After the introduction of Dr. Woody Farrier as the new Cryptozoologist for the B.P.R.D. we get a few single-panel snapshots of his adventures with Hellboy over a few years (leading to resentment over time at the pull of field work versus scientific exploration in the lab) before the two show up in Sutton, West Virginia, in 1957 to investigate a flying saucer.

She-Hulk: Attorney at Law – Episode 1

  • Title: She-Hulk: Attorney at Law – A Normal Amount of Rage
  • IMDb: link

Originally introduced back in 1980, She-Hulk has been around the Marvel Universe as a member of various teams include the Avengers and the Fantastic Four but her greatest success came from the 1989 series by John Byrne who kept the character in Hulk mode permanently, allowed her to break the fourth-wall and talk directly to the writer, and often had fun satirizing the hero genre and pushing the limits of the Comics Code.

Throwback Thursday takes us back to the unsolved crimes of passion in the wealthy playground of Palm Beach, Florida. “Lady Luck” is notable for offering no opening narration, usually featuring some kind of golf metaphor, to set the stage of the crime either pre or post credits.

While working out some internal conflict between Tom (Jeremy Shada) and D’Angelo (Marcus Scribner), “The Tangled Web” introduces a new species of Spdierwings to the series whose robust webs nearly prove to be the end of and the arachnophobic Jun (Ashley Liao). While the Tom/D’Angelo tension seems ramp-up and then be diffused a bit too conveniently to fit all in the single episode, it does deal with the more rule-abiding and structured Dragon Rider’s conflict over his actions in the caves.
