White Collar returned last week with a strong mid-season opener which answered several questions (such as what happened to Mozzie, and who wants the music box) as well as unite several supporting characters to come to Peter’s (Tim DeKay) defense after he’s framed for a crime which would ruin his entire career.

The conclusion of “The Crisis on Infinite Darkwings” is as crazy as it sounds as various versions of Darkwing Duck from every different parallel world (my favorite might be The Doctor Darkwing) band together to stop the “uber evil” of Paddyquack and the giant version of Negaduck from destroying St. Canard.
Taken from film, television, comics, and even (gasp!) classic literature, there’s a variety Darkwings adding the zaniness paying homage to everything from The Wizard of Oz to Davy Crockett. And, in true Darkwing style, all of his city saving antics only bring more people to distrust his intentions. I’m a little disappointed with the apparent end of Gosalyn‘s adventures in the Gizmoduck armor as “Gosmoduck,” but that’s really my only complaint.
Crazy fun all around, and once again the comic delivers with yet another very cool old school Batman-inspired variant cover (this one by Diego Jourdan).

Last night’s episode of The Big Bang Theory found Leonard (Johnny Galecki), Sheldon (Jim Parsons), Penny (Kaley Cuoco), Raj (Kunal Nayyar), Howard (Simon Helberg), Bernadette (Melissa Rauch), and Amy Farrah Fowler (Mayim Bialik) all on the road to a science symposium at an exclusive spa.

Batgirl and Robin, together again. YES! I just love Stephanie and Damian together.
The pair team-up to solve a case of missing children which leads Damian to go undercover as a regular kid (much to the delight of Batgirl). We get the regular barbs between the two on a fire escape in front of a low level thug, but there’s also a nice realization by Batgirl when she sees Damian doesn’t know how to be a kid. He doesn’t know how to play. Her attempt to remedy this in the comic’s final page is priceless.
There’s also a good opening dialogue between Damian and Alfred, who Damian has come to accept as “an adequate servant,” and the random panel of Stephanie’s dream mumblings about killing Abraham Lincoln. Throw in a high speed chase involving a school bus, which Damian stabs (successfully) and attempts to drive (a little less successfully), and you’ve got everything you need for a great read!

After a brief winter hiatus Chuck returned with our favorite underachieving geek turned spy looking for the perfect scenario to propose to Sarah (Yvonne Strahovski). The mission to recover the microchip gives us several fun moments including a late twist foreshadowed earlier in a conversation between Sarah and Gen. Beckman (Bonita Friedericy), Sarah pretending to be drunk, and Morgan and Chuck’s (Zachary Levi) homage to The Court Jester as Chuck frantically searches for a “peppery pinot with a stable on the label on the cork.”
