It's Thursday, I'm tired, let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!
Back in a Flash
The last ever series of The Flash started airing in the UK on Tuesday night.
And honestly, given that it was a time-loop episode and they can be a bit meh sometimes, I was expecting it to be a lot worse than it was.
I do get 'last day of school' kind of vibes, though - everyone's enjoying themselves, which is nice, but also no-one's taking things that seriously. Which might be OK, but we'll have to see.
Of all the CW shows, The Flash is my least-fave - I still love it! It's just that if I could have one more series of any of the superhero shows they've taken the axe to (which is pretty much all of them,) it wouldn't've been this one.
- It would've been Legends of Tomorrow, because we ended last series on a goddamn cliffhanger which now won't be resolved. *sighs*
Still - I plan on enjoying this last, shortened, series of The Flash. 😊
Marvel-ous Comic Book History
I love this video from YouTuber Comic Drake explaining the history of the title 'Ms Marvel' and every superhero who's used it.
Ms Marvel's history is more complex - and, in places, problematic (WTAF Avengers 200?!) - than I'd realised.
Also, I love how many times he just gives up and says 'because comics.' Because comics.
Warning: brief flashing images at start, Spider-Man related spider-bite footage at start, discussions of sexual assault (warning before section in video,) vague violence
run-time: 17.18
Shameless Self-Promo Time!
Last week's Friday Fics Fix featured a fic which picks up where The Umbrella Academy, series 3, leaves off - check it out here.
Will you be watching The Flash?
Avengers 200 - WTAF were they thinking?!
Talk to me! 😅💬

I didn't know Ms. Marvel had such a long history! Kamala Khan is certainly my favourite to use the title.
ReplyDeleteYes! I do love Carol too, obv. - but she gets to be Captain Marvel now :)
