Watching “To Kill a Mockingbird” in 2025
This is not a review. I’ve just been to see the UK touring production of Aaron Sorkin’s adaptation of Harper Lee’s “To Kill a Mockingbird”. If you have never read the book, seen the 1962 film, or been lucky enough to catch the current tour, please do one of those before you read my paltry words.

The X-Men Go to Hell
X-Men in Black and White Reading black-and-white reprints of classic Chris Claremont era X-Men while sitting on the john at three a.m. is just what fat, near-sighted comic book geeks do. It comes with the territory—like morning constipation, black coffee, and rolling up random encounters while everyone else in the building is safely asleep, having dreams they don’t get to control.

Pits, People and Players
You won’t find plush velvet seats here. Nor the genteel hum of the crush bar before curtain up. In Horden, a raw former mining town scoured by the North Sea wind, theatre exists on its own terms.

Gender-Flipped Villain Pitch: Dr. Zin (Jonny Quest)
It's been a minute since I last wrote a gender-flipped villain pitch, and while I have been focused on Beyond the Gates, the road to the 2025 Stanley Cup, the upcoming NFL season, and a few Villainess Reviews, my wheels have still been turning when it comes to gender-flipping villains. I've written three pitches, but I still have so many ideas. It was a matter of which one to write next, and making sure I had the best actresses in mind.

Rocket from the Tomb

DC Secret Origins gives us the origin of The Spectre, a minor player in the DC Universe who demonstrates the oft-recurring trope of a hero being born—or rather reborn—from his own death. Apparently, crossing the Veil and coming back can so significantly alter an individual, particularly a common man (even though a “hardboiled private dick”), that he (alternately “she,” no chauvinists we) will don a costume and begin to fight jewel thieves and other crook-noses on behalf of Universal Consciousness.

Rachel Reviews: Small Things Like These (dir. Tim Mielants)

A sinus head. A rest on the sofa. Not bad enough a head to warrant going to bed but painful enough to make me want to stay very still. And so, it was movie time again. I was in the mood for a quiet story and it seemed like Small Things Like These had good reviews so I thought I would give it a go.
