Does Rilke shit talking ZMF on the AVclub approach the level of courage that  Jesse showed when he stood up to Gus?  No, I suppose not, but still pretty ballsy.

Yeah that does make sense but if they did that we wouldn't have gotten the awesome scene with Skylar weaving a beautiful web of lies.

WHERE OR WHERE IS MY ZODIAC MOTHERFUCKER?  WHERE OH WHERE DID HE GO????

I'm marathon watching this show from the future and I just wanted to say how much I'm enjoying your great write ups.  I read them right after each episode and they have somehow made this great show even better.  I'm sure I'm not the only one who has done this so from all of us slow adopters I say thank you!

I really wanted to yell at leeharvey too but I couldn't come up with anything better than "self righteous prick" so instead I will just applaud you jerodast on a job well done.

The New 52 characters do not overwrite or "trash" the old continuity.  It still exists on it's own.  And just for the record I prefer the old genuinely and tragically romantic Freeze just like you, but this is a different universe so obviously some things need to be different.  You can still go read the hundreds of…

Yeah as much as I am enjoying this Court of Owls storyline, it does feel like a retread of Morrison's Black Glove arc.  It's like "The Black Glove for Dummies".  I have been laughing my ass off seeing all the same people who hated on the Morrison run heap insane amounts of praise on Snyder's run.
