Emerald City - Everybody Lies TV review

The final scene of “Everybody Lies” is the most interesting of the entire episode as Dorothy‘s (Adria Arjona) journey to find the Wizard (Vincent D’Onofrio) comes to an end. Before we get there, however, there’s trouble for Dorothy and her new friends. Delivered into the clutches of West (Ana Ularu), Dorothy is caged and tortured by the witch who, despite her ability to read memories, is completely incapable of seeing the truth of Dorothy’s journey and the events concerning the witch’s death. Eventually helped by Tip (Jordan Loughran), Dorothy manages to escape and walk right into the Wizard’s private chambers carrying a loaded gun without a single guard offering even the most token effort of resistance.

Beyond - Fancy Meeting You Here TV review

“Fancy Meeting You Here” offers likely the final appearance of Emilija Baranac as Holden‘s (Burkely Duffield) new crush Jaime as a double date with Luke (Jonathan Whitesell) and his girlfriend (Jacky Lai) ends in another of coma boy’s freak-out sessions. While one door opens, a car accident following his meltdown jump-starts his memory and pushes Holden back into the arms of Willa (Dilan Gwyn), although still unaware of her true motivations. His desire to not return to the Realm and rash decision to end the episode is likely going to have consequences for both of them next week.

Justice League of America: Vixen Rebirth #1

/ / Comics

Justice League of America: Vixen Rebirth #1 comic reviewDC Comics’ Rebirth storyline continues with Justice League of America: Vixen Rebirth #1 which reintroduces readers to fashion model turned super-hero Vixen. Like other animal-powered DC heroes (Animal Man, B’wana Beast), Vixen has been largely a supporting player in the DCU since her introduction back in 1981. The Rebirth origins stay pretty faithful giving us a look back to Mari’s childhood and how the Tantu Totem (the magic necklace which gives her the powers and strengths of various animals when called upon) came into her possession.

Many may best remember her from her recurring role in Justice League Unlimited (voiced by Gina Torres), Vixen isn’t the most likely to star in her own comic (which is why she gets a Justice League of America: Rebirth issue rather than her own self-titled one-shot).

Emerald City - Science and Magic television review

The fourth episode of Emerald City reveals the identity of a the Tin Man to be Jack (Gerran Howell), who turns out to be less a dead boy then a living cyborg thanks to the intervention of a scientist (Gina McKee) and the interest of the mysterious Lady Ev (Stefanie Martini). In plot threads that mostly flounder, Tip (Jordan Loughran) is given the opportunity to join either Glinda (Joely Richardson) or West (Ana Ularu), but neither makes a very convincing case for their side, and the Wizard (Vincent D’Onofrio) investigates the use of forbidden magic.

Red Sonja #0

/ / Comics

Red Sonja #0 comic reviewDynamite Entertainment’s new series gets a preview with this twenty-five-cent issue featuring Red Sonja hired by the citizens of Meru to put down a demon. After taking down the creature she also has a short run-in with Kulan Gath before things get weird. Awaking in caves, Sonja begins her journey to the service only to discover she’s not in Kansas, or Meru, anymore.

Beginning with the next issue, the new volume of Red Sonja takes place in modern day where a woman in a chain-mail bikini holding a very large sword is a tad bit conspicuous. Laying the groundwork for the new series, the zero issued gives us more classic She-Devil with a Sword action before transporting to new surroundings.
