Action Comics #1051 kicks off a new Superman-Family focus for the title with the family adopting Osul-Ra and Otho-Ra and showing up in force the opening of Steelworks Tower (which doesn’t got quite as planned thanks to the arrival of Metallo). The comic also offers not one but two ongoing back-up stories keeping with this theme. The first takes place during Jon Kent‘s childhood and the second centers around Power Girl attempting to understand her new powers with the help of Omen as the pair attempt to help a pair of Titans in need.

There are two plotlines at play in “Druz’ya I Vragi” involving the kidnapping of Czech president Alena Kovac (Nina Hoss) by her bodyguard Radek (Adam Vacula) and Jack (John Krasinski) leading a small team in the search of the not-so-abandoned Sokol facility for the nuclear weapon (which he discovers has been fashioned to look like an American warhead). Both plots provide action with Jack’s team shooting their way in and out of the facility, but failing to get their hands on the device, and Radek and Petr (Peter Guinness) hunting each other in the woods leading to Alena finally learning, and accepting, some harsh truths about her father.

Night Court – Just Tuesday

  • Title: Night Court – Just Tuesday
  • IMDb: link

The third episode into a series is a bit early for a character to have a major crisis of faith that changes their behavior, but that’s what’s on tap for “Just Tuesday” after Abbie Stone (Melissa Rauch) over corrects when accidentally outing an undercover cop. The police’s attitude to the court trickles down to Olivia (India de Beaufort) who finds herself not getting her usual special perks for the job. In true sitcom fashion, by the end of the episode everything is reset back to normal with a few words from Dan (John Larroquette), some of which land him temporarily in contempt of court. Some fun moments here and there, but a bit of an odd episode to be set so early in the series.
