Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Captain Comics's discussion Who knows something about smart TVs?"That's right, Cap. They can play videos from a flash drive or external drive, too, but you would probably need to download them on a computer. I say "probably" because my TV does have a web browser built in, but I haven't done…"

My Heroes Have Always Been JunkiesEd Brubaker & Sean PhillipsImage Comics, 2018Didn't realize until I started reading this that it is subtitled "A Criminal novella." None of the recurring Criminal characters appear, but it does indeed feature lots of criminal behavior, so the connection is there. Ellie is the young woman with the hero worship of drug addicts referenced…See More
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Richard Willis's discussion Daredevil Season 3"I thought it got off to a really slow start. For awhile there I was really afraid it was going to be a nonstop pity party. But it has picked up a few episodes in."
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Captain Comics's discussion Who knows something about smart TVs?"Smart TVs have limitations, judging from our experience with our new 55" LG OLED TV. Gorgeous picture, and better sound than I've had from a TV before. But after getting it hooked up to our WiFi and connecting to the services it supports…"
Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Captain Comics's discussion 'The Walking Dead' Season 9"I agree that the show frequently drags, but I think the comics have done the same. "All Out War" basically occupied three TPB collections (although I think a bunch of those issues were originally issued biweekly). Reading it in collected…"

Mark Sullivan (Vertiginous Mod) replied to Captain Comics's discussion 'Legends of Tomorrow' Season 4"It's definitely fun. And I just love the portrayal of Constantine, so I'm really happy to have him around. Even if he does magic all the time, unlike the classic Con Job from the original Hellblazer series."
