So the Wife and I finally reached the last two episodes of Buffy, hopefully we'll get a chance to wrap them up by the time the weekend gets here. Anime-wise, I'm also looking to wrap up Chainsaw Man as well.

Hmm...never read the original.  Does it really warrant that many parts, lol?  I mean I heard that the CWverse tried to do it and botched it all up, so I was hoping to see a better version of that.  Also is Crises on Two Earths (the film that came out in 2010) a different story?

Does seem a little self indulgent. Long Halloween was just as long of a read and it only did 2 parts. Since this is supposed to be the climax of the current universe of movies they must be going all out with cameos. I only know it's 3 because of wiki, never would've assumed that.

So apparently 'House of the Dragon' star Milly Alcock, has been cast as Kara Zor-El, for the upcoming Supergirl movie.

Thanks for starting this thread Lony

I watched Echo episode 2. Still not into is as much as I had hoped. My favourite parts have been the Indigenous flashbacks.

Read a couple of issues of the new Batman and Robin series and I'm just not sold. Damien stories bore me. I gave it three issues, and have tapped out. Saw a recent thread on Reddit comicbooks about how long do you give a series before you cut ties. My commitment when I buy them is for sure the first arc. Downloading with no monetary investment, I'm quicker to cut ties. However its been a long time since I disliked a series so much so quickly like this.

Caught up with Transformers and Duke 1. Despite being GiJoe, I dug it. Enough to ask for Cobra Commander #1. Thundercats coming out next month and then the TMNT reboot oh baby my 80s child inner self is thrilled!!

Foos be buying:

DUKE #2
WORLDTREE #7

Foos be reading:

AVENGERS INC #5
AVENGERS TWILIGHT #2
DEAD X-MEN #1
DEADLY HANDS OF KUNG FU GANG WAR #2
INCREDIBLE HULK #8
SECRET WARS BATTLEWORLD #3
WOLVERINE #42

Yep, giving a comic book series, the first story arc treatment, is more than fair, before deciding if you want to drop it or not.

Similar to the three episode rule with any anime series.

I go in checkpoints. First see if we finish issue 1, then see the arc to its completion. Sometimes I still "get" but just look at the art (Harley haven't cared for I'm a bit). Even when I paid I dismissed them easily, not paying means ugly art better be GOOD.

That said I've been enjoying B&R. Speaking of, has Red Robin basically been on the shelf? Feels like Drake only pops up if they need the full Bat family splash page.

I finished watching Echo. I liked it. I love the character. Easy watch and maybe not super adventurous at times, but definitely set up some interesting things and we got the back story out of the way for her to show up in Daredevil, etc. I highly enjoyed the exploration into her Indigenous background and seeing Tantoo Cardinal and Graham Greene on the screen. I really enjoyed the ASL part too.

Have you watched Reservation Dogs yet iron maiden ? Only reason I ask is that a number of actors/actresses in Echo are in Reservation Dogs as well, including Graham Greene.

Currently watching episode 3 of Echo.

Yes, we have. And highly enjoyed it.
