Catwoman #62

Catwoman #62 continues the “Nine Lives” storyline in which writer Tini Howard keeps finding ways to kill off Catwoman and bring her back for more. My real interest in the comic isn’t in the story itself, although Catwoman fulfilling an old debt by agreeing to work a single case for Amanda Waller‘s Suicide Squad is an interesting set-up, but the number of characters with ties to the Secret Six including both Black Alice and Jeannette who are part of Catwoman’s team in stealing an artifact from Black Adam.

Will Trent - It's the Work I Signed Up For

Spinning out of events from the season premiere, and touching on storylines began last season, both Will (Ramón Rodríguez) and Faith (Iantha Richardson) visit the prison to find the shot-caller responsible for the bombing that took the life of Cricket (Susan Kelechi Watson). The investigation is stymied by the corruption within the prison and a prison break attempt which fails, but still leaves our detectives without answers. This leads to multiple father/son scenes between Will and James Ulster (Greg Germann) including the serial killer taking enough to “save” Will (but really just help out his own position within the prison hierarchy).

Jake and the Fatman - Fatal Attraction

Flashback Friday takes us to 80s Las Angeles, a large and in charge district attorney, and his special investigator with a taste of the finer things in life. The double-length “Fatal Attraction” provides a challenge for District Attorney Jason McCabe (William Conrad) in attempting to solve the murder of an old friend he suspects was killed by his wife (Rebeccah Bush) and son (Bruce Greenwood) despite the pair’s careful work to frame a fall guy for the crime. The episode sets up McCabe’s manner of investigation, bringing out the annoying “one more thing” Columbo-style of questioning when calling on the widow and the stepson she’s sleeping with.

Star Wars: The Bad Batch - Shadows of Tantiss

“Shadows of Tantiss” makes good use of a ticking tock trope using the blood sampling we saw introduced in “Confined.” With Omega‘s (Michelle Ang) blood now in the system, she’s forced to escape with Crosshair (Dee Bradley Baker) before the sample is tested leading to a hurried, but ultimately successful, escape from Tantiss. However, now that the Empire knows the secret they have been searching for so relentlessly is locked in Omega’s genetic code you would expect them to redouble their efforts to capturing her again.

Zorro: Man of the Dead #2

Reunited with her brother for the first time in years, Rosa’s attempts to get Diego out of La Vega are hampered by the cartel closing down its borders in search of them, Diego’s delusion of being the 19th Century Zorro and his determination to stay and lead a revolution, and the willingness of everyone they meet to gladly buy into Zorro’s return in the community’s time of need. While some were willing to flee, the return of Zorro has given them hope and a willingness to fight.
