Pretty Little Liars - Omega Sigma Die

College trips arrive giving both Spencer (Troian Bellisario) and Emily (Shay Mitchell) an excuse to check out a lead on Alison‘s (Sasha Pieterse) past and that mysterious phone number, as well as begin considering what both will be doing due to Spencer missing an opportunity to get into her dream school and Emily’s shot at a swimming scholarship disappearing after her shoulder injury.

Daredevil: Dark Nights #2

/ / Comics

Daredevil: Dark Nights #2The first three-issue arc of the new eight-issue anthology series Daredevil: Dark Nights continues here with Daredevil trying to brave a snowstorm to retrieve a heart from a downed medical chopper with precious cargo: a heart necessary to save the life of a young girl.

Although the problematic amnesia element from the first issue is gone there’s not real reason as to why Daredevil finally has his full memory restored. We’re also forced to read through several pages of the young girl’s father making dangerous deals for his daughter’s only hope with someone dangerous who gives him hope but will no doubt put both Daredevil and the heart in danger but hopefully save his daughter. (It’s dangerous, and the heart’s her only hope, go it?)

That said, Lee Weeks art is once again solid but his writing is only slightly improved over the first issue although it’s still clunky and hamfisted at times (especially involving danger or hope). For fans.

The Shadow #15

/ / Comics

The Shadow #15As The Shadow investigates The Light’s first victim in hopes of finding clues to the vigilante’s identity, Margo Lane does a little poking around at the hospital where the latest victim somehow met his horrific end in a locked and guarded room not realizing her scandalous behavior has brought Margo to the attention of The Light and made The Shadow’s companion her next intended victim.

The issue also includes flashbacks to Sister Esclarmonde’s strict upbringing and the sense of unwavering justice and brutal vengeance that was instilled in her at a young age eventually leading to the creation of The Light. Just how she acquiring her unique skills that (at least so far) even The Shadow cannot match is still yet to be seen.

Margo’s obvious overacting aside, the issue works to continue to flesh out the latest villain to come to the attention of The Shadow as well as but Lamont Cranston’s one true friend in deadly jeopardy. For fans.
