The Librarians Season 2 Overview

Well, that’s it for Season 2 of The Librarians. The structure was a bit different from the first season, with Prospero turning out to be more of a motivator than a recurring villain. The team was forced to search for artifacts and shut down possible sources of power, but only really confronted Prospero at the beginning and end of the season.

Conan Reviews: Conan the Barbarian 187, Conan the Barbarian 188

Conan 187 coverConan the Barbarian #187 – “Resurrection” – James Owsley/John Buscema/Ernie Chan

This one starts with a messenger delivering a package to an eerie castle in the middle of nowhere. He’s quite nervous and with good reason, as his delivery is to a group of wizards called the Council of Seven. The package turns out to be an ornate sword, which the Council tells the messenger to raise to the sky. A lightning bolt strikes, killing the messenger and making the Council quite happy. But they’re not quite satisfied …they want Jahli, the boy-king of El Shah Maddoc, dead, along with his protector, Conan.

Spider-Man Reviews Intro

Last week I said I’d be revealing my next review subject today and here it is. As you can tell from the image, I’ve decided to go with Spider-Man as my next subject. I have read pretty much all the Spider-Man comics at least up Amazing Fantasy 15 coveruntil a few years ago, so they won’t be new to me (especially the older, classic issues), but it’s been a long time since I read some of them so I’m looking forward to re-reading them and bringing back some great memories. I’ll start with Amazing Spider-Man #1 and go from there, since I think everyone is probably familiar with the origin story by now. I won’t get too deep into analysis or too in-depth with the plot descriptions, since there are so many websites devoted to Spider-Man lore already. I’ll just be re-reading these and commenting on whatever strikes my fancy: the art, the characters, the plotlines, whatever. I think it’ll be fun to read these after so many years, so I hope you’ll join me starting next week when I take a look at the first couple of issues of Amazing Spider-Man.

Librarians Reviews: Season 2, Episode 10

Librarians opening title 2-10The Librarians and the Final Curtain – Director: Marc Roskin/Writers: John Rogers, Paul Guyot

This one continues directly from last episode, with supercharged ley lines in the sky disrupting the internet and the world’s power supplies. Flynn likens it to the Carrington Event of 1859, when solar flares disrupted telegraphy all over the world … except this is a magical Carrington Event, so it will wipe out all technology.
