Fallout - The Target

“The Target” introduces us to Dr. Siggi Wilzig (Michael Emerson), teasing his importance and knowledge, and working as the catalyst to also bring our three main characters together for the first time in Filly. Lucy (Ella Purnell) is the first to come across the scientist, first camping on the road, and later in the town which will also see the arrival of the Ghoul (Walton Goggins) and Maximus (Aaron Moten) wearing the armor of Knight Titus which he will claim as his own after choosing not to save the knight from his preventable run-in with a mutation he had planned to blame his squire for.

Fallout - The End

Adapted from the post-apocalyptic video game series, the opening episode of Fallout gives us the end of the world and then what comes next. After a brief introduction to the world before nuclear annihilation, we jump to the late 23rd Century to spend most of the episode with Lucy (Ella Purnell), the daughter of Vault 33’s Overseer Hank MacLean (Kyle MacLachlan), and her life within 50s-style fallout shelter. While keeping specifics to a minimum, we know that the vaults were constructed to continue humanity’s survival (although we get allusions that there were more nefarious purposes as well).

Darth Vader #45

Darth Vader #45

Having decided to join the Imperial Schism, a faction in favor of replacing Emperor Palpatine for the good of the Galactic Empire, Darth Vader finds himself on Tython looking raid a former Jedi Temple of precious Kyberite. The issue has two main pieces that make it an interesting read, and for those who haven’t been following this Schism storyline (like me) there’s still plenty to enjoy. First we get the loyal Enric Pryde and his discussions with others in the party who lack his steadfast loyalty to the Dark Lord of Sith with their own, less glorious, examples of Vader’s actions.
