“You’re gonna kill a whole lot of people, aren’t ya’?”
“Already started.”

After returning from New York, he’ll also make a trip New Orleans meeting with Neagly (Maria Sten), and putting a quick end to the subplot involving an undernourished dog, Reacher (Alan Ritchson) turns his attention back to the Kliners, the small number of cattle, and the exorbitant amount of feed on their property.

Elektra: Black, White & Blood #2

/ / Comics

Elektra: Black, White & Blood #2 offers three more tales of Marvel’s most famous assassin in white, black, and plenty of red. While there is no break-out tale in the issue, we do get three solid stories featuring the character in different locales.

“Cut and Run” finds Elektra in Madripoor where Patch puts the assassin onto Joon, a woman of the evening who has fallen in with a dangerous assassin who isn’t too keen on her aborting what he believes to be his unborn child. 

In “Verité” a couple of New York Police Detectives work to try to solve the murder of a witness against the Kingpin who was killed so quickly that the murder wasn’t caught on camera (funny, I didn’t know Elektra was a speedster?). And in “Yokai,” set in Japan, Elektra fights a legendary creature who has stolen a small child.

The King’s Man

  • Title: The King’s Man
  • IMDb: link

Removing all the humor, and most of the over-the-top action, from the franchise, writer/director Matthew Vaughn delivers the dreary prequel The King’s Man. Set during World War I, the film isn’t about the creation of the Kingsman but instead the story of the man (Ralph Fiennes) who would eventually put the group together and his turbulent relationship to his son (Harris Dickinson). As in the other films, there is, of course, a secret organization led by a Scottish madman behind the events of WWI whose reveal turns out to be as lame as the rest of the film. …
