No, no, nononononono, no, NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. no…

Quite true.

…An actress even lighter-skinned and tinier than Saldana?!

It would, of course, be called Four Women.

I've often wondered why there isn't much exploration in biopics of the self-expatriation of African-formerly-American artists throughout the twentieth century. The buildup to a great artist like Nina - in a complicated mixture of righteous fury and egotism, by all accounts - deciding to say, "Fuck this forever" to…

It stinks!!

That's crazy talk. Major has had the most interesting character arc on the show, Liv included, and Robert Buckley has nailed every note on a broad spectrum.

"Bronze Age" is clunky, yes, but the absolute worst has to be "Dark Age". No one but Kurt Busiek should ever be allowed to use that.

It's actually a good ass-pull of a time period: 1984 is the year before CoIE, so you could call it the last full year of the Bronze Age.

Legend feels definitive. It's balancing all these disparate aspects of Wondy lore to really build the personality of both Diana and all of Themyscira in a way that feels true. And for a character whose very origin story writers just can't stop blowing up and retconning, not only is it quite an accomplishment, it's…

I haven't been keeping up, and have heard a bunch of grumbling about it lately, but the book that's won Best Ongoing three straight years not even being nominated is quite a cliff to fall off of. And in favor of a book that I've never found better than "okay", even in the early years. I suppose Kirkman is finally…

Good analysis.

This was the biggest "What?!" of this list for me. No Saga, but Invincible?

Quake, rattle and roll!

There was maybe a twenty or thirty minute stretch of the show, with a lot of dialogue and characters at odds - including an extended, heated four-way argument - where the writing, acting, and editing didn't hit a single wrong note. I was impressed.

See, I feel like this was one time it DIDN'T feel like a plot-necessitated development - the whiplash added to the drama (IMHO), rather than giving it an artificial mandate. It felt entirely organic to me, and I'm quite sensitive to the show's clunky machinations. I actually thought the review would reflect that…

"…and you're an Inhuman and you're an Inhuman and you're an Inhuman.."
"Get on with it!!"

"Secret Warriors" was just a red herring.

I don't agree with the review that the 180 turn from the glow of camaraderie to ugly paranoia was handled badly; I thought they needed to go right into a suspicion bomb directly from the post-mission high. It immediately gave higher stakes - the blossoming of a team ethic, dying as soon as it began - to the whole…

Never forget that opening scene. It's kind of the story of the entire show in a nutshell.
