Voltron: Legendary Defender - Changing of the Guard review

Voltron: Legendary Defender begins its shortened Third Season with rebellion against the Galra spreading like wild fire. While Haggar (Cree Summer) has kept the severity of Emperor Zarkon from his soldiers, Prince Lotor (A.J. Locasio) has arrived to take control. Distrusted by his exile, rumors of his mercy, his unorthodox style, his love of “half-breeds,” and his sudden appearance, Lotor makes an impressive introduction to the troops quickly dispatching on of his most popular rivals. Zarkon may be gone, but it appears the Galra aren’t giving up their empire without a fight.

Danger Man - Time to Kill television review

Our Throwback Thursday post takes us back to the good old days of black-and-white Cold War spycraft.

Ben Reilly: Scarlet Spider #5

/ / Comics

Ben Reilly: Scarlet Spider #5 comic reviewKaine finally catches up to Ben Reilly in Ben Reilly: Scarlet Spider #5. The comic is most memorable for the fight between the pair that takes up most of the issue. Despite his vow to kill the other clone, Kaine decides to let Ben Reilly live for now leading to a temporary halt in hostilities between the pair until Reilly can cure a sick child (who he neither knows how to cure nor really wants to).

Fans of both versions of the Scarlet Spider will get their money’s worth here seeing the pair duke it out in panel after panel. While a few panels are left over for Cassandra Mercury seeking out and confronting the person responsible for the recent attacks on her casino, the limited number of panels is mainly used to break-up the action between the two Peter Parker clones.

Killjoys - Attack the Rack TV review

The war against the Hullen begins as Dutch (Hannah John-Kamen) leads a culling of the local branch of the Rack which goes horribly wrong when the Killjoys discover they have been betrayed by one of their own (Erik Knudsen). While Dutch continues to skulk around playing whack-a-Hullen, Johnny (Aaron Ashmore) and D’Avin (Luke Macfarlane) are captured and tortured for information. Despite surviving, and proving the truth about the Hullen to the leaders of the other Rack groups, the Killjoys are dealt yet another crippling blow as Aneela (Hannah John-Kamen) destroys all the enemies standing in her way.
