  • Title: Phineas and Ferb – A Chip to the Vet
  • wiki: link

Taking Perry to the vet creates all kinds of craziness as the platypus works to prevent getting chipped, which gets more complicated after Doofenshmirtz (Dan Povenmire) shows up with plans to chip and track his nemesis. Meanwhile, Phineas (Vincent Martella) and Ferb (David Errigo Jr.), along with their friends, create a giant pet wash and grooming station, to help the overwhelmed vet office as Candace (Ashley Tisdale) spends time flirting with Jeremy (Mitchel Musso) at Mr. Slushy Dawg missing her chance to catch her brothers in another crazy build that, of course, blows up just before her mother shows up.

The Aristocats

/ / Home Video
  • Title: The Aristocats
  • IMDb: link

Originally released in 1970, I first saw The Aristocats during one of its re-releases in theaters. The last film to be personally approved by Walt Disney, the last film to be released during co-founder Roy O. Disney‘s tenure as CEO, and notably worked on by five of Disney’s core animators, the film is an interesting mix of classic Disney animation with splashes of French styling and jazz thrown into the mix as well. Much like Disney’s next feature Robin Hood, released three years later, you can feel a change in the studio’s continued direction away (at least temporarily) from the classic princess films that built so much of the magic kingdom.

Hellboy and the B.P.R.D. – Professor Harvey is Gone

In the late 1980s, Hellboy investigates the disappearance of an English professor who went missing after coming in contact with a long lost artifact. Hellboy’s interaction with the small statue sends him out of space and time finding the professor on a small island infested with monsters, talking statues, and a ghost goddess on a throne of skulls with whom the old man has become infatuated by (like so many before him).

The Umbrella Academy – Plan B #2

/ / Comics

It’s a brave new world. The Umbrella Academy has fallen with its members indecisive and scattering while the Sparrows have taken center stage forcing a fascist new regime in place even the United States Government is too afraid to oppose. Diego continues in his hero role, although Pogo notes criminals are being taken down faster than the system can hold them (rather than be murdered by Earth’s new heroes). And Five has decided it’s time to start fighting back foreshadowing a showdown (although not giving any clues as to why it would end any differently than the Academy getting wiped out by the Sparrows in their first encounter).

Black Cat #1

/ / Comics

The new volume of Black Cat starts out with an amusing setup featuring a banged-up Felicia Hardy in the waiting room of the Night Nurse following a hard day which we’ll see a bit, all narrated by our protagonist. Fitting into larger Marvel Universe events, but not getting too wrapped up in them (although the Spider-Man cameo feels… odd), the comic can stand alone both as a fun one-off for curious readers and as a jumping off point for Felicia deciding on a change in career.
