Forget the books, Don‘t forget about us!
It's been a minute, but we're back! Please remember us, even if you forget about this episode's boring books! It's time or a summary, but we can't remember what happened in these books. Probably for the best. But I'm certain we're still entertaining!! Join us as we strive to survive in the ......

Loki Ep 6 - For All Time. Always or All This for Kang?
Welcome back to our continuing coverage of Loki on Disney+ So all of this... for Kang. A 60 min "who is Kang" episode would have been better. Why did we watch this? ugh... Very excited to get back to covering comic books! Join us for a special trip into the MCU-verse!
-
Loki Ep 4 and 5 - The Nexus Event AND Journey Into Mystery
Welcome back to our continuing coverage of Loki on Disney+ Dan and Georgie decided they would put as much effort into episodes 4 and 5 of Loki, as the creators did. In fairness, Dan and Georgie probably put in a little more effort. If Easter Eggs and Effects made excellent storytelling, then...
-
Loki Episode 3 - Lamentis
Welcome back to our continuing coverage of Loki on Disney+ This week we got to meet stick-in-the-mud Sylvie and Nicholas Cage as Loki! Not the worst episode of TV we've seen, but we definitely had our complaints. BTW, a little bit of both I suspect, just like me.... Only 3 more episodes until…

Captain America and The Winter Soldier EP 6
Welcome back to the conclusion of our coverage of Captain America and the Winter Soldier! Quite a topsy turvy episode. So much to love. So much that didn't quite work. Why did we have the Flagsmashers at all? US Agent redeemed? And what a speech! We hope you enjoyed our time with Captain America…

Falcon and Winter Soldier Ep 5
Welcome back to our continuing coverage of Falcon and the Winter Soldier! Episode 5 was a bit of a surprise. It was a little quick, but tied up some plot threads fairly nicely. Great character moments, even if there wasn't a ton of action. Biggest complaint, the costume tease!! Just 1 episodes...
-
Falcon and Winter Soldier Ep4
Welcome back to our continuing coverage of Falcon and the Winter Soldier! The series is starting to show some cracks, most notably what happened to Battlestar/Lemar. But the appearance of the Dora Milaje and a harrowing end to the episode are also major talking points. Just 2 episodes left. Good...
