The Mentalist‘s 100th episode takes a look back at Patrick Jane’s (Simon Baker) first case with the CBI. The episode begins with a disheveled Jane showing up in the CBI offices to talk with Lisbon (Robin Tunney) after learning she is now in charge of the Red John case. Less than 10-minutes in the building Jane is asked to leave and provokes an agent (Gary Basaraba) into punching him in the face, which gets the a short conversation with Lisbon and Virgil Minelli (Gregory Itzin) and a ride in the country to his first official crime scene.

The Flash #13

/ / Comics

the-flash-new-52-13-coverThe Flash #13 begins the comic’s new arc “Gorilla Warfare.” With the newly reformed Rogues about to claim their first victory over the Flash all hell breaks loose as Central City is invaded by Grodd and his army of super-gorillas from Gorilla City. The scarlet speedster’s enemies have no choice but to team-up with the Flash or see their entire city laid to rubble (with them under the pile).

Part One of “Gorilla Warfare” is a hell of a lot of fun with tons of action as Central City’s hero and a collection of its most notorious enemies fight an army of attacking super-apes. The dialogue does a good job showcasing the incredulity of everyone involved with the situation they find themselves in, and once again the comic’s art by writer/artist Francis Manapul is terrific.

I don’t know if I’m ready to see the Flash battle Grodd for the next three months, but this issue certainly helps sell me on the idea of the multi-issue arc involving Grodd, the Rogues, and my favorite speedster. Worth a look.

[DC, $2.99]

Who’s That Girl – Amy Ferguson

/ / Top Tens & Lists

Amy FergusonAlways the bridesmaid, never the bride. True, she might not grab the starring role, but she finds a way to keep popping up in movies and television, almost always reminding us that we have seen her before, even if we can’t quite remember where. And from time to time, she may even stay on-screen long enough to find a way to steal the spotlight for a memorable scene or two. Even if we can’t quite remember her name we immediately recognize her face and search furiously through our brains to remember where we have seen “that girl” before.
