TV Review: Constantine (1×08) – “The Saint of Last Resorts – Part 1”

*Two small spoilers and one bigger spoiler _______ = Spoiler I would like to apologize (1) for the extremely late nature of this recap, and (2) for the lie I told in the last one. I was under the impression that…

TV Review: Constantine 1 x 7: “Blessed Are The Damned”

If I were Christopher Nolan, I would say something like, “I am going into that gentle goodnight.” But unlike post-Inception Christopher Nolan, I know how to make sense and not say things that will annoy my audience. Bottom-line: I am…

  The dawn of the televised comic book/graphic novel adaption is upon us. As of last year, Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Arrow were the only heroes to grace the screen. Not only do we have shows like Marvel’s Agent Carter, Marvel’s…
