Anghus Houvouras reviews Earth 2: World’s End #1…. I’m an alternate universe junkie. It’s probably why I’m such a fan of Grant Morrison’s Multiversity project.

Anghus Houvouras reviews episode 3 of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 2… Early into its second season, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. feels like a show with a purpose. The pace is frenetic.

Anghus Houvouras reviews the first episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 2… If Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. perfected one thing during its first season, it was dropping Easter eggs.
