Marvel’s Spider-Man Is Such A Big Nerd Crossover Considering how often we review Marvel movies/shows and new Magic: The Gathering sets here at Sci-Fi Bloggers, it feels extremely fitting to go over the upcoming (like, coming out this month) Marvel’s Spider-Man cards. They are even—somehow—Standard legal, so anyone playing that format on Arena is going… Read More »
Wolf King is the worst show I’ve seen in a long time. It clearly wants to be like Avatar: The Last Airbender, but it starts off terrible, predictable, and shoddy, and doesn’t rise all that far from that. Like even on a premise level, the show racks up issues. It’s an alternative world where some… Read More »

“The Past Is The Past” Subverts Superhero Stories “The Past is The Past” is both an ending I’d want from a show, and way off from what I expected for this show specifically. Or any Marvel show, really. My general impression of the “origin series,” as I think of them, is to take a character… Read More »

Somehow, a submarine going through the ocean managed to combine so many different… Read More »

“Karma’s a Glitch” Might Be The Second-Best Part “Karma’s a Glitch” has the pacing and progression of a movie, and I loved that about it. The series has been building up for so long that just having a bunch of classic superhero moments chained together was deeply satisfying. Like, yes, the series does have to… Read More »
“Pipelines” Somehow Isn’t A Bad Magnus Episode Let me be clear. I hated three big things about “Pipelines.” I hated the re: being repeated so many times in a row. Some of the emails are so short that it’s actually ridiculous to include those—damn any verisimilitude. Secondly, I hate that the actual horror moment, the… Read More »

“Temporary Positions” Is Great For Mystery Lovers Maybe this is just because I’ve listened to a lot of Magnus, and am going off patterns, but the series does have a habit of outright stating something after it was possible to mostly have figured it out. And that’s what “Temporary Positions” feels like. It’s a clarifying… Read More »
