Community - Intro to Felt Surrogacy

After the Study Group returns from their forest adventure in an uneasy silence and missing Pierce (Chevy Chase), Dean Pelton (Jim Rash) forces the group into puppet therapy with his collection of puppets in each of their likenesses he just happened to have on hand. The episode’s flashbacks are told entirely through showing the Greendale Six as puppets (while real-life actors fill in other roles), sometimes in song.

Winter Soldier #17

/ / Comics

Winter Soldier #17After uncovering the identity of the “Electric Ghost” a pissed off Winter Soldier realizes why Nick Fury wanted him on this assignment as the last time Bucky saw the woman responsible for terrorist attacks around the world he was still brainwashed and working for the Russians and she was a young girl whose parents he had just murdered in front of her.

Once Fury fills him in on how bad things have gotten thanks to this Russian-bred madwoman enhanced by the same Cosmic Rays which gave the Fantastic Four their powers, Bucky and S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Joe Robards have no choice but to risk their lives by heading into space, sneaking aboard the woman’s cloaked satellite and eliminating the threat once and for all.

After the heavy set-up, questionable plot choices, and goofy island of assassins, writer Jason LaTour finally seems to be settling down with the character. Winter Soldier #17 has a Bond-like quality (even if that Bond is Moonraker), that fans of the character may enjoy. For fans.

[Marvel, $2.99]

Worlds’ Finest #11

/ / Comics

Worlds' Finest #11How are Apokolips weapons in the Congo, money stolen from Wayne Enterprises, and the attack on Starr Enterprises by soldiers working for Mr. Terrific all related? That’s what the Huntress sets out to find in this latest issue of Worlds’ Finest.

After artist Kevin Maguire returned last month to give the comic the first cohesive look in it’s almost full-year run, the artist is absent as three separate artists fill-in giving the comic the kind of haphazard look fans have come to expect.

The Huntress takes center stage here as the entire comic, aside from another somewhat unnecessary flashback to the early days of the pair being stuck on an alternate Earth, takes place from her point of view. It’s a good choice that showcases the character’s detective skills before she heads off to a party with Power Girl, looking for answers from Michael Holt.

I don’t know what’s happened to Mr. Terrific (or really care, for that matter) but the appearance of Desaad in the comic’s final panel means the Apokolips storyline is heating up again. For fans.
