"In Essentials, mathematician Harris Pax predicted the end of the world, but failed to prevent it. Now he’s living alone in a bunker and his niece’s favorite toys are starting to talk to him. The good news? He’s not the world’s sole survivor. The bad news? The other survivors are trapped in alternate realities — trapped in imagined worlds full of zombies, pterodactyls, and chaos. And now Harris Pax and an unlikely ally must travel the country on a quest to restore reality, save humanity, and defeat his new interdimensional nemesis: Snuggles."
Essentials is the graphic novel debut of Luke Arnold and the first-ever release from The Lab Press. Having just launched its Kickstarter campaign, it's an incredibly ambitious project featuring "a stunning array of all-star comic artists," including: DaNi (Sandman The Dreaming), Glenn Fabry (Preacher), Jason Howard (Transformers), Vince Locke (A History of Violence), Brendan McCarthy...

It's hard to imagine "Frasier" without the supporting cast that made it such a beloved show. That said, we don't have to imagine. The recent "Frasier" revival show, which is neither disappointing nor remarkable, has given us a glimpse of what the stellar '90s sitcom would have looked like if Kelsey Grammer's fussy psychiatrist was surrounded by less likable characters.
In the original series, Grammar was brilliant as Dr. Crane, but much of that was down to how well he played off the rest of the cast. Whether it was David Hyde Pierce's Niles, Jane Leeves' Daphne, or Peri Gilpin's Roz, each member of the cast brought something unique to the show that helped highlight various aspects of the titular doctor's flawed yet endlessly endearing personality.
On the revival, however, that same magic just isn't quite there. Still, it seems the producers weren't entirely unaware of...

In Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, directed by James Wan and written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, Jason Momoa reprises his role as Arthur Curry, diving back into the deep and turbulent waters of superhero cinema. With an ensemble cast including Amber Heard, Patrick Wilson, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Randall Park, Nicole Kidman and Temuera Morrison, the film navigates through a series of high-stakes conflicts, both personal and global. However, it’s not just the seas that are stormy; the film itself walks a messy path of narrative and visual execution.
Arthur aka Aquaman’s latest adventure kicks off with him recounting a daring hostage rescue to his son, Arthur Jr., followed by a montage of his life post-first film. As king of Atlantis and Queen Mera’s (Heard) husband, he navigates royal duties and family life, discovering his son’s unique ability to communicate with fish. Meanwhile, his nemesis, David Hyde (Mateen II) aka Manta,...

Broadway got religious Sunday night - make that sacrilegious - with the wildly irreverent The Book of Mormon dominating the 65th annual Tony Awards, as expected. "This is such a waste of time," said Chris Rock as he was about to open the envelope, "like taking a hooker to dinner." Lampooning young Latter Day Saints on a mission to Uganda, the musical, with a book and score by South Park's Trey Parker and Matt Stone and Avenue Q's Robert Lopez, went into the evening with 14 nominations and walked away with nine Antoinette Perry Awards, including best musical, score, book,...

Here’s the easiest prediction we can make about this year’s Tony Awards, which will be presented June 12 at NYC’s Beacon Theatre: Spider-Man Turn Off the Dark will be a recurring punchline for returning host Neil Patrick Harris. The CBS broadcast will also manage to include a number from this still-to-officially-open show, featuring composers Bono and the Edge as well as on-stage Spidey Reeve Carney. Predicting the actual awards isn’t nearly as easy. But in a lot of the major categories, there seem to be some very strong front-runners. Expect The Book of Mormon (pictured left, top...

This past week, off-Broadway production The Pride, an exploration of gay culture past and present starring Hugh Dancy and Ben Whishaw (at left), opened. EW's Thom Geier awarded the production a B and said that it "grabs you with it's considerable intelligence and heart." Meanwhile, another off-Broadway show, A Lie of the Mind—a revival which is directed by Ethan Hawke and stars Laurie Metcalf and Keith Carradine—hit the boards. EW's Jeff Labrecque lauded Hawke for assembling "a marvelous combination of players to torment each other and resurrect the spellbinding uneasiness of the original" before awarding it a grade...
