Tai Freligh reviews episode 8 of Heroes Reborn, ‘June 13 – Part Two’… This week’s Heroes Reborn was another very satisfying installment, bringing a lot of answers to questions raised last week, but also to some questions raised since the beginning of the season as well as some “new” old faces to the franchise.

Comic Book Review – Nailbiter #17
Zeb Larson reviews Nailbiter #17… NEW STORY ARC. A brutal new serial killer strikes!

Supergirl Season 1 Episode 1 Review – ‘Pilot’
Martin Carr reviews the first episode of Supergirl… There are those who will consider this a bad idea. Not Supergirl. That remains a good idea poorly executed.
