Oh Charles, isn't it obvious?  Its Hoyt's mother.

@Kumagoro:  Looks like both series came out around the same time with Masquerade edging out Kim's book Anno Dracula by one year, though I think its not too farfetched to believe people could have a similar idea (Newman also wrote of vampire blood being distilled and used as a potent drug, a plot point which True Blood…

Per the favor to Jackie O response Ajax, as I said, you've read the story so you have more context than I do and I'll take your word for it (look, I thought the description of him planting a kiss on Marylin's ass was brilliant).  But even if there is a logic behind it (Blake carrying out a favor hit for Jackie, by the…

I haven't read these stories so take my comment with a grain of salt, but having the Comedian behind lots of notable assassinations of the '60's seems a cheap trick to me, one that goes to the well once to often with a compelling idea that Moore played maybe once and really more through inference, and that Zack Snyder…

The high point (ok, one of two high points) of this entire ep for me was Sookie throwing up her hands and going after Russell because of course that's what has to happen- some crackling dialogue with great delivery which reminds me that Anna Paquin can be very good when she's got good material.  Trouble is, it should…

I pegged Salome for the hidden Sanguinista due to her continually trying to punch up the idea in Meloni's head that his belief system isn't as strong as theirs and other vampires are starting to notice- that and the fact that every shot or mention of Nora has to have an accompanying cutaway of Salome looking stressed…

This was my take.  Its Hoyt.  He's going to a vampire bar to get abused.  Of course he's going to raid the late '80's section of a thrift store.

Ah the Kim Newman argument.  I don't know if TB has ever or will ever go that route of "bloodlines".  Certainly they've punched up the importance and responsibility of being a Maker, but they've never inferred or explored the idea that being made by  for example an Eric would give you some of his power versus being…

I was complaining to my wife that I blew an hour of Skyrim playing time for this show… again.  There are a lot of problems with this sentence, but not as many as with this show.

If I'm recalling this P&B episode correctly, this one caught my attention because at one point, it appears that Pinky dies falling of a cliff or something and The Brain, who up until now was this stoic presence who allowed Pinky to stumble around him actually threw a look at the camera that was all fear, panic and…

Dude and Joe Simon had Captain America punch Hitler square in the fucking face a year before American committment to the war.  Manly. The bucktoothed (with fangs!) yellow-colored Jap menace Cap subsequently fought?  Hmnnn.. ok, let's just shoo that under the carpet ; ).  Hitler punch rules.
