“Consider me a spider. I sit motionless at the center of my web. That web has a thousand radiations and I know well every quiver of each of them. I do little myself. I only plan, but my agents are numerous and splendidly organized.”

Elementary - Risk Management

After being contacted by a man claiming to be the ever elusive Moriarty, Sherlock Holmes (Jonny Lee Miller) agrees to investigate a unsolved case the voice on the other end of the phone brings to his attention concerning a man stabbed and robbed in Brooklyn several months ago. Despite Watson’s (Lucy Liu) legitimate concerns, Holmes agrees to investigate, hoping the case will reveal a connection between the murder victim and Moriarty’s organization and get him one step closer to the man he suspects murdered Irene Adler (Natalie Dormer).

Super Dinosaur #19

/ / Comics

Super Dinosaur #19Derek Dynamo and Super Dinosaur get their first taste of Tyrannosaurus X when the super-powered dinosaur version of Max Maximus battles the two heroes above the Statue of Liberty and all through New York City.

The pair have their hands full with a villain whose at least as smart as Derek and more powerful than Super Dinosaur. In terms of action Super Dinosaur #19 certainly delivers as the entire comic (aside from the scenes shown in Dynamo Dome) are all focused on the fight (and Tyrannosaurus X kicking our heroes butts).

Although Derek and SD win the day (with a little luck and a giant explosion from SD’s overloaded armor), the comic does a good job of setting up Tyrannosaurus X as a legitimate threat in a way that mad scientist Max Maximus never quite worked. Here’s hoping we see much more of the new super-villain in the coming months. Worth a look.
