The final season of The Blacklist continues to play back its hits with the return of the Troll Farmer (Aaron Yoo) from Season 3 now working for Wujing (Chin Han) to steal a cutting-edge cyber-weapon from the NSA. The theft goes off without a hitch, althought the task force is able to capture him somewhat easily afterwards. While getting their hands on the Blacklister, and another couple familiar faces, Wujing continues to illude the task force’s grasp and the exact target he had for the malware remains a mystery.

Rogue & Gambit #2

Rogue & Gambit #2 features a short respite for both Rogue and Gambit who find themselves in the middle of nowhere with their powers malfunctioning allowing them a rare opportunity to give into their desires (at least on a PG-rated level) before Black Panther shows up leading to a fight between the three characters in a sleepy town over the location of a common ally.

The Mandalorians – Guns for Hire / The Spies

The two episode building to the season finale focus on bringing the Mandalorian tribes back together and the return to their homeworld. Well, that is except for another side quest that takes up 90% of “Guns for Hire,” but at least this one involves our main character. Feeling like a mix of world building and rehash of previously defeated villains, with some odd Asimov-ish droid plot thrown in, neither episode is bad but neither really focuses on either the characters or the plot offering something new. That’s not to say there aren’t enjoyable moments, such as Grogu thoroughly enjoying his new murderous mode of transportation (which also allows him to more easily communicate to the other characters).

The Tenth, and final, Season of The Blacklist continues to revisit former Blacklisters with the return of Alban Veseli (Daniel Sauli) who makes an attacks on a New York ferry and high-scale hotel. Believing someone onboard was targeted by Veseli for Wujing (Chin Han), the team investigates but Reddington (James Spader) comes to believe there was no specific target in either instance but rather an attempt to confirm Reddington’s connection to the FBI through a photographer (Kristopher Kling) capturing the FBI’s response to each attack.

Hellboy in Love #4

Finding themselves somehow transported to Mediaeval Turkey, Hellboy and Anastacia look into the history of the shadow puppet theater and the characters of Karagöz and Hacivat, who, if the legends are true, were wrongly executed and cursed. The comic takes some bizarre turns, including both Hellboy and Anastacia getting transformed into puppets for several panels. While the adventure is hit-and-miss, but does show how strong a character Anastacia can be helping to convince the cursed to break their pattern.
