Nashville - Never No More

After four weeks in the hospital Rayna (Connie Britton) finally returns home, moving back in with Teddy (Eric Close) and the girls (Lennon Stella, Maisy Stella), as Juliette (Hayden Panettiere) continues to promote her new album while growing more and more frustrated when questions continually come back to her rival’s health. Both also have to deal with the new head of label (Oliver Hudson) who isn’t impressed with Juliette’s new mature sound (or her latest album sales) and signs a new artist (Aubrey Peeples) to capture the teen bubblegum market Juliette desires to leave behind. He also sets out to woo Will (Chris Carmack) away from Rayna’s new label and sign a new solo contract with the company.

Arrow - The Complete First SeasonThe CW’s take on Oliver Queen‘s (Stephen Amell) transformation from spoiled rich boy to hero after spending five years on a (not so deserted) island proved steady after some shaky beginnings. Along with Green Arrow (who was sadly referred to as “The Hood” or simply “the vigilante”) the show’s First Season included putting its spin on several DC characters including Dinah Laurel Lance (Katie Cassidy), Slade Wilson (Manu Bennett), Felicity Smoak (Emily Bett Rickards), Shado (Celina Jade), China White (Kelly Hu), Deadshot (Michael Rowe), and the dark archer Malcolm Merlyn (John Barrowman).

Mixing Oliver readjusting to life in Starling City with his mother (Susanna Thompson) and sister (Willa Holland), while also unleashing a deadly form of justice on the streets with the help of his hacker pal (Emily Bett Rickards) and bodyguard (David Ramsey), the First Season also included ongoing flashbacks to his time on the island.

G.I. JOE: Special Missions #7

/ / Comics

G.I. JOE: Special Missions #7The latest issue of G.I. JOE: Special Missions finds Zartan in on the run in the middle of the Australian Outback from both the JOEs and the Dreadnoks, who he abandons to pursue his mad dream of using the genetic information on the MARS device to populate the planet with an infinite number of Zartan clones.

With action both back at the Dreadnok base and in the various pursuits, as the JOES and Dreadnoks fight amongst themselves for who will get to Zartan first, G.I. JOE: Special Missions #7 is filled with a good amount of action and is available with a Torch variant cover (c’mon, you know you want one).

Zartan’s mad plans are (thankfully) short-lived and we won’t have to suffer through a battle of clones. But his abandonment of the Dreadnoks also suggests that might not be seeing them again going forward (and least not under his command). I’ve got to admit, this makes me a little sad. For fans.

[IDW, $3.99]

The Blacklist - The Freelancer

While the upper management debate Raymond Reddington’s (James Spader) motives and decline to give him immunity in exchange for the information he can provide, Reddington correctly predicts yet another attack which he claims was an assassination committed by a killer (Daniel Sauli) unknown to the FBI who disguises his jobs as accidents and everyday tragedies accounting for thousands of civilian causalities over the years.
