Star Trek: #1 The Wormhole Connection (1984)
DC’s take on Star Trek hit comic racks with its ‘1st star-spanning collector’s issue!’ in time for February of 1984. Set after the events of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, I know we’ll get a few issues before Star Trek III comes along. The first issue, The Wormhole Connection, was written by Mike…
Storm of the Century (1999) – Part 1
While not necessarily a movie, which is what I usually cover on Fridays, I thought it would be cool to revisit Storm of the Century, something I had not watched since it first aired. Written for the television screen by Stephen King, the miniseries aired over three nights, with the premiere on 14 February, 1999….
Stargate: Universe (2010) – Intervention, and Aftermath
The second, and final, season of Stargate Universe got underway on 28 September, 2010 with Intervention. Written by series creators Joseph Mallozzi and Paul Mullie, the episode picks up where the first one ended, with the Lucian Alliance still holding hostages aboard the Destiny, including Colonel Young (Louis Ferreira). It may be up to Eli…
War Machine (2026) – Patrick Hughes
Alan Ritchson leads a group of fellow soldiers, all determined to be Rangers, in a fierce battle with an otherworldly presence. Ritchson has proven himself to be an enjoyable performer, and is working at refining his acting skills (and they are improving), and Hughes who not only directed the film but had a hand in…
Exit Strategy (2018) – Martha Wells
I love the Murderbot Diaries, I find them entertaining, fun, and funny as hell. Martha Wells has created a character and universe that I love revisiting. And with the size of the diary entries, none of the books so far have been much longer than a novella. This story circles back to check in on…
Stargate: Universe (2009) – Air: Part 3, and Darkness
Creators and showrunners Brad Wright and Robert C. Cooper delivered Air: Part 3 to viewers on 9 October, 2009. With only a twelve hour window before Destiny jumps back to FTL, Rush (Robert Carlyle), Eli (David Blue), Scott (Brian J. Smith), Greer (Jamil Walker Smith) and others pass through the gate and find themselves on…
KPop Demon Hunters (2025) – Chris Appelhans, and Maggie Kang
Okay, I’ll openly admit that it took me a while to get to this one. Sometimes you just have to be in the right mood for something, and this one’s time had finally come. Sony, when it wants to, can deliver really solid animated films, I’m looking at you Spidey, and now, the KPop Demon…
The God of the Woods (2024) – Liz Moore
Damn this book is good. It had popped up into my feed as a recommendation, and after reading the blurb I was in. I’m not going to say much storywise beyond the blurb because it’s wonderful to see how the narrative plays out. I am going to say, I loved the way Moore crafted her…
The Road to the Dark Tower: Exploring Stephen King’s Magnum Opus (2004) – Bev Vincent
I was itching to explore the Dark Tower series again, and while I was listening to the KingCast, a fantastic podcast about Stephen King and films, and their guest was Bev Vincent, and they talked about his book, The Road to the Dark Tower. I hunted it down with a vengeance, and was delighted to…
