WTF, Summer (Spencer Grammer)? You’ve never seen Die Hard? Who hasn’t seen Die Hard? For the second episode of the season, Rick and Morty gets meta as we’re thrown into the middle of an adventure where Morty‘s (Justin Roiland) consciousness has been split across millions of NPCs in a video game when the arcade is attacked. Rick (Roiland) jumps into the game in an attempt to round up the Mortys and talk some sense into them (which turns out to be harder than he expected) leaving Summer to take out the terrorists who have captured the mostly empty arcade by doing a “Die Hard” on them.

Adapted from the popular anime of the same name, the Netflix live-action version of Cowboy Bebop only lasted a single season before coming to an abrupt end on a cliffhanger introducing the last of the animated series’ major characters. This version of Cowboy Bebop gets off to a strong start with the introduction of our space bounty hunters Spike Spiegel (John Cho) and Jet Black (Mustafa Shakir), chasing down bounties across the universe and often getting in over their heads, and the introduction of rival bounty hunter Faye Valentine (Daniella Pineda) who will eventually become part of the team.

Stargirl – Chapter One: The Murder

  • wiki: link

Stargirl returns with a new season entitled “Frenemies” as old villains look for second chances in Blue Valley including the Gambler (Eric Goins) who returns in search of his daughter only to uncover something dark under the surface of what has become a quiet town. The character’s death at the end of the episode gives us the episode’s title as well as sets up a mystery to be solved. It looks like Courtney‘s (Brec Bassinger) willingness to offer everyone a second chance, over the grumblings of her own team and doubts of Sylvester Pemberton (Joel McHale), will be put to the test.

Once and Future #29

/ / Comics

The penultimate issue of Once and Future offers a pair of great moments heading into the series’ conclusion, and that doesn’t include Rose surviving the blow from the Green Knight.
