The Mandalorian Season 3 is Definitely For Me!
After years of waiting, and multiple Star Wars shows in between, we’re finally going to get the third season of The Mandalorian. I still think it’s weird that we had some major story movement during The Book of Boba Fett, but I watched that, so I’m fully up to speed. They can make these shows how they like. I’m ready for this new season and I’m ready for this story!
Looks great! It’s a little funny that all these other Mandalorians are rainbow-colored, while he gets to stay this cool, gleaming silver dude. But if it works, it works. We’re gonna learn a lot more about the Mandalorians as a people, and that should be cool. And we’re gonna get even more about Grogu’s backstory, which we’re all dying to see!
The third season of The Mandalorian comes to Disney+ on March 1.

The Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur Cartoon is Definitely For Kids
I like cartoons. I watch a ton of cartoons. Sometimes they’re cartoons for kids, sometimes they’re cartoons for adults. But with this trailer for the upcoming Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur show, I definitely think this one is for really young kids. And that’s probably my criteria for skipping the show. It looks good, but it doesn’t look for me.
Maybe it’s for you! And that’s why I share trailers like this. Perhaps this is totally your vibe. I just like sharing that Marvel is branching out with all sorts of different ideas and shows. I wonder if Moon Boy will be used in any way…
Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur comes to Disney Channel on Feb. 10, and then to Disney+ shortly thereafter.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 1/14/23
My friends, this has been a week. I had to take my car in for some repairs and that cost me an arm and a leg. And then the repair shop messed up my automatic seat adjuster, which was already pretty fragile. So I’m not only out a lot of money this week, but now my seat is stuck in a somewhat uncomfortable way! I need to buy a new car, but in this economy? In this market? Ugh. Anyway, this is all to say I didn’t get to too many comics this week out of sheer sadness.
Comic Book of the Week goes to X-Men #18 because it was the better of the two I actually managed to read and review this week. It’s an OK story.
Meanwhile, I haven’t played with my new Playstation 5 yet, because I want to finish Pokemon Violet before moving on to a new game. So that’s just collecting dust. And I finished Wednesday, which was really good. Basically trying to find anything to lessen the pain of this past week.
Comic Reviews: Monica Rambeau: Photon #2 and X-Men #18.
Read the rest of this entryCarnival Row is Still a Thing!
Hey everybody! Did you know that Carnival Row was still a show that exists on Amazon? Because it’s second season is right around the corner! In fact, here’s a new trailer to prove it! Remember these characters? This world? I sure hope so!
I kid because I love. I really enjoyed the first season of Carnival Row when it came out way back in 2019, in the before times, in the long long ago. Cool world of downtrodden pixies and mythical humanoid creatures, with lots of interesting stories and some solid performances. But the pandemic ruins all things, and we’ve had to wait this long for season 2. I probably should have also posted a recap video of season 1 for everybody…
Carnival Row returns on Feb. 17 to Amazon Prime, and I think I read somewhere that they’re going to do two episodes a week for this second and final season.
