NEWS Krytpon gets a pilot order from SyFy http://majorspoilers.com/2016/05/10/television-krypton-pilot-gets-greenlight/ REVIEWS STEPHEN ARCHIE #8 Script: Mark Waid Art: Veronica Fish, Jack Morelli, Andre Szymanowicz Veronica’s father (and Archie’s arch-nemesis!), Hiram Lodge, is running for Mayor of Riverdale! But will he save, and even improve the town—or will he destroy it? Find out in this next installment of the hottest comic of the year! [rating:4.5/5] MATTHEW ACTIONVERSE #1 FEATURING STRAY (part 5 of 6) Writer: Sean Izaakse Artist: Sean Izaakse Cascade makes his move to power up his portal engine…which will destroy our world! Jake has teamed up with Medula. Has the entire world gone mad?? Molly, Virtue, Stray and Midnight Tiger are running out of time to save this, and every, universe! [rating: 3/5] RODRIGO This is the tale of a forgotten age before the seas were bent, when the world was flat and floated atop a sea of chaos. This is the tale of a decadent empire raised up on the bones of the fallen Golden Age, whose splendor it faintly echoed but could not match. This is a tale of primal frontiers, of the restless dead, of jeweled cities ruled openly by spirits in defiance of Heaven’s law. This is a tale of glorious heroes blessed by the gods, and of their passions and the wars they waged in the final era of legends. This is your tale. This is Exalted. What legends will they tell of your deeds? Exalted 3rd Edition depicts both a revitalized and expanded Creation, and the triumphant return of the Solar Exalted—but whether their rebirth will herald the salvation or destruction of the world, none can say. The system redesign takes the best parts of the previous editions and streamlines the mechanics for maximum playability. [rating:4.5/5] If you want to suggest a trade paperback, you need to send an email to [email protected]. That suggestion will go into the hopper and at least once a month, we’ll pick a number of suggestions for you to vote on, and at the end of the polling period, the book with the most votes will get the Major Spoilers Podcast treatment. DISCUSSION: FASTER THAN LIGHT In the very near future we discover the secret of faster-than-light travel. Suddenly the universe is wide open to us, but are we ready for it? With all the idealism of the original Star Trek and the grit and immediacy of Gravity and The Martian, the story of humanity's first thrilling and terrifying adventures to the stars takes flight!
