together again. There are some nice touches here, like Van going through a ridiculous assortment of trophies obviously purchased for him by his parents and Jackie’s (Christina Kirk) reveal of the evil truth behind the employee of the month award.
