Although Jeff (Joel McHale), who is far more concerned about having to make up a credit over the summer when a professor leaves Greendale unexpectedly, takes the news in stride the rest of the study group struggles to deal with the unexpected death of Star-Burns (Dino Stamatopoulos) whose final wish was for Abed (Danny Pudi) to create a video tribute of his life (which we see during the closing  credits). Britta (Gillian Jacobs) elects herself the group’s grief counselor, with mixed results.

Snake Eyes #12

/ / Comics

snake-eyes-12-coverBefore rejoining the Arashikage Clan and partnering with Storm Shadow to destroy Cobra, Snake Eyes takes a trip to the Hard Master, the clan’s former leader who helped train the JOE years ago.

While conversing with his former master (or as much conversing as a mute can do) Snake Eyes presents his reasons for returning to the clan and learns how he can be of assistance in the neighborhood as the Hard Master’s latest student, a teenage girl has been targeted by a local gang.

The standalone tale is a bit of the curiosity as it’s almost completely outside the ongoing “Cobra Command” crossover. However, the story does serve as a reminder how dangerous and honorable a man our hero is as well as give another plausable explanation for him joining Storm Shadow (other than simply destroying Cobra).

Next month gives us a new beginning as the title become Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow and the pair go after their first target – Zartan. Worth a look.

Daredevil #11

/ / Comics

daredevil-11-coverConcluding a storyline that begin in Avenging Spider-Man #5 and continued in Punisher #10 (two comics I didn’t read) Daredevil #11 finds our hero teamed with Spider-Man and the Punisher. His plan to lure Megacrime out into the open using the Omega Drive as bait has hit something of a snag as the threesome find themselves betrayed by Castle’s partner and surrounded by A.I.M. and HYDRA agents.

Although I didn’t read the first two issues of this arc, it’s pretty easy to get up to speed. Honestly, what I found the hardest to wrap my brain around was the fact the Punisher A) had a beard and B) had a female sidekick. Seriously, when did this happen?

As Daredevil chases down Rachel to retrieve the drive Spidey and the Punisher (who is trying very hard not to kill anyone) give the beatdown to a number of terrorist soldiers in ridiculous costumes.
