Boars, Gore, and Swords

Long Long Time. This is a video game adaptation, and things are just starting to really get rolling, which means it’s time for a side quest. Sure Joel and Ellie are cool, but have you ever had Frank & Bill??? Ivan & Red follow HBO Max’s The Last of Us for at least one more episode.

Infection. Despite the party decreasing by one, and the always present terror of hoping a video adaptation holds up, Bella Ramsey’s performance convinced Ivan & Red to follow HBO Max’s The Last of Us for at least one more episode. Hopefully by episode 3 they’ll have escaped the hellscape that is Boston, Maine.

Comic & Writer Alexandria Love is back to escort Ellie from the PS3 to HBO. She’s joined Ivan & Red in the flatbed truck and they’re off to Boston with no food and a wrench that somehow falls apart after a few uses.

Rix Road. Cassian returns home to discover nothing is as he left it. Maarva makes one last appearance, and B2EMO yanks viciously at the heart strings. Ivan & Red hate nepotism, but when Nightcrawler scribe Dan Gilroy is brought in by his brother Tony, exceptions will be made. Star Wars is good again?

Daughter of Ferrix. A master class on consoling sentient? droids deep in grief. Cassian gets the help of some local fishermen to get off planet and Forrest Whitaker completes his contractual 90 minutes on set. Ivan & Red hate nepotism, but when Nightcrawler scribe Dan Gilroy is brought in by his brother Tony, exceptions will be made. Star Wars is good again?
