Trying to do a little catch-up, probably will fail. I'm so busy writing all the time I no longer have time to write.
This week's movie was The Adventures of Young Indiana Jones Chapter 16: Tales of Innocence (1917-18) - Indy is a rival to Ernest Hemingway? And then joins the foreign legion? Funny and dramatic in the same adventure. The contrast of Hemingway and Indy fighting over a young lady with the later innocent flirtation with Edith Wharton made this one work as a movie, even if the dates were technically off. Another good one.
- Feb 8th
- Powers #8 - Complicated, and made harder to understand by the long gaps between issues, but still strangely compelling.
- Northlanders #48 - Bit brutal in parts, but a nice set up for the rest of the tale.
- Mister Terrific #6 - Still something off about this book, but this issue wasn't bad.
- Green Lantern #6 - Hal finally adjusts to his lanternless state... and along comes Sinestro? This issue was a jolt, to see the worst possible thing for Hal being the return of the ring.
- Resurrection Man #6 - Ah, Mitch breaks out of Arkham, the only way he can. Liked it.
- Batman: The Brave and the Bold #16 - Wow I hate Bat-Mite.
- Doctor Who Classic Series IV #1 - Nice little locked-door mystery with a bit of silliness.
- SpongeBob Comics #7 - Yay, Mermaid Man!
- Peanuts #2 - Not bad at all. In fact, some really good stuff in here.
- Feb 15th
- Grimm Fairy Tales Presents the Library #4 - Yup, it's sticking to the formula a bit, but adding to it. Not bad.
- Green Lantern Corps #6 - Creative use of prisoners. Particularly nasty use, but creative.
- Young Justice #13 - Ah, this one is all about Aqualad, even when it isn't. Yay!
- Fables #114 - Sinister. And a little bit of Oz at the end.
- Feb 22nd
- Aquaman #6 - Aquawoman kicks butt! And I like Jennifer, as well.
- Green Lantern: New Guardians #6 - It's freaky to see the spectrum of lanterns working together. Not sure I like it.
- No Place Like Home #1 - Another dark version of Oz, sort of, but a new angle, it appears. More horror than fantasy. Eh, I'm doomed to read every take on Oz out there.
- Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz #5 - Ah, land of the wooden gargoyles. Fun stuff.
- Feb 29th
- Usagi Yojimbo #144 - A nice straightforward ending to the story of soy sauce.
- Justice League #6 - Eh. I hope that bit with Pandora means they're going to bring back the real DCU sometime.
- Batman Beyond Unlimited #1 - A little bit of Aquagirl, but she's on monitor duty? *sigh*
- Tiny Titans #49 - Plenty of Aqualad in this one! Aw yeah, Aqualad!
- Mar 7th
- Justice League International #7 - And it all falls down.
- Doctor Who Classic Series IV #2 - Neat little mystery. And in comic book form it works out as a done-in-one. Nice.
