The Sixth Season of DC’s Legends of Tomorrow kicks off with Sara Lance (Caity Lotz) missing in action after being abducted by aliens, who apparently include Gary (Adam Tsekhman), from 1977 London leaving Ava (Jes Macallan) to rally the troops and find her girlfriend. While searching for a lead, the Legends enlist the reluctant help of former abductee Esperanza “Spooner” Cruz (Lisseth Chavez) and the episode also introduces the idea of alien magic which Constantine (Matt Ryan) attempts to use to help locate Sara.

Highlander - Eye of the Beholder television review

Throwback Tuesday takes us back to a man born in the Highlands of Scotland more than 400 years ago and a murderous game between sword-wielding immortals where there can be only one. Richie (Stan Kirsch) comes between MacLeod (Adrian Paul) and an old friend, womanizer, and thief Gabriel Piton (Nigel Terry) who murdered his lover (Rachel Palmieri) to keep his secrets and has now set his gaze on Richie’s new friend Maya (fashion model Katia Douvalian). Mac’s friendship with Gabriel offers a look at his more carefree days, and also the lengths he will go to for a friend (even one who has betrayed him). Gabriel plays Richie, landing him in prison and forcing MacLeod to do battle with an old friend for the life of a new one. Douvalian, a model rather than actress struggles at times with her lines, but certainly looks good on screen while Gabriel makes for an interesting frenemy who is destroyed by putting his desires and greed above friendship for a second time.

Star Wars: The Bad Batch - Aftermath television review

Opening at the end of the Clone Wars, the first episode of Star Wars: The Bad Batch catches up with Clone Force 99 (all voiced by Dee Bradley Baker) on Kaller with the genetically mutated clone squad riding to the rescue only to see the rest of the clones turn on Depa Billaba and her Padawan. Returning to Kamino confuses the clones even more where the discover an Empire has risen, the “regs” have gotten more dickish than usual, and Admiral Tarkin (Stephen Stanton) has arrived to reexamine the role of a clone army within the First Galactic Empire. The look of the series mirrors the group’s appearance in Star Wars: The Clone Wars as the fan-favorites begin their own series of adventures.

Silk #2

/ / Comics

Silk #2 comic reviewThere’s definitely some old school Spider-Man vibes happening in the new volume of Silk with Cindy Moon working for J. Jonah Jameson, although her boss seems to appreciate Silk far more than he ever did the city’s other Web-Head, and doing some further investigation while spinning webs in tights. The story that has Threats & Menaces interest is the attack on local gangs which Cindy has connected to the tech company Fujinet through some unusual tech.

Issue #2 provides Silk her first look at the cat demon Kasha who is working for Saya Ishii and Fujinet. She also helps arrange a safe spot for the local gangs to sit down and gets a new therapist (who, unknown to her, is actually Saya’s brother pumping her for information about her story).
