Smallville - Shimmer

Smallville Saturday takes us back to the time Lex Luthor (Michael Rosenbaum) had a stalker and an invisible attack roamed the halls of Smallville High School and the Luthor Mansion. Amy Palmer (Azura Skye) was the daughter of Lex’s maid and butler with a major crush on Lex. Awkward and lonely, Amy doesn’t take well to Victoria Hardwick‘s (Kelly Brook) addition to the household and throughout the episode we’ll see attacks on Victoria and those at the school who give Amy a hard time. Our invisible attacker, however, is revealed not to be Amy but her even creepier and overprotective brother Jeff (Birkett Turton) who discovered he extract the oil from meteor-infected roses to create a cream which could make him invisible.

Hack/Slash: Back to School #1

Set in the early days of Cassie Hack‘s days of hunting slashers with her partner Vlad, the opening issue of the four-issue mini-series teases an epidemic of children murdering their own parents while the larger story involves Cassie being invited to join a monster hunter school for girls (after seeing them dispatch a bunny killer in a diner). Lots of gore, off-beat humor, panic, and ominous overtones here from writer and artist Zoe Thorogood. In other words, just what you’d expect from a Hack/Slack comic.

Bob's Burgers - The Pickleorette

“The Pickleorette” is an example of a common trope on Bob’s Burgers where one of the members of the family gets them involved in a situation that quickly snowballs taking poor Bob (H. Jon Benjamin) along for the ride. In this case it’s Linda (John Roberts) attempting to make up for accidentally burning Gretchen‘s (Larry Murphy) lookbook by bending over backward to help Gretchen throw a sloppily-planned bachelorette party for her sister Jestain (Rachel Dratch) in which none of her bridesmaids can attend and the strip club where the event was meant to conclude turns out to be closed for fumigation.

Red Sonja #4

Red Sonja #4 gives us the siege of Velanger. Over the course of the comic, the city walls will be overrun by the followers of Thord Varg thanks in part to his agent within the castle helping to undermine their defenses, the power of persuasion Varg has which has others surrendering to him, and the sway he has over his army willing to kill to find that which he seeks: Red Sonja.
