Secret Six #1

/ / Comics

The first issue to kick off a new volume of Secret Six doesn’t feel much like a Secret Six comic with the focus primarily being characters not used in any previous series. Set in the aftermath of Absolute Power, the first issue really focuses on, in descending levels of importance, Jon Kent, his boyfriend Gossamer, and Dreamer who arrives to inform the pair Amanda Waller has disappeared. Looking in to where Waller should be, things get Secret Six adjacent with the trio breaking Black Alice out of prison. It’s not until the final panel, however, where the count adds up to six with the cameo appearances of Catman and Deadshot.

Running Point – Pilot

  • Title: Running Point – Pilot
  • IMDb: link

In what feels like Netflix’s version of a sitcom (with broad comedy and a concerted effort to seem edgy by shoehorning in as much swearing as possible), the “Pilot” episode of Running Point introduces us to Isla Gordon (Kate Hudson) as the least fucked up member of her family, a family that runs a professional basketball team. Thrown into the role of president after her eldest brother’s (Justin Theroux) cocaine bender becomes national news, Isla finally gets to put her basketball IQ to use much to the chagrin of her other brothers (Scott MacArthur and Drew Tarver) jealous they weren’t tapped for the position. The opening episode is mostly about introducing the characters, setting up a new path for Isla and the Waves, and also teasing one more surprise for the family which will be sprung in the season’s second episode.

Watson – Redcoat / Wait for the Punchline

  • Title: Watson – Redcoat / Wait for the Punchline
  • IMDb: link | link

The pilot episode of Watson was pretty rough. The next two in which Dr. John Watson (Morris Chestnut) helps a man believing himself to be a colonial British soldier (Damian O’Hare) after being shot in the head and a stand-up comedian who collapses from a hereditary condition, all while the minions of Moriarty (Randall Park) work through Watson’s friend to screw with the good doctor, does show some improvement. The Moriarty segments involving Shinwell Johnson (Ritchie Coster) remain incredibly awkward, and Watson’s team of doctors still hasn’t quite clicked although Ingrid (Eve Harlow) and Sasha (Inga Schlingmann) both get some nice moments over the two episodes, although I’m still not interested in any of their personal lives (I’m already tired of Watson’s as well).
