Redubbing and a really stilted guest cast holds back this week's #StarTrek from being on the same level of The Measure of a Man. This is The Ensigns of Command:

It’s a big old classic tournament arc from Scott Snyder! Except no it isn’t actually, it looks like DC K.O. is actually going to be a beautiful mess of a tournament arc tying together maybe everything DC has been doing in the last few years? Issue 1 is great.

The Last Halloween is nearly over, at least we think (it keeps getting delayed) but the penultimate issue is great right up until the twist that feels a bit out of character but then again there’s one issue left.

Season 3 of #StarTrek The Next Generation opens with an episode that really can just serve as a baseline for what good The Next Generation looks like. Evolution is not the , but it is confident in its identity and what it wants to accomplish:

9/10 bad guys in children's mystery books are angling for property rights. It's a marvel anyone grows up to be a real estate agent.

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

And Matt Fraction says ACAB (or as close as you can get in Batman) and uses Tim Drake quite well.

I finally convinced @jomoblooddonut.bsky.social to add #Batman to the rotation of Fresh-Faced One Shots and Matt Fraction’s run starts with a bang and a fantastic done in one.

Luke Cage becomes Power Man for the utter silliest of reasons in today’s episode of Fresh-Faced Comics. @jomoblooddonut.bsky.social and I also get to talk about Mr Fish and just how overworked the team at Marvel were in this period.

Joey Morgan @jomoblooddonut.bsky.social · 12d

I wonder how he got that cool new name...

The latest episode of Fresh-Faced Comics is here, in which @newt5996.bsky.social and I discuss Volume 2 of #LukeCage, Power Man!

Available anywhere you listen to podcasts! :)

Season 2 of #StarTrek The Next Generation ends with an incoherent, effortless clip show. So here's a mostly incoherent, effortless clip review:
