Darkwing Duck #1

/ / Comics

A new Darkwing Duck comic kicks off here with part one of a twelve-part storyline involving Darkwing Duck, shortly after his adoption of Gosalyn, searching for an arch-nemesis… and also fighting crime. In Darkwing Duck #1 we get Darkwing taking on Megavolt who has stolen a super-battery and heads to the carnival to charge it leading to a run-in with Launchpad and Gosalyn (who should be in bed). Despite the “Year One” moniker, the comic is taking place after Darkwing, Launchpad, and Gosalyn are brought together and after he’s had multiple run-ins with super-villains (even if he still has to remind them of his name). Still, it’s a fun early adventure for the character.

While the title of the episode refers to a geneticist friend of Watson (Morris Chestnut), the patient (Brittany Adebumola) in the episode suffering from multiples issues stemming for sickle cell anemia allows Watson to play with the concept of what doctors should and shouldn’t do to save their patient.

Doctor Odyssey – Shark Attack!

  • Title: Doctor Odyssey – Shark Attack!
  • IMDb: link

Doctor Odyssey returns from its mid-season break with “Shark Attack!” featuring the cruise ship’s first mate (Marcus Emanuel Mitchell) getting attacked by sharks and, while racing to get him to port, rescuing another small group of survivors also the victims of a shark attack. There’s plenty of emergency surgery here and out-of-the-box thinking in terms of the limited resources aboard the ship keeping their patients alive. Things only get worse at the end of the episode when the ship is attacked leaving it stranded and surrounded by a group of Orca whales. I would expect more ingenuity from the crew to make it through next week’s episode.

Despite what the WWE may want you to believe, Vince McMahon didn’t invent wrestling. He didn’t invent women’s wrestling. And he sure as hell didn’t even the first superstar of women’s wrestling. Queen of the Ring examines the life and career of Mildred Burke (Emily Bett Rickards), a single mother chasing a dream who would become the most famous female wrestler in the world at a time the sport was banned in most states.

Watson – Patient Question Mark

  • Title: Watson – Patient Question Mark
  • IMDb: link

Although we get threads involving Watson (Morris Chestnut) and Shinwell (Ritchie Coster) doing more odd jobs for Moriarty (Randall Park), the less effective aspects of the show are mostly kept on the backburner in “Patient Question Mark” in which Watson’s team searches out the family of Sasha’s (Inga Schlingmann) medical school cadaver to screen them for possible cancer. The journey will lead the group to Amish country, save the life of a young boy, and reunite a single mother with a larger family. Although not shown much on-screen, the trip also brings back memories for Watson and better days in his relationship with Mary (Rochelle Aytes).
