Hello. I’m Republibot 3.0. I’m pinch hitting for R2, since he was off watching some crazy movie with space ships and monsters and stuff like that there, and couldn’t make his normal beat.
As we know, origin stories always suck, and last week wasn’t really any exception. In fact, not only were they saddled with an origin story for Iron Man, they were also saddled with having to retcon/reboot war profiteer/womanizer/drunken Tony Stark in to a Peter Parker-esque teen with a heart of gold. To be honest, they didn’t fail nearly as bad as I’d anticipated, even if the whole plot felt artificial and silly.
This week was much better, shorter on the action, longer on the character-based story. Still not great by a long shot, but not terrible, and better than last week.
I recently expressed that “GI Joe: Resolute” was the absolute best kind of wish fulfillment, since it more-or-less simultaneously informs you of a deep-seated desire you didn’t know you had, and satiates it. (
