SHAZAM! #14 comic reviewSHAZAM! #14 concludes the “SHAZAM and the Seven Magic Lands” arc as Billy Batson is able to free his father from Mr. Mind‘s influence (but, sadly unable to to make C.C. Batson any less of a douche putting a damper on the family’s victory).

The issue also marks the return of the mentally-deranged Superboy Prime aware of the previous DCU timelines and calling out the Marvel Family by their historic names. He offers a threat so large we see Billy and Black Adam work together to stop him. The Superboy of an Earth destroyed in Crisis, who became frustrated with the world that was reborn without him before going all murder-crazy, has apparently been locked-up in the Monster Lands for years.

Super Dinosaur - Minimum Requirements television review

As things get back to normal in the Dynamo Dome, including a slam dunk challenge, the back-up plan for the incarcerated Max Maximus (Marco Soriano) goes into effect giving some leadership to the disorganized Dino-Men. Derek (Valin Shinyei) and Super Dinosaur (Mac Heywood) rescue the sole survivor of a Dino-Men attack, bringing the young man back to Earthcore for debriefing not realizing he is actually Maximus’ cloned son Minimus (Sean Thomas) who immediately causes havoc and nearly breaks his father out of prison. With the two primary villains out of action, Minimus fills the void left by Maximus’ defeat. As to answers about Derek’s mother, we will still have to wait for answers and to see what other gambits Maximus has up his sleeve.

Charlie's Angels - Angels at Sea television review

Throwback Thursday takes us back to the tale of three beautiful former police officers turned private detectives working for a faceless boss known as Charlie. The Angels take to the high seas as passengers aboard a cruise ship that has had several fatalities over the past few months. Before even leaving the offices, the Angels are warned not to board the ship when a life-size dummy is nailed to the office door. More warnings come aboard the ship in notes left for each of them warning of dangers to come. Despite the warnings, and the killer knowing who they are, Sabrina (Kate Jackson), Jill (Farrah Fawcett), Kelly (Jaclyn Smith), and Bosley (David Doyle) board the ship as passengers without their regular undercover identities.

Bill & Ted Face the Music movie review Nearly 30 years after the pair’s last appearance, Bill S. Preston, Esquire (Alex Winter) and Ted Theodore Logan (Keanu Reeves) are back. And the world could certainly use them. Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey told the story of how two teenage misfits would create a song to unite the world and birth a future utopia based on their music (despite all evidence to the contrary that they are completely incapable of doing so).

There were no lingering questions or threads for the franchise to wrap up as the end of Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey offered an explanation of how the Bill and Ted could come up with the music that would change the world by making use of time travel as a life hack. Bill & Ted Face the Music offers a different answer, decades in the making. While Wyld Stallyns became famous based on their performance at the end of the second movie, that wasn’t the performance that changed the world. Instead, the performance is about to happen and, not surprisingly, the pair have no idea on how to make it happen. Their attempt to fall back on using time travel to cheat destiny turns out to only make things worse.

Danger Man - The Dead Man Walks television review

Throwback Thursday takes us back into the Cold War spycraft of Danger Man. John Drake (Patrick McGoohan) is sent to India to determine if one scientist from a group of five who discovered a virulent bacteria strain, all believed to be dead, may be alive and working on weaponizing the virus for profit. Although Drake has the right idea, it turns out he has the wrong scientist. Calling on the daughter (Marla Landi) of one of the presumably dead men gets him nowhere, but the wife (Julia Arnall) of another of the scientists (Richard Pearson) proves to be far more promising.
