Nah cilantro is like the villain of the week who occasionally turns good to defeat a greater evil.

The fucking capers man. Its like a Pickle pooped all over the chicken.

That looks... okay?

A villain who hates sandwiches? Truly, the greatest evil the world has ever faced.

Expanse drops you too, but it doesn’t even wait for you to land, it just throws more stuff at you. Killjoy is way more comfortable. “That’s the world, that’s what we do, that’s what they do” and so on. Clear and crisp.

Never saw either of those, so I can’t judge that description. I liked that Killjoys just dropped you into the universe and started the ball rolling. No 2-3 episode introduction (or longer) into the universe. You learn what you need to as you go along. The show rarely keeps important info hidden. Not enough

I tried to describe Killjoys to someone like that: “Imagine the guys from Warehouse 13 did Firefly.”

I know that it’s a smaller show that doesn’t get the exposure a lot of other shows do, but I think Killjoys is one of the most fun sci-fi shows to come out recently. I love The Expanse, I think it’s the best sci-fi on tv right now, but Killjoys is completely different and unashamedly fun.

At least there’s that.

If you’re on the fence, I watched it earlier, and I recommend it. This review... well, it makes the story seem more complicated than it is. All the threads are important, and the only one that isn’t paid off Smith’s family life. If you want a complaint about it, it’s only barely more subtle than “District 9.” And I’m

Its aim is to use our modern understandings of the fantasy genre and twist them to create a brand new world to tell multiple stories in.

“Teacher, I think I speak for the entire class when I say I’d rather have a pop quiz than a surprise Ivanka Trump visit. I’ll even go make the copies.”

Nope, the first trade is out, the second is coming soon.

People didn’t support it because the book was bad. This is a mercy-killing. If there was a few other comics with queer female lead, we wouldn’t even hear about it.

I really wanted to give the character a chance (I’ve never read Young Avengers and was really only familiar with her from Ultimates), but the writing on the comic just did not do it for me. I stayed with it for the first six issues, after that I just couldn’t justify the buy-in.

I bought every issue of America to do my lil part in attempting to encourage Marvel to do more stuff like this, but honestly cancelling it is doing the book a mercy. It reeeally never got any better. I hope this doesn’t taint Rivera’s comics career too seriously - she had some wonderful ideas, the execution was just

America also suffered from another unfortunate Marvel issue: assigning a book to a writer new to comics (usually from YA) and giving them no additional writing help. Sometimes this can result in a slow-moving, but good character building book (like Rainbow Rowell on Runaways), but other times this can result in a book

The Struckers work as the naive couple because they were part of the system that persecuted mutants and being now being on the other side of that for such a short time, because of their privilege still don’t understand the way the world really works. That their ways should be the only to work things out.

Sorry...I cannot read or hear Joe Quesada’s name without thinking of this:
