info_outlineThe Fellowship is pleased to present the fifth and final week of our Carpenter Month, with Ghosts of Mars (2001). We colonize Mars, and Mars isn't all that thrilled about it. This is the film that made him retire from directing. And as always, our picks of the week.
What we're up to this week:
The Tick (Amazon Prime series) - definite thumbs up, not exactly what we're used to in a Tick series but in a totally good way
Les' Trade Pile - Superman's Reign vol 2; good stuff, with some dimensional crossover going on
Thomas' Trade Pile - Tales of the Batman (Len Wein collection), specifically Untold Legends of Batman; good read with some nostalgia mixed in

[Note: I find it interesting how when we get hold of a bad movie, we start bringing up other, better movies. It's as if we're desperate to find something better to talk about. This note is apropos of nothing, of course; I just think it's funny in its own way. -m]

Batman White Knight #2 (DC)
Power Pack #63 (Marvel)
Atomic Robo and the Spectre of Tomorrow #1 (IDW)
The Jetsons #1 (DC)
