Godzilla has been around for over half a century and, appropriately, always has something new looming on the horizon. Most of the time it’s a new movie or toy, occasionally it’s a video game or in the pages of a comic book. There’s even been novels that took place in Godzilla’s world, complete with epicContinue reading “The Animated Adventures of Godzilla”

The Sins of Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation
Let’s talk about the black sheep of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise, though that’s a loaded statement because depending on who you talk to the culprit might be any number of things. Someone deeply enamored with the original Mirage series might claim that the original cartoon is a bastardization of the characters, while othersContinue reading “The Sins of Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation”

Star Trek: Picard – The Death of Star Trek
Et tu, Jean-Luc? Star Trek: Picard will launch on CBS All Access in a few weeks. And it may very tragically ultimately be the death of Star Trek and Star Trek: The Next Generation. I will eventually get to why I fear so. One of my favorite writers is Scottish comic book writer Grant Morrison. Continue reading “Star Trek: Picard – The Death of Star Trek”
Es-Cape Plan Episode Five: Dice
Why I’m doing this…Previously on The Cape… Today’s episode features some of the creepiest interplay we’ve had in this series, which isn’t saying much since everyone save Trip has been able to interact like normal human beings. Speaking of Trip, we see him and his mother Dana so little in this episode in such disposableContinue reading “Es-Cape Plan Episode Five: Dice”
The CWisis on Infinite Earths Introduction
In addition to all the other projects he’s currently doing, Mikenificent is going to be recapping this year’s Arrowverse event for us because it’s the Crisis on Infinite Earths and it promises to be a doozy. Here’s a quick run-down, with some minor spoilers. The Crisis on Infinite Earths Basically, DC Comics acquired a numberContinue reading “The CWisis on Infinite Earths Introduction”
Es-Cape Plan Episode Four: Scales
Why I’m doing this…Previously on The Cape… This episode doesn’t introduce anyone new, opting instead to take all the elements it’s introduced thus far and shaking them up for what might be its best episode yet. Best of all, Trip and Dana were kept to a minimum. It’s Trip’s tenth birthday and Dana is unableContinue reading “Es-Cape Plan Episode Four: Scales”
Es-Cape Plan Episode Three: Kozmo
Why I’m doing this…Previously on The Cape… All our major characters were detailed in the intro to the last article so we won’t do it again. The only thing of note is that I’ve decided that I’m going to going to go ahead and spoil the Trip and Dana stuff at the beginning, and byContinue reading “Es-Cape Plan Episode Three: Kozmo”
Es-Cape Plan Episode Two: Tarot
Why I’m doing this…Previously on The Cape… Before we begin this week’s review, let’s quickly review our major characters: Vince Faraday (David Lyons) is the bearer of the titular Cape, which also serves as his super-hero name. He was framed for crimes he didn’t commit, left for dead, and rescued by some carnival workers whoContinue reading “Es-Cape Plan Episode Two: Tarot”
Es-Cape Plan Episode One: Pilot
Here’s what this is. Pilots are an odd bit of television, as they have to juggle introducing most of their principle cast members along with setting up the rest of the series and endeavoring to tell a decent narrative along the way. Did The Cape succeed in this, at least? We shall see. As theContinue reading “Es-Cape Plan Episode One: Pilot”
