By now, you’ve probably noticed these are coming through a week or two later than usual, as headlines themselves may suggest.

So it happens that all of a sudden, you’re seeing February reviews at the start of March, March ones at the start of April…hey.  Life gets in the way, and for someone who’s ostensibly out of the corporate workforce of late, it’s been at least twice as busy – working on the reboot of a certain podcast only being a small part thereof.

But even more than that, there’s been a welcome increase in folks coming to us, offering up their rosters for our delectation and dissection…or if you prefer, to the vagaries of critical review, in our patented honest, straightforward, incisive and idiosyncratic manner.

Like I always tell my wife, love us or hate us, you sure as hell ain’t gonna find nobody else like us.  Selah.

For more, check out our review of The Wolverine, from back in 2013…or our lengthy chat over at Weird Scenes on superhero television (and TV movies) from the 70’s to today.

Enjoy!

If this last few weeks has taught me anything, it’s simply to reaffirm a long held apprehension that the sentiments of Sartre were dead on: “hell is other people.”

Enough Nominally Normative Nostalgic Nonsense, it’s time for the Nascent Nonchalance of the New Year’s Roundup!
