Much better, yes. Still terrible, also yes.

Mr. Spacely is a disembodied voice that George is beginning to wonder isn’t a manifestation of his own internal struggles with authority, and he is beginning to suspect that Rosie may be a sleeper agent from Cogswell Cogs as he slips further and further into paranoia and disassociation. Elroy has created a comic strip…

Maybe if Zombie’s dark, tragic take on The Munsters is a success, we’ll get that paranoid Philip K. Dick/William Gibson reboot of The Jetsons I’ve always wanted, in which Jane is addicted to designer drugs that allow her to dream of a better life on Mars and Elroy is under the influence of a malevolent AI.

Yeah I have to remember to hit “Paste as plain text” to avoid links getting Kinja’d.

the reason she makes the decision to die and go out with one last turn as Thor is not for the love of the life that she lived so vigorously in defiance of her illness, but... well, the other love of her life, Thor Odinson

The way I took it was she wasn’t going to let Thor face the big bad alone, and wanted to save the children.

Not for love or because of a boy... but willing to sacrifice to do the right thing... even if it killed her.

A two hour movie was never going to give Jane’s Mighty Thor the range and depth of experiences she had in the comic. Comics exist for stories like that where you can spend dozens of issues letting a character grow and develop. Even if Jane survived Love And Thunder it was going to be a greatest hits version.

and get your boosters if you have not already done so. 

Please get vaccinated if you haven’t already.

Perhaps but she died because she picked up Mjolnir and went into battle one last time. The idea being, if she stayed back in New Asgard, she may have been okay but she chose to sacrifice her life to save others.  Whatever magic determines that one is worthy of Valhalla probably understood that.  At least that’s how I…

They must think he’s the one cast as Hercules because he’s the one cast as Hercules.

Jesus Christ why is this a slideshow. Do you hate your readers that much?

The pointlessness of The Deep is kind of the point… as is his DC inspiration aqua-man. The uselessness on a team where you can only fully be useful in the ocean… and all the insecurities that creates for a character like that… is very much the point. It’s also about him being a bitch. Homelander’s, then a cult’s,…

Deep is a spineless, pathetic sycophant. That works for Homelander and his designs on a Team Seven he controls with absolute, uncontested authority. And, of course, Homelander is a raging sadistic asshole who loved being able to shove Starlight’s abuser in her face. It was a win-win move for him.

yeah, Valhalla was never exclusively for gods

I’ve been enjoying this series, but this episode tried to fit far too many story beats into such a small episode. The ClanDestine story can’t be over yet; otherwise, it will come across as a drastically missed opportunity. And why is Damage Control being propped up as a villain? Bureaucratic? Sure. Villainous? Nah.

Did anyone else feel like the crystals they crumbled into are going to be the Terrigen Crystals of the MCU?

Or at the very least that random appearances of Noor in the world will act like the Terrigen Mists. Maybe only hybrids will be able to survive exposure. From seeing Kamran get empowered, it looked like he initial…

I’ve seen scuttlebutt that Krysten Ritter has been in talks to bring JJ back, so this timing would pan out. Some of those earlier rumors had her pegged as appearing in She Hulk (she’d make an awesome client for Jennifer and it would be comics appropriate).

I, uh, would argue that Punisher definitely tops Jessica Jones for ‘least Disney friendly.’ It’s just as dark and far more graphically violent.

It’s all really, really dumb. If Marvel Studios doesn’t trust the people they hire not to illegally upload screeners to the internet, then they probably shouldn’t have been hired in the first place.
