The Batman & Scooby-Doo Mysteries #5

Believing the location might hold secrets to solve his condition, Batman and Mystery, Inc. join Kirk Langstrom to visit the mansion of Dr, Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. The comic plays on the gang’s previous adventure at the mansion in “Nowhere to Hyde” from Scooby Doo, Where Are You! The investigation into a cure is quickly sidetracked both by the discovery of Mr. Hyde (Helga in the costume from the original series) haunting the mansion to protect its secrets and Langstrom transforming into Man-Bat.

Bend It Like Beckham

Parminder Nagra and Keira Knightley star in this 2002 sports dramedy as two young women striving to fulfill their dreams of playing soccer despite the disapproval of each of their mothers. Impressed by seeing her play in the park with local boys, Jules (Knightley) recruits Jess (Nagra) to play for the amateur women’s football team.

The Veil - The Camp

There’s an interesting idea at the heart of The Veil that might make for a tense 100-minute thriller. I have some doubts on whether or not it can be stretched over six hours, however. The first episode is mainly setup as MI6 Agent Imogen Salter (Elisabeth Moss) extracts Adilah El Idrissi (Yumna Marwan) from a refugee camp before she can be killed by those in the camp who have discovered she worked with ISIS. The premise of the show involves Imogene working the asset on the road while attempting to extract a vital piece of data without giving too much away. The setup isn’t half bad, foreshadowing issues MI6 may have with a trigger-happy American (Josh Charles) who isn’t too happy with the current situation.

NCIS: Hawai'i - Divided We Conquer

Setting a record for the shortest NCIS spin-off ever (there’s a challenge for you NCIS: Sydney), NCIS: Hawai’i kicks off its series finale with Dr. Analisa Cruz (Rachel Marsh) getting away with the bioweapon, NCIS: Elite dead, and Hanna (LL Cool J) getting infected by Compound-X. Tennant (Vanessa Lachey), Jesse (Noah Mills), and Dr. Chase (Seana Kofoed) work on keeping Hanna alive while Kai (Alex Tarrant), Lucy (Yasmine Al-Bustami), Ernie (Jason Antoon), and Whistler (Tori Anderson) work to track the missing terrorists (who return to Hawaii) and the Compound-X.

Space Ghost #1

Bringing the characters from the short-run 60s cartoon into the present, Space Ghost #1 gives the first meeting between the vigilante space cop Space Ghost and the young siblings Jace and Jan whose home is attacked, and whose father is killed, by space pirates whose numbers include fan-favorite Brak (albeit without his nasally charm). Reimagined with a more serious tone than the original series, Space Ghost gets a bit of the early days Batman treatment jumping out of the shadows with the evil-doers surprised that he actually exists and not sure what to make of him.
