It starts November 20th, and Jessica Jones on Netflix may be the most extreme Marvel program yet. That makes sense, considering it is limited to a single non-broadcast platform for their first run, allowing them to get as edgy as they want. And when you look at their Comic Book Source Material you begin to realize just how strange and twisted they might end up by the end of the first season. Also worth checking out are the series of IGN interviews that begin to bring the rest of the cast into focus. We only have about another week and a half, I can’t wait to see for myself how they unfold this story.

In Movies, Terminator Genisys brings Arnie back to the franchise as both his young and old self. I missed this one in the theater, so I am going to try to check it out this time around. Self/Less looks like quite an interesting story of attempted immortality, and the law of unintended consequences. Finally Mr. Holmes is a story about Sherlock in his later days taking on one last case.

While not quite genre, TV brings WKRP in Cincinnati: The Complete Final Season. As a person who worked on FM Rock Radio in those days, this show was the closest thing I have ever seen to the way it really was.

In Anime Danganronpa: Complete Series is a high school where the best are out to kill each other off in their attempt to escape getting slaughtered themselves. It has quite an interesting animation style, and is based on a game franchise of the same name. There are also two new entries from long running favorites, Naruto: Shippuden, Box Set 24 with episodes 297 through 309, and One Piece: Collection 14 with episodes 325 through 348.

Today is the day Wasteland, the new Abney Park album, is being released, so I thought it was appropriate to share a few of their songs here for those that may not have heard them. The first track is their rendition of Minnie The Moocher from the new album, with Captain Robert doing an amazing job of channeling Cab Calloway. The next song is Wasteland Warrior, also from the new album. We follow that with a few old favorites, Two Elixirs from the album Nomad, and the extended version of Steampunk Revolution from Ancient World. You can use the link to their home page to hear a lot more, and pick up any of the music you find interesting.
