Darth Vader #22

/ / Comics

Darth Vader #22In this issue Darth Vader fights a Rancor. And not just a Rancor, but a cybernetically-engineered monster sent by its creator to slow Vader down. What more could you want?

Okay, there is also some story here as Vader slowly carves his way through the enemy ship searching for the traitor Cylo. Despite besting the man’s scientist and all cybernetic threats to block his bath, the Dark Lord of the Sith is outmanuvered as Cylo’s plan comes to fruition and the renegade is able to steal the new Super Star Destroyer Executor right from under Darth Vader’s nose. I’m guessing the Emperor won’t be pleased.

“The Talented Mr. Rollins” marks a major turning point in the season. Thwarted by Elliot (Huw Collins) and unable to prove that the doctor is responsible for Alison‘s (Sasha Pieterse) deteriorating condition, the Liars focus on learning more about their adversary. Not only do they discover how his use of drugs is making Alison appear insane, Aria (Lucy Hale) and Hanna (Ashley Benson) also discover the good doctor’s motive by uncovering his secret relationship with Charlotte.

Mockingbird #4

/ / Comics

Mockingbird #4Mockingbird is one of the few (arguably the only) Marvel Comics character whose appearance in Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. has improved the character. Largely a second-stringer, Bobbi’s new popularity helped to get our gal her own solo series. Opening in Kazakhstan where the same pathogen dormant inside her wiped out an entire species of antelope, Mockingbird #4 takes us along on Bobbi’s search for answers into an A.I.M. rip-off’s secret underwater laboratory. And while she’s there, why not spend the time to save Hawkeye who somehow got himself captured by the science soldiers of T.I.M. (Total Idea Mechanics). Seriously, no Marvel hero should ever let him live this down.
