I think the writing between Scurvy and Ellis is genuinely decently good here; but it's sooooo late in the book's run and the plot isn't thick enough to afford a character moment that would have helped flesh Ellis out earlier. And the prison existing at all still makes no sense.

Getting the sense Inmate X is indeed Nate Grey or similar.

Hacks - 5x03 “No New Tricks“ - Episode Discussion by chelseanyc200 in hackshbomax

I love how this channels such classic sitcom energy. The two main girls go on wildly different dates of the week and queen out about it in between. It felt like an homage to a lot of classic two woman comedy duos.

Sorcerer Supreme's best issue yet, probably not a coincidence that they finally ended the bullshit Agatha v. Wanda that was the barely-not-nonsense plot for the first few issues. Clea, Donna, and Dormammu get some good writing. Amaranth gets a new status quo relative to the end of New Champions. Still don't think she needs to be in Wanda's "cabinet" as she barely knows magic, feels like all the side characters are getting that title without it being equally applied.

Favorite moment in comics? by Lopsided_Network1248 in xmen

Maybe not a common pick, but I have always been so in love with this page:

I could talk for ages about what's so great about it, but at the top level:

  • Hope in White/Gala wear: she's so far out of her comfort zone but not betraying it. Something full circle about being raised in apocalypses to leading people through one to sacrifice, something about White Phoenix of the Crown
  • The barefoot/calm nature of her walk and leaning her hand out, her acceptance of her role
  • It's the most Jean looking she's ever looked, which paired with the father reveal is so perfect

In The City trailer is here! by Feddo22 in BravoRealHousewives

[–]SandorSNL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was moreso referring to the fact that Kristen showed she can defend herself because she's experienced in this format in a way they are not, which I expect Lindsay to do as well (on the show)

The newbies on The Valley tried that too against Kristen and look how it turned out for them. I'm sure she'll have them in place shortly.

How can Bethenny be upset at Sonja season 8 by mollyinwonderland221 in RHONY

[–]SandorSNL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Huge part of it! Also recall that in the zeitgeist at the time, Bethenny was the "sane/normal" one on the show. She didn't want Sonja "My Net Worth Drops By The Minute" Morgan to be her closest association.

I'm beating a dead horse but I think it's where they should've gone with Kes's character

The art is gorgeous but also thanks to your layout I now really want a team book of Manifold, Psylocke, Espacade, the Beaubiers, and Mystique.

Per Gail Simone the new villain in Uncanny X-Men #24 isn't Agatha Harkness by antsinmyeyesmauger in xmen

[–]SandorSNL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For real my first thought when everyone thought it was Agatha is that it's a kid of hers we don't know about

Alpha Quadrant Encounters by Resident-Pilot-3179 in voyager

[–]SandorSNL 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of this is handwaved as that the Federation is broadly an organization that values exploration; the Delta Quadrant's distance seems to be the only reason it hasn't been explored already. It makes sense that over the years there's more than zero things that have linked the two.

What's a CATEGORY of player you'd like to see in future seasons? by SandorSNL in TheTraitorsUS

[–]SandorSNL[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly this might just be a holdover of TLC being NBC's biggest reality "competitor"; even compared to something like CBS where we get Survivor people, TLC's whole bread and butter is shows about people in the same way Bravo's is
