I can't tell you how long this one has sat in my Netflix DVD queue. Okay, I can say it probably has been a decade, because the film came out in 2009 and I probably put it on the list when it hit DVD in 2010. Not only that, I've had the DVD in my …

The 4400, Season 2
The second season of The 4400 was the first full season for the show, which was 13 episodes instead five, a number of episodes that is still about half of what you'd expect from a network television show these days. But being that it aired on cable, USA didn't feel the need to go for a full …
Quantum of Solace
While I have been a fan of James Bond since I was ten years old, I have to admit that there are a number of films I haven't seen (a number of them starring Roger Moore) and the last one I saw in a theater was Tomorrow Never Dies. A lot of that has to do …
Suicide Squad #59-65
With a slight pivot in direction having taken place and a five-part bannered storyline to kick things off, the creative team of the Suicide Squad seemed to be committed to keeping the book humming along even if, as I mentioned in my previous review, I didn't think it totally worked. But that's not without trying …
Suicide Squad #53-58
With the Squad officially not part of the government anymore (therefore relinquishing the "Task Force X" moniker), they've essentially gone full A-Team, taking assignments when they can. And while most of the characters that we have seen throughout the title are still hanging around, this kind of feels like we're heading into the final season …
Team America #1
Man, you will pick up some random stuff when it's the end of your time at a comics show and you're elbow deep in a fifty cent bin. I mean, that has to be the only reason I own this particular book, because I can't imagine why I would have picked it up. It came …
Suicide Squad #51, 52
After the big "family reunion" of the previous issue and before what will be a multi-part storyline beginning in issue #53, the Suicide Squad takes a couple of issues for some individual character development and focus, starting with Deadshot and continuing with Dr. Light. In the former story, someone has Deadshot's suit and is using …
Badger #43, 44, 45
A few reviews ago, I was seriously considering ditching the rest of my Badger run for the sake of my own sanity, especially since I haven't been as satisfied with this title as I thought I was going to be when I fished it out of a quarter bin last year. Two of these three …
