Stewart here, and be ready for spoilers on the horizon…
The fall season of TV starts once again, and Monday and Tuesday brought several nerd-related shows back on the air, along with a possible new addition to the ranks. Well, if to start easing myself into another season of minicaps for Arrow (and that’s still two weeks away), let’s talk about these NerdLush favorites, starting with the new kid in town.

The Smallville season 9 minicaps plays chess, not checkers.

Last we left everyone, we had a few surprises. One was Chloe and Oliver becoming way more than just friends, if you know what I mean. Another comes when Clark saved Zod from dying with some of his super blood. I’m sure Zod feels grateful for that, except now he’s using the Blur’s secret identity to get Lois to unwillingly spy on everyone. Oh, and he can fly. Barely a few hours with powers, and he can fly. That happened. So let’s see how that and that mysterious group Checkmate fit into things in this installment… Continue reading
I started a training this week for the job I am doing for the next year. One of the topics related to proper dress attire- should be common sense stuff,right? Especially since I am working at a prison. But apparently my institution is fairly lax and there are a lot of questionable things that have been worn inside…
The basic thing is don’t wear the same color as the inmates. And, ladies, remember that men are looking at you as though you are a piece of meat. And they are starving.
Pretty simple, right?
But it got me thinking about cosplay again- something that’s been happening a lot since I started this site. Continue reading
The Smallville season 9 minicaps has been brought to you by the color black.

Last season, the whole Davis Bloome/Doomsday storyline ended with both man and monster separated, and yet, both of them meeting quick demises. But Clark and company still faced a lot of grief over what happened, like Jimmy’s death, Clark and Oliver turning against each other in deciding Davis’s fate, and Clark deciding to ditch being Clark Kent to be a full-time superhero. On the other end, Lois vanished into what we assume is the future, and Tess has heralded the arrival of Zod to Earth. So where do we start up this season? Continue reading
The Smallville season 8 minicaps would like to apologize for what happens in this installment. It’s not excusable.
Stewart here…
The whole Davis Bloome/Doomsday thing is starting to swing out of control, now that all our heroes (and villains) are aware what kind of threat he is. Not that Davis tries to take himself out of the equation, but that attempt just doesn’t work. Now Chloe is sheltering Davis in a crazy attempt to save both Davis and Clark from destroying one another. And meanwhile, Oliver is helping out Jimmy with a stable job besides pill-popping maniac, while dealing with his own guilt over killing Lex. Plus, Tess has some other odd kryptonian orb that I’m sure won’t be another world-ending calamity in the making. OK, who are we kidding? It pretty much will be. So, let’s jump in…
Robert Kirkman – Writer, Letterer
Cory Walker – Penciler, Inker
Ryan Ottley – Penciler, Inker
Bill Crabtree – Colourist

The Smallville season 8 minicaps is now 100% Lana free. It took us a while, but we finally got around to it. Thank you for your patience.
Stewart here…
We had some brief returns of some long-time players in Smallville that have been absent this season. One was Lana, who underwent a procedure to become superpowerful, only to get her and Clark’s new perfect relationship sunk when she gets irradiated with kryptonite. And that happens thanks to the other returning player, Lex Luthor, who is physically destroyed from that experience at the Arctic, and who ends up dead thanks to an explosion caused by Oliver Queen. Meanwhile, Tess seems to be aware of Clark’s secret, and lets him know as much despite his denials. Our other villain this season, Davis Bloome, is now murdering criminals and keeping people off his scent through some pretty extreme measures, like Jimmy, who thinks Davis is the killer, and gets drugged up bad for it. That drugging up doesn’t help Jimmy convince Chloe of what’s going on, and either due to the pills he’s starting to pop more than regularly or his own insecurities, wants to not be married to Chloe anymore. Sniff.
Oh, Chloe, can you make things worse somehow? Not to spoil what’s coming up here in this round of minicaps, but the short answer is “yes”… Continue reading
At the end of season 1 of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Char and I were working on a post about why we loved Agent Ward. Even though he was with Hydra and evil. Life happened, the finale aired, and we never finished it.
But it has lingered in the back of my mind ever since.
Ward is evil. He is Hydra. But we still love him. Below is an excerpt from the discussion we had regarding Agent Ward. Continue reading
