This Harley Quinn Trailer Has a Lot of Cussing
Another week, another new trailer for the Harley Quinn cartoon and it’s upcoming season 3! I love this show and it’s a lazy Tuesday, so why not just share another one of these trailers? I can’t wait for this season!
But since this red band trailer is full of cussing, I can’t link it directly from YouTube. So how about the Twitter version?
Looks great! I can’t wait for all the humor, the character growth and the cussing. You can still watch the trailer on YouTube if you’d like. It’s much simpler, but has all sorts of rules.
Anyway, Harley Quinn season 3 comes to HBO Max on July 28! So a week and two days away!

There’s Gonna Be More Beavis and Butt-Head
We knew this was coming, and now we’ve got a trailer! The new movie, Beavis and Butt-Head Do the Universe, came out a couple of weeks ago and it was a hoot! Maybe not as good as the good old days, but nonetheless quite a funny and enjoyable film. And that’s going to lead into a whole new revival series this fall.
Bring it on! We have a million things to watch these days, so why not more Beavis and Butt-Head straight from Mike Judge? Close Enough just got cancelled. And the new season of Tuca & Bertie arrived with so little fanfare that I might forget to watch it. There’s so much stuff! So I’ll gladly take more Beavis and Butt-Head!
The new show starts on Aug. 4 on Paramount+.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 7/16/22
After last week’s massive pile of comics, I felt pretty lazy this week. We’ve only got a couple, like Immortal X-Men and Power Rangers. But that’s good enough, right?
Comic Book of the Week goes to X-Men: Hellfire Gala #1 for another excellent Hellfire Gala. I really love this as an annual event, even if it throws the normal comic book passage of time right out the window.
Meanwhile, I loved the finale to Ms. Marvel! That show lived up to all my hopes, hypes and expectations. Truly wonderful! Beyond that, I’ve moved onto For All Mankind on AppleTV+ and am hoping for the best. And my trip through Mass Effect: Legendary Edition has reached Mass Effect 2 — which is a huge improvement over the first game! Loving this adventure.
Comic Reviews: Immortal X-Men #4, Power Rangers #21 and X-Men: Hellfire Gala #1.
Read the rest of this entryThe Rings of Power Hasn’t Hooked Me Yet
There’s going to be a big, expensive Lord of the Rings TV show. It’s going to be set millennia before the movies, focusing on some supplemental material from J.R.R. Tolkien. It’s going to be called The Rings of Power on Amazon Prime, and it’s going to look like this.
And I don’t think it looks like anything. This trailer looks gorgeous. Clearly the money was spent on big CGI landscapes. Because all the character scenes look far less expensive. And none of them are talking about anything interesting. It all looks really cool. But this trailer doesn’t reveal anything about plot or story or characters that gets me excited.
It looks like Amazon put all of their money into making this big show, but have probably failed to come up with any sort of story worth telling.
I hope I’m wrong, obviously. I’m going to watch this show. There’s no reason the showrunners and writers can’t have come up with something really great, that just so happens to have billion-dollar CGI landscapes.
So I’m going to keep my hopes up for when The Rings of Power premieres on Sept. 2!

Avalanche Didn’t Make the X-Men
The new X-Men roster was unveiled in the new Hellfire Gala event comic yesterday. I really enjoyed the issue, and I super enjoy the whole Hellfire Gala concept. It’s a really fun yearly event. And I still love the idea of voting for the X-Men roster. This is who they picked:
I like the team. Solid core with Cyclops, Jean and Synch, and the other choices are cool. I’m sure wirter Gerry Duggan has plenty of good plans for them. Iceman is one of my favorite X-Men, so I’m glad he’s on the team. And Firestar is an inspired choice. But no sign of Mimic, Multiple Man, Blob, Toad or even Abyss. Maybe someday.
(Still no signs of Mimic at all on Krakoa…)
Anyway, I voted for Avalanche to join, but he didn’t make the cut.
Oh well. There’s always next year! I should do a List of Six on which mutants I want voted onto the core X-Men team. Should be a good year of X-Men comics!
