Green Hornet • Miss Fury #1

The first issue of the new mini-series putting the Green Hornet and Miss Fury together is a bit hit-and-miss. The comic opens with the action already underway and the pair fighting a group of thugs together under a circus tent. After the action is done we get the pair meeting out of costume at a charity event for an extended soap opera interlude before finally bringing back the costumes and bringing the pair back together for a bookend action scene where once again the audience is late to the party.

The follow-up from the first episode of the series featuring a Leonardo adventure after being separated from his brothers, “Mikey Does the Right Thing” follows the same format opening with Mikey (Shamon Brown, Jr.) already in danger running from another killer robot with his hostage/frenemy Rod (Pete Davidson) who desperately wants to be a mutant. While Mikey agrees to make Rod a mutant in exchange for his help, he backs out on the deal accidentally creating Pigeon Pete (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) in the process.

We Live in Time

  • Title: We Live in Time
  • IMDb: link

We Live in Time is a bit of a throwback, a solid film that shows the formula of throwing together two extremely likable stars and giving them a stage to perform is still a formula for success. For our pairing we get Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh as Tobias and Almut. The film jumps around in non-linear fashion to delve into the pair’s relationship from their cinematic meet-cute (where she literally runs into him with his car) through the ups and downs of their relationship over the years.

Transformers #16

In a chaotic issue focused on the Autobots finding themselves in the middle of a battle between two warring groups of Decepticons (without an appearance by Shockwave, sadly), the most interesting moment is saved for the end confirming Megatron‘s survival and foreshadowing his return. This isn’t likely great news for the Autobots who have only kept pace with the Decepticons thanks to their questionable leadership so far. The return of Megatron, who probably isn’t going to be happy to learn Optimus Prime is walking around with his cannon arm, could definitely shake things up.
