Linkara, how can you say that about yourself I don't think you gained weight I think your are squeezably soft and cuddly-WOAH! Okay......I think I better stop before he accuses me of being a "Fatal Attraction" creepy fangirl. o.o
Anyway, great review. I am surprised though you didn't add in a "The Ten Commandments" clip or god forbid a "Matrix" clip when the lady talked about a "Neo-Moses". But anyway, I really enjoyed it and I hope Linkara and his friends get closer to learning about The Entity and finding a way to stop it.

Yay another fangirl who thinks Linkara is smoking ho-wait.......OH NO! NOW I'VE CAUGHT IT! AAHH! *runs around in circles*

It's Miller time, really ? :D
-
06.06.2011 - 19:25 | Inglonias
You gained 20 to 30 pounds?
Huh...
I didn't notice.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:38 | SpeedyEricWell, as you can tell he gained some weight when you play his earlyesy videos and his most recent work back to back.
-
06.07.2011 - 02:01 | rockybalboa211
It's ok Linkara! I gained the respectable college 60! Yet, through dieting and dance, by this time janurary I should be back to my normal weight! You could try that p90 fitness thing! :D
-
06.09.2011 - 21:38 | SpeedyEricI forgot to mention that Brad "The Cinema Snob" Jones also gained some weight since 2007 when he started off his show by reviewing "Burial Ground: The Nights of Terror" and "Porno Holocaust."

06.07.2011 - 13:34 | ladydisketteFBI Agent: *walking into a sleezy bar* Pardon me good sirs, do you know where I can require some DRUGS perferrably of the methatemine or the crack variety?
LOL, That example just made me lol-ed so hard and I just when I had to take a quick breather from seeing Nostalgia Critic dressed up as Link with his manlegs showing XD Hilarious!

They seem to be confusing "spies" with agents. Agents can be spies, but not all spies are agents. Spies gather intel and hardly ever use force. Most good spies are usually backgrouders who would never stand out, unlike certain giant-eyed spies illustrated here. To be a really good spy he should actually have implants in order not to stand out so much. Yeesh.
-
06.06.2011 - 20:51 | Azarias Kale
On the contrary, that the 'gentlemen spies' that James Bond is based off of stood out like sore thumbs because of the money they had. However, the spies in Psi-Spy are barely even agents and more like Psi- Iwannabeaguntotingoneline r... and just where does the psi come from in the title?
-
06.07.2011 - 11:25 | mrskippy
It's not "psi," it's "sci." As in "Science."
Anyways, the Entity is somehow tied into the Magic Gun? (I figure since it's basically a person it deserves to pull caps, right?)
I guess that makes sense...that girl was killed because of some cult, so maybe the Entity is whatever that cult worshipped.
Ia! Ia! C'thulhu f'taghn!

Hey, that is not a bad theory, that is not a bad theory at all mrskippy. Perhaps Linkara should conduct a seance with the spirt of the magic gun and communicate with her to gather some information on it. :)
-
06.08.2011 - 06:22 | Azarias KaleSorry, you're right, my brain wasn't clicking over from playing Psi-Ops... I caught my mistake right as I hit send.
The Entity seems like a cross between Beyonder (the Secret Wars 1 Beyonder) and the Animoniter Suped-up from Blackest Night.
-
06.06.2011 - 22:31 | BooRat
From what I learned from history as well MOST spies aren't as... good looking... most look well like any normal person as they are ment to fit in with a crowd not stick out!
-
06.06.2011 - 19:37 | JT1983Im relitivly new to thee site, so this probubly wasent the best video to start with, But I liket it, keep it up.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:41 | SpeedyEricI recommend you have yourself a marathon of most of the videos on this site. I did it with NC, NChick, Linkara, Cinema Snob, Lupa, Phelous, and Film Brain.
-
06.07.2011 - 02:04 | Divide By Zero
Agree with what SpeedyEric said. At the very least you'd probably like to check out The Spoony One as well if you're going through Linkara's videos as a fair few of their story pieces cross over in the earlier stuff, and you might find yourself wondering where characters like Doctor Insano or the Ultimate Warrior come from.
Enjoy the site!
-
06.07.2011 - 09:25 | SpeedyEricWhat Divide By Zero said is also true.
-
06.06.2011 - 19:47 | David2
Nicely done... and I was half-expecting you to pull up a clip from "KISS and the Phantom of the Park" whenever the name "Starchild" was uttered.

10 bucks says that the ship's AI will be a better singer than Pollo.
-
06.06.2011 - 20:24 | e33laf"...insert your own TARDIS joke here."
But I wanted you to insert the TARDIS joke there Linkara! :P
-
06.06.2011 - 20:24 | Tal
I'm sorry about that missing piece, it just looked so tasty!
So... SCI Spy is Batman, In Space! Thank goodness he can breathe there.

Ah linkara your plot reminds me so much of Stargate.
Once you defeat the 'Badass' (aka Vyce) a even larger and more powerful foe apperas (The Entity) forcing you to discover your limit's once more.
Also in the vain of Stargates recuring theme of sideing with previous enemys to defeatt the current 'evil' would you conider a Lord Vyce team up?
I mean the man's not Dead and although you defeated his forces in this dimention I'm sure his forces still exists in the parallel Dimentions. Unless his tech was like the Borg where if you destroy the brain the body falls, except with the Borg having replaceable Queen's they ecsape that loophole.
Great review Linkara! And as always your slow burn plot grabs my attention! A await for the eventual Climax =D
-
06.07.2011 - 20:19 | ZeldaTheSwordsmanWell, we're bound to see Vyce again someday. Think of how much his suit must have cost Linkara. No way is that all we're seeing of him.

Wow, someone besides me knows about that KISS movie. The bad guy in this comic needs to hire better goons. The art was better than Liefeld, but it may take an hour or so for my eyes to recover from the coloring. I also just realized that my cat's eyes aren't as proportionally as big as Starchild's. And she has fairly large green eyes.
-
06.06.2011 - 20:47 | HankManStill has the Charlie's Angle's theme on his MP3? What's wrong with that?
-
06.06.2011 - 20:51 | Wolfgar
I wonder if you ever lord it over spoony that you get way more mileage out of your robot than he does his.
-
06.06.2011 - 20:53 | Zydrate
I wonder if this current story line will tie into the third anniversary, or is it just standalone.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:44 | SpeedyEricThe site anniversarys don't really tie in with the AT4W continuity, just the crossovers.
-
06.06.2011 - 20:53 | AaronJer
Linkara, your kitchen is moderately cluttered. This is a terrible, shameful disappointment.
-
06.06.2011 - 20:54 | MechaDon1980
Dumb comic. Cant' wait for the battle with the entity:)
-
06.06.2011 - 21:01 | SanJ922
The art reminds me of Boba Fett: Enemy of the Empire....
-
06.06.2011 - 21:01 | Cheshire Kitten
...Aw...but I liked your Bond parody in Sci-Spy 1...
Anyway, great review.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:03 | Linkara
LOL, so do I, but most people agree it went on a big too long. XD
-
06.06.2011 - 21:46 | SpeedyEricAfter I saw the Bond bit from that video, I would imagine to myself a shorter version of it. At least your video editing has improved alot since Halloween 2008 when you reviewed Spider-Man #56.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:09 | FODIsn’t the eye thing those “retro thermal lenses” that were mentioned?
-
06.06.2011 - 22:57 | LinkaraIf it was just contact lenses that'd be something, but the eyes are clearly HUGE and wrongly-proportioned for his head.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:13 | laughingman19
A comment of throwing someone out an airlock naked and no B5 joke? I am most disappointed, Linkara. Although, it was still a very good review.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:14 | Poisonpen
Excellent work, sir.
One thing bothers me, though: Isis Nile. Really? As in the god and river? ...*why*? I don't suppose they give any justification for this, do they? That just sounds like the apex of baseless theme names. Yuck.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:22 | 0hai
I think that was the best, and most ominous ending yet. Subtle, with character interactions, and story elements discussed without outright exposition. Very nice.
-
Um, yep to Doug Monech writing Batman when he's not writing Batman...he wrote (and I believe, CREATED) Moon Knight...long regarded as Marvel's answer to Batman. Argh. :(
-
06.06.2011 - 22:20 | Kari:Busts out Moon Knight number 1:
Yep, you're right. It's not TERRIBLE, by the way, but I might have to reread it thinking of Batman.
Lewis, you are, of course, welcome to it if you want it.
-
06.06.2011 - 22:54 | BooRatI thought Punisher was!?
-
06.07.2011 - 07:46 | Drake666Punisher is more like the anti-hero Batman :P (and not the anti-Batman... that would be Prometheus...)
-
06.06.2011 - 21:24 | ToastMaster623
The face you made when you pretended to be dead was utterly hilarious!
-
06.06.2011 - 21:26 | erin_baliya
Awesome video, Linkara!
So, Sebastian Starchild is Batman? Guess that was an undercover name he came up with.
I too liked your Bond parody from Sci-Spy 1. It was awesome. But, I guess all good things must come to an end. But, hey, the Charlie's Angels theme is cool too, so it still works.
Looking forward to your next review.
P.S. I remember what you did last week. You wrapped up your review of the epic fail that was Ultimatum, if that helps any. I must admit, though, before you reviewed it, I was tempted to pick up a copy and read it myself, like I did with All-Star Batman and Robin and The Ultimates 3 (yes, I did read them. It was an impulse thing).

Three things you should do when you make it your AI for a spaceship, number one make sure that female, number two place code that make sure it does not person team into the point where police that you're not necessary for the ships functions she's it is not tried to kill you.
Number three prepare for awkward conversations with the engineer.
-
06.06.2011 - 21:36 | Yoshemo
Gah! I'm really getting curious about the Entity... Your storyline is so much fun
-
06.06.2011 - 21:38 | norman728funny as always. I see you didn't go with the obvious Fifth Element clip with the button joke.
-
06.06.2011 - 22:01 | Schizoid
"Spy Hard"! Awesome! Wait. A ninja vanished while your back was turned? Isn't that what they do? When they're not shoving a katana through your chest, anyway...I want a karaoke singing robot. :( Then maybe I'll have someone to play all these Karaoke Revolution games with.
-
06.07.2011 - 07:47 | Drake666I though the same thing ! Ninja + Back turned == Vanished ! (it would make a great t-shirt...)

06.10.2011 - 17:23 | thelaughingfool
Don't you remember Pollo's singing from Star Trek/X-Men #1? He has the voice of an angel.
-
06.06.2011 - 22:08 | KariI got a good chuckle out of the panel where he's refusing to be enhanced- and is apparently pierced by a number of wires, or something, since he looked like a Saint Sebastian image only with Nerf arrows. THEN I realized his name is Sebastian and they did it on purpose. Subtle.
-
06.06.2011 - 22:11 | RockmanX3Wow Linkara, I've been watching your show from the very beginning and never realized you gained weight.
I honestly think you look a lot better now.
-
06.07.2011 - 00:49 | CtuI agree

1:50- Actually, Starchild’s ship from the first comic that transforms into a giant electric razor looks like it’s one of Batman’s vehicles.
14:07- Yeah, that too.
5:49- The term “Neo-Moses” sounds to me like Moses if he was a character in The Matrix Trilogy. …Wait, Neo IS like Moses.
9:17- This situation actually worked when Rorschach did this in “Watchmen”; both the graphic novel and the movie.
11:51- I was afraid that this comic was gonna turn into “Porn IN SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE!! !”
I also agree that this comic is a hair better that the first issue. For one thing, it explains what wasn’t told in Part 1.
Nice job on using Weird Al’s “Spy Hard” for the credit music. Can’t wait for next week’s Millar Time to see how terrible Spawn/Batman is.
