REVIEW: Secret Invasion – Season 1, Episode 2, “Promises”
With its second episode, “Promises,” Secret Invasion gets even more intriguing, wrapping itself comfortably in the espionage tropes it introduced last week and introducing shades of gray for all the main characters. There’s a subtlety to this show that other Marvel productions don’t have, es...

I saw the title “Injustice” a couple of months back on IMDb and wondered if Superman & Lois’ third season was going to get much, much bigger by the end. It hasn’t, at least not in the way that title would imply. But “Injustice” does feel like it’s upped the ante for the show, as &h...
