I’m sure he would have been good but I appreciate him opting out for artistic reasons if that is what happened.
Those who are interested in the show may want to consider tracking down the David Mack comic run where the character made its debut. It has great art and character-driven writing, https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/139996.Daredevil_Vol_8.
Haha! That’s great. I hadn’t seen it yet.
A bigger pull week for me— Green Arrow, Flash, Captain America, Giant Robot Hellboy, Predator vs Wolverine, and Mighty Thor
I was in the 90s and am again with the Taylor & Redondo run. I plan on picking that Dan Mora cover up. FYI if you weren’t already aware of it, !nightwing@lemmy.world.
Same! Kudos to devs and I’ll try using this as my main app for a bit and see how it goes.
Lol! "…blue Elon Musk.
Well said. It was ‘whelming’ and Thrawn just didn’t quite get the portrayal that the character deserved. I don’t fault the actor as much as the season’s plotting and writing. The character came off as a strategist, but not to the same level as a Lex Luthor of the Star Wars universe in terms of intellect and strategy. I’ll keep an open mind though and hope future storylines address some of these concerns. Andor, Rogue One and peak-level Mandalorian remain the best of Star Wars TV/movies for the last decade or so in my opinion.
Ahsoka = C+. Zahn’s novel trilogy it is not. Not even close in terms of quality or narrative. Not a single ‘wow’ or ‘woah’ moment. Some ‘that’s kinda cool’ moments. It has some good lightsaber action and Ahsoka and Baylon are cool characters but the show suffers from questionable plotting and dialogue, slow pacing, underutilization of Thrawn as an antagonist and a requirement to be familiar with Rebels to understand most of it. It would have been better as a 2–3 hour movie. At least Andor S2 is yet to come. Oh and…Zombie stormtroopers? Really?!?
As the owner of a 2002 Honda CR-V, I really want to be intrigued by this car. Since I want the next car purchase to hopefully be for a vehicle that would be kept for another long haul, I think it’s worth waiting until 2025 or 2026 to see what Honda’s own engineered EVs will look like. They will also probably have NACS as well. I’m sure the Prologue will get a lot of buyers though as they enter the EV space.
I thought it was an ok episode. Much like I think the show has been ok. The finale will certainly influence my final impression. I have a feeling that I will see the show similarly to how I saw Kenobi, which was a mixed bag of highs and lows that would have been better served by being a focused 2–3 hour film instead of a several hour season. Andor and peak Mandalorian this show is not.
Immortal Thor and the new Cap run are solid options for series that just started. Predator/Wolverine just started as well and may interest you. Batman: Gargoyle of Gotham just started and should be four issues. Transformers from Skybound, Justice League vs Godzilla vs Kong, and Giant Robot Hellboy also come out next month.
Agreed! He has become the most interesting character in the show for me, even during Thrawn’s debut episode.
I am also enjoying Superman Lost. Did anyone else pick up Batman: Gargoyle of Gotham?
I started collecting comics from the spin rack at the grocery store in the 90s. I was mostly reading Spider-Man and X-Men. I got back into comics in college since I lived close to a comic store. The Bendis/Maleev Daredevil run and the Loeb/Lee Hish run got me back into comics for a few years. I got back into comics years later with Saga and I am still collecting.
Hellboy is great! One of the peaks of the medium.
Thanks for sharing that! And a private Piped video at that. You get a 🫡 .
I understand your comment but it is just a hypothetical question sans need. :)
There are reputable studies out there that can answer your question.
Try it now. It should work.
