Spidey Super-Stories #32

Spidey Sunday takes us back to the late 70s and the first time Spider-Man met Spider-Woman. The two-part story is a bit bonkers, following the basic formula of a super-hero misunderstanding when Peter and Aunt May arrive in London and Peter discovers a Spider-Woman is on a crime-spree. Suiting up, he tracks down and fights Spider-Woman until he discovers it’s not the same woman committing the crimes, and that an imposter is working for Doc Ock. Teaming up, the pair take down the fake, although Doc Ock gets away (along with any rationale for this bizarre scheme).

Catwoman #62

Catwoman #62

Catwoman #62 continues the “Nine Lives” storyline in which writer Tini Howard keeps finding ways to kill off Catwoman and bring her back for more. My real interest in the comic isn’t in the story itself, although Catwoman fulfilling an old debt by agreeing to work a single case for Amanda Waller‘s Suicide Squad is an interesting set-up, but the number of characters with ties to the Secret Six including both Black Alice and Jeannette who are part of Catwoman’s team in stealing an artifact from Black Adam.

NCIS: Hawai'i - License to Thrill

Somebody has been watching Point Break. Recovering from an opening with laughably inept performances by both bank security guards and local police (the GCPD in the 60s Batman show were more convincing) allowing a band of thieves on motorcycles to escape, “License to Thrill” wins back some good will with a dumb, but fun, episode playing largely on Jesse (Noah Mills) looking back on the road not taken. There’s not much to the episode other than the team working to identify the stunt-riders turned robbers, with more of Tennant (Vanessa Lachey) struggling, and failing, to discover what Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) is really doing on the island, but there are some fun moments here and there in Jesse shaking dust off some forgotten skills and Whistler (Tori Anderson) attempting to blend in at a supercross rally.

The Irrational - Reciprocity

The Irrational closes out its first season solving the murder of Jace (Brian King) and the true (and more than slightly convoluted) motivations behind the 20 year-old bombing and bringing Senator Sanford (James Tupper) to justice. In what appears to be the continuing small shakeup to the status quo, The Irrational doubles down on its connection to the FBI with Kylie (Travina Springer) taking a federal job and Phoebe (Molly Kunz) exits stage left for new position with less health risks. The awkwardly tacked-on epilogue also suggests Rose (Karen David) will be returning for at least part of next season.

G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #304

There isn’t that much of note in G.I. JOE: A Real American Hero #304 which confirms that Snake Eyes and Scarlett aren’t dead (to the surprise of absolutely no one) and the continuation of the partnership between the mutations from Cobra Island led by Serpentor Khan and Revanche. It’s not a bad issue by any means, just a bit of a middling middle issue of a larger arc slowly pushing events forward.
