Did that wizard come from the Moon, though?

Goodbye, <i>Peppa Pig</i><em></em>
Now playing

My seven-year-old daughter has gotten into some straight-up terrible TV shows of late. While I’m glad one of them is

He got to show his face in his Attack Of The Clones as Dannl Faytonni, negotiating with an officer from the Cleavage Guild.

Ms. Marvel seems like a no-brainer. Her debut in the comics was lauded for its inclusive cast, but perhaps the series deserves just as much credit for its staying power. And I think that has a lot to do with the way that Wilson and Alphona distilled and updated Marvel’s house style.

Read the first volume of G. Willow Wilson’s Ms. Marvel. It’s amazing. It’s the only comic where the superhero headquarters is a Circle K and where the villain is a cloned version of Thomas Edison and a parrot. Also, the characters are fully realized and not two-dimensional — even the stereotypical mean girl gets a lot

It’s really the writing. G. Willow Wilson’s New Jersey is filled with so many fun, fully-realized characters in Kamala’s orbit, and Ms. Marvel has a consistently funny and earnest voice.

Hopefully next up: Ms America, a queer Latina repping the red white and blue.

It’ll be worth it for the inevitable conservative freakout alone.

“We’re all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?”

Obligatory:

I think it’s going to be a lot like rogue one, mostly fine, with some good parts and maybe a shock or two. But mostly just fine. Howard is a competent film maker. It should be fine

Can’t tell if serious.

1. They are 60 minute pieces.
2. The tv show will be based on the novels, the games just have huge design influences.
3. Tv shows have very different storystructures, pacing and budgetconstraints then videogames/books, which requires extensive rewriting.
4. Writing’s hard, more people means faster scripts.

This is one hot take. Fresh out of the oven.

The TV series is based off of the novels. The games are sequels to the novels, so this is more of a straight-forward adaptation of a series of books.
