We get a great two-issue return to Vegas, and a great four-issue return of the Leader, allowing one of the Hulk's greatest foes to also bring this second volume to an end, as if he were ticking off each of the arcs in David's time. In the last half year (issues #395-400), the Hulk even returns to greatness. It's a good new direction for the Hulk, and as unique of a direction as when he was a legbreaker in Vegas. ![]() ![]() The whole idea of Banner being psychologically damaged was entirely new in the early '90s, and issue #377 was the strong culmination of that plotline, something that might not be as obvious from a generation later.Īs for the new status quo: it's great, not just because we get a smart Hulk, but also because we get the introduction of the Pantheon, a fun group of mythically themed characters operating in semi-secret doing semi-black-ops stuff. Peter David's second Omnibus starts off as a bit of a meander, but with issue #377, we get to the second big arc of David's time on the Hulk, as Bruce gets psychoanalyzed into reintegrating his personalities, resulting in the smart green Hulk. ![]() ![]() Scarlet is convinced that Liall is a worthless, immoral rogue, but when the hostile countryside explodes into violence and Liall unexpectedly fights to save the lives of Scarlet’s family, Scarlet is forced to admit that the Wolf is not the worst ally he could have, but what price will proud Scarlet ultimately have to pay for Liall’s friendship?

There are a few elements of that original story that certainly fail the test of time, like how big of a role reality television plays in the plot. Bush, the Patriot Act, and the early days of America's ongoing wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. ![]() The tension between Cap and Iron Man has been brewing throughout the past few Marvel movies, but the source material for Captain America: Civil War - a 2006 comic book crossover featuring the Avengers and other players in the Marvel universe - actually dates back 10 years or so, to a time of George W. ![]() And both are willing to use violence to make their point.īut ultimately, the fans will decide who the real hero and villain are. Both think they know what's best for their country and for the world. Each has very different ideas of what constitutes goodness and justice. These exceptional men represent two opposite views of how America should be run. This fight means something - something political. Nor is it a fight for no reason at all (as in Batman v Superman). And their battle is not about which man is stronger (Rogers) or which man is smarter (Stark). Steve Rogers (Chris Evans), are both "good" guys. Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.), and Captain America, a.k.a. It's a strange conflict - Iron Man, a.k.a.

Based on the diaries of Susanna Clark and Saviano’s 2016 book Without Getting Killed or Caught: The Life and Music of Guy Clark, the film tells the saga from Susanna’s point of view, with Academy Award- winner Sissy Spacek voicing Susanna’s narration. ![]() This 95-minute documentary follows Guy Clark, Susanna Clark, and Townes Van Zandt as they rise from obscurity to reverence: Guy, the Pancho to Van Zandt’s Lefty, struggling to establish himself as the Dylan Thomas of American music, while Susanna pens hit songs and paints album covers for top artists, and Townes spirals in self-destruction after writing some of Americana music’s most enduring and influential ballads. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() But I'm not really sure about my interpretation, since I find the scene somewhat confusingly written, and it seems like a revelation of that nature would merit more than a vague, throwaway paragraph. Read on below, and pre-order the book ahead. Maiming still-living animals ("She heard how he whispered to the struggling creatures: 'See? It's not so bad.you don't have to fly.'") is commonly a hallmark of sociopathy, and I think the author is trying to show that there was more going on with Tristan emotionally than what was on the surface. To preview her anticipated new series, the author has exclusively shared with EW the official Gilded Wolves book cover (above), as well as an excerpt.

I found it very disturbing, since before this revelation, I saw Tristan as the most innocent and sweet of the whole gang. It seems like he was conflicted about his actions, but kept doing it, almost like it was a compulsion. ![]() I think he was also using their feathers for his mini-terrariums. ![]() My understanding is that he ripped off their wings while they were still alive and then kept their corpses.

There are chases, murder and adventure in this part of the novel.Īs the “Blackouts” spread to the United States, there is lots of tension, riots, and fighting. The second half of the novel was intense where we discover the “who” and motivations involved. I found the first half of the novel a little slow moving with involved information of computer technology, grids, nuclear energy and the governmental controls.In the first part of the story, there are “Blackouts” that occur throughout Europe, and the scenes are pretty much the same. The genres of this novel are Mystery, Thriller, General Fiction(Adult).Īlthough this novel is written as fiction, the author gives us a taste of reality where it is very possible that hackers could take over all computer systems internationally and cause havoc, disaster, destruction and collapse of society as we know it. ![]() I would like to thank Sourcebooks Landmark and NetGalley for the ARC of “Blackout” by Marc Elsberg for my honest review. ![]() ![]() ![]() Once it became clear that two Sith just wouldn't cut it in the expanded world of Star Wars, the franchise added a new Sith rank. A similar role was also played by the Inquisitorius, a team of Force-sensitive warriors who were tasked with hunting down the remaining Jedi after Order 66. In essence, she wasn't training to become a Sith master, so there was no conflict. The series explained it away by saying that Vantress was a onetime Jedi Padawan who became a Sith assassin. But since Dooku was Darth Sidious' apprentice, this would break the Rule of Two. Asajj Ventress was introduced in The Clone Wars animated series as Count Dooku's apprentice. Still, the Rule of Two was essentially too limiting for the Star Wars franchise as a whole, and a workaround for the rule was eventually introduced.
