Having now caught up with Ponderosa, I think I would watch a show in which Savage and Kass open a law firm together. I find this as disturbing as you do.

My we shall reign supreme!

Probably right. Although I will say Kimmi has orchestrated or been key to a few moves, while Keith tends to flounder strategically while doing very well in challenges — especially for his age!

STICK TO THE PLAN

While I don't think I'd ever want to see Keith win (at least among a group as strong as this), the guy is definitely out there playing, even if he's barely treading water in the strategic deep end. What I'm saying is, I'm glad Keith made the finale, and I like that he's the most goat player left in a field of very…

Re: Jeremy and Wentworth both playing Idols… I want this now.

Exactly. But "Okay then…"

God damn, I love this show. Nine episodes in and still surprising me. I absolutely loved Mike Milligan showing up, surveying the scene, and hightailing it out of there. Some other show might have had Milligan show up at about the time the flying saucer did. Not this one.

Doc Shaner does not draw enough things.

I didn't… hate this trailer?

I saw it after it aired, knowing the ending and some of the big moments, and it's still one of my favorite seasons. Great pre-merge, fun post-merge. Highly recommended.

I believe so. The timeline seemed pretty clear to me.

Glad to see Zach didn't have as much trouble grasping the time "jump" as Sepinwall did. It seemed pretty obvious to me that more than a day had passed, given Bear's window-washing assassination and the general length of time it takes to procure a headstone and prep someone for burial (RIP Otto).

Yeah, next issue comes out next week. It's one of my favorite comics right now. Tom King is a writer people should be paying attention to, between this, Grayson, and The Vision. His Darkseid War Green Lantern one-shot was also something special.

Please do! It's one of the few comics that regularly made me laugh out loud.

Scandal's back, though not a focus character. She's popped up in a few issues alongside Jeannette and Ragdoll.

Batman and Robin with Dick and Damian are just about the best Batman stuff Morrison's done, largely because it can stand on its own and is just plain FUN. That said, I also really liked the early Black Glove stuff. It's really fun to go back and pick up on how certain things fit together, though.

Those two are wonderful series, and Marcos Martin art can sell me on just about anything.

It really does seem that way, doesn't it? Honestly, in a way he's better suited to being the glue that holds the DCU together than Batman is. Dick's someone who's defined by his relationships and growth, after all.

Nothing stood out as terribly great this week.
