So two characters are introduced at the end of Issue 1. Gotham and Lady Gotham, two Superman-ish 80s Batman characters. They have super strength etc..
Batman doesn't trust em but Gordon wants the help, which is kinda overkill.
They're not written with much depth, but since John's wrote Superboy Prime in one week why not?
Teenage whiny people like Red Hood without the intellect in 2016's, although Lady Gotham's explanation of stuff was alright.
Too many Gotham puns on saving Gotham.

Frank Miller's Holy Terror review
I wonder if it was censored, because it wasn't as anti-Muslim as I hear his Batman comic got. Sure, it shows a stereotype, but there are type of people that were like that and even Frank Miller's Fixer character wasn't even a real pure hero anyway.
Flashpoint: Batman seems to be a great entry into the 52 multiverse
Thomas Wayne seems a bit more comic booky than in the Dini/Timmverse version, and a lot more is explored than sharing the spotlight with many in a 90 minute film. Really cool.
Also, unfortunately, this also makes the Joker Martha Wayne even more forced in the film, as it was obviously a lame attempt to snag fans from this series, even though it's minor and even distracting to Flash's story in Flashpoint. I definitely would've edited Martha Joker out.
Wayne seems more in tune with Gordon and uses his wealth a lot better than Bruce. Thomas is older and has more experience with the expenses.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers #9 Boom review
Rita looked like she had the power of the Dinozords to wreck the city, but maybe I lost an issue. I think it was actually her control of the Black Dragon that had her vs the rest of the Rangers. It's one of those Evangelion-ish monsters, that the BOOM Comics writers promised and I am satisfied with.
Billy converses with Goldar on where Goldar wants to have his powers. The development of both characters here is quite enjoyable.
They use a device from the Dragonzord to give the Rangers back their powers. They form the Green Power Rangers, Green clad Rangers with powers of the Green Power Coin but with their original dinozords. The Rangers morph in one brief scene. The fight isn't shown regretably, but what have you?

Green Lantern (2011) review 5 years later
The Dark Knight Rises and Avengers came out the next year.
They say he's Hal Jordan, but he is and isn't.
He's not really a convincing military man but is a good generic Hanna Barbera hero.
He's not even a convincing Ryan Reynolds. I don't know if he was miscast, but he didn't play a role he's well known for.
Why does Sinestro become Yellow Lantern in the end?
The visual effects. The shadowing and heads don't fit too well.
It's better than Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer plot wise.
It doesn't seem horrible in a camp, Batman and Robin way. It just seems to have some problems in creating the Green Lantern worlds where they can reimpose.
The concept art looks phenomenal.
The voice acting is top notch.

The Walking Dead Season 7 Episode 1, "The Day Will Happen When You Won't Be"'s controversy is the whole point of the episode
So they started off this episode with this Jeffrey Dean Morgan playing someone. He wants to or be some sort of tester or something. Not sure what his whole plan is.
Not the worst thing in the world, but extremely disappointing from a story perspective.
So he kills of one of the main characters.
If you don't want to hear who it is, don't read further and watch the episode first.
He kills off Glenn.
And I have problems with this.
Glenn's been on the show for 7 seasons.
He's the Chinese American actor who's portray a non-stereotype in comparison with Nickelodeon's superhero family suburban show, the Thundermans.
There's been a lot media regarding how he was a Chinese American who was on a big TV show but can't find a lot of work.
Now, he'll have to try and find a lot of work.
If you've never watched the Walking Dead before, would you care that he got killed off? Aren't you going to be annoyed about these fans saying all these things about Glenn?
Sure, he gets a flashback.
But most of the characters can't even talk about him since they'll get killed if they react.
I get that the whole point is, "wow, they killed off a main character."
But even with my background in Power Rangers and soap operas, I prefer story first: why was it a good reason to kill off Glenn? Did it give closure to the character? Is there a thematic reason for his death, etc..
Not the worst thing in the world, but extremely disappointing from a story perspective.
Ultimate Spider-Man vs The Sinister Six: Spider Slayers Part 3
So the episode was about the Spider heroes infiltrating Kaine.
I understand Kaine was dangerous, but making fun of him, while saying at the same time that he was a victim of Doc Ock's experiments, sorta makes you idiotic, illogical, undisciplined and unsympathetic. Too much humor when its to the point.
Now keep in mind that I don't really watch the show.
Venom Spider-Man is dumb, and he's rewarded as a superhero. Kaine is dumb and isn't.
Kaine drains. A really dumb Venom.
Venom shoots.
Venom gets too close. Spider-Man and his cheetoh obsession somehow notices this.
The other Spider Slayers or in other universes Symbiotes/Clones listen to Kaine and Ben.
Scarlet Spider
MJ Spider
Squirrel Girl are the rest of the team.
Yes, Squirrel Girl is in a show about the Clone Wars and dark moments of Kaine. Good job.
This show does sell toys quite well.
Symbiote clones.
There's a ghost Spider-Man for whatever reason doesn't just rip people's hearts out.
The heroes win because of better matchups in the end.
Kaine is enjoyable. The good guys taunt him. He's just sorta does what he wants, without knowing the purpose.
So again, horrible villain made by Disney XD.
