New York Times Bestseller A graphic novel of war and its aftermath. A powerful, compulsively page-turning, vivid, and moving tribute to the experience of war and PTSD, The White Donkey tells the story of Abe, a young Marine recruit who experiences the ugly, pedestrian, and often meaningless side of military service in rural Iraq. He enlists in hopes of finding that missing something in his life but comes to find out that it's not quite what he expected. Abe gets more than he bargained for when his journey takes him to the middle east in war-torn Iraq. This is a story about a Marine, written and illustrated by a Marine, and is the first graphic novel about the war in Iraq from a veteran. The White Donkey explores the experience of being a Marine, as well as the challenges that veterans face upon their return home, and its raw power will leave you in awe. |

Even when Rick points guns at innocent people and steals their things, he’s not like Negan. He doesn’t kill unnecessarily, he shakes their hands, and he’s fighting for the greater good. This penultimate episode of season 7 of The Walking Dead showed us the similarities and differences between the leadership styles of Rick, Negan, Gregory, Maggie and Natania. We can expect some of these leaders to fall from power in the season finale.
And Eugene, definitely not a leader, continues to be lame.
Walkers that live in and around the water are the coolest looking walkers. Seaweed dripping off them. Random stuff growing out of their heads. Flesh rotted and falling off. Gross, but cool. Kudos to the makeup department for this episode. These waterlogged walkers hang out around Oceanside, where our survivors are headed after Tara decided to tell Rick about their stash of guns.
It’s clear that the Alexandrians don’t want to fight Oceanside, but they really want—need—the guns. We get a sense of how everyone is feeling as they make their way to the seaside community. Rick tells Tara not to feel bad if things go south, but she seems to already feel bad. Enid asks Carl if he ever thinks about who he killed. Rick asks Michonne if she’s good while she climbs a tree to be the designated sniper, and she replies that she’s “good enough.” Jesus is regretting not trying to stop Sasha and Rosita, while Daryl tries to be optimistic and hopes they’re already back from The Sanctuary, since Sasha is such a good shot and Rosita can take care of herself. Daryl knows the alternative, where “a whole lot of people” will die. Eric, who has joined Aaron on the mission this time, says to him, “Being with you, well, it makes abject terror tolerable.” Everyone who has joined Rick and Tara on this journey to Oceanside is dedicated to the cause, even though none of them are enjoying it. They are soldiers preparing for war.
The Alexandrians take their positions, Jesus and Daryl set dynamite, and Tara goes in.
Sasha is at The Sanctuary, alive, and in the same room Daryl and Dwight were recently locked up. A Savior named David checks on her (or should I say, checks her out) with the purpose of proving he’s way more creepy than Negan. Less lethal, but more creepy. Sasha asks him for some water, and David proceeds to grope her and ask if she remembers him from the night before. We find out that she was quickly caught, and tied up by David, after breaking in. David attempts to rip off Sasha’s shirt before she head-butts him, and then Negan shows up.
At the sight of Negan, David turns into a fearful child, because he knows that what he was about to do to Sasha is against Negan’s rules. “I wouldn’t want to be somewhere where the leader let that fly,” Negan says as though he’s a morally grounded leader. Though David is panicking and apologizing, it doesn’t matter. Negan pulls out a gigantic knife and jabs it through David’s neck. Lucille must be reserved for special occasions. Sasha watches on, relatively unphased, and Negan asks someone to get her a new shirt.
Negan now recognizes Sasha from his brutal killings of Glenn and Abraham. He immediately questions whether Rick sent her, and she separates herself from Rick by calling him, using a less polite word, Negan’s minion. Despite the fact that it’s obvious Sasha broke in to get revenge, and that she’s brave, Negan immediately gives her the pitch of why she should join the Saviors. He gives her a knife to do whatever she wants with: kill the David walker that will soon emerge in her cell, kill herself, or do nothing and get eaten. He essentially tells her to get over his murders, and says to her as he leaves, “I just want you to understand. We’re not monsters.”
I have a hard time believing Negan actually thinks of himself as an okay guy. His rules at The Sanctuary are, primarily, to benefit himself. There are very few benefits to being an ordinary Savior. Sure, there is food and protection from outside threats (at least until next week), but there is always the looming threat of Negan himself, which is worse than most outside threats. Cannibals might be worse. You can’t trust that you’ll be safe even if you follow the rules, because maybe someone like Dwight will frame you. Negan bashes people’s heads in, throws them into fires, and, for minor offences, takes an iron to their faces. He makes other people kill, he takes wives as property in exchange for basic necessities, he forces people to do the jobs he wants them to do, and he intimidates everyone at every chance he gets. So, yes, Negan, despite your charisma, you are a monster. And so is David, zombie or not.
Eugene, Eugene, Eugene. What can I say? He’s lame. He’s sent to bring Sasha bedding and water, and he goes on about the allergenic qualities of the pillow. Really? Sasha, understandably, asks him what they’ve done to him. Eugene says, “They’re keeping me safe,” which confirms that this is his only concern. He asks Sasha to accept Negan’s offer, and explains that while being brave in the RV for 37 minutes was awesome, he can’t do it and doesn’t need to anymore. He implies his bravery was brought on by Abraham, who is gone. Mentioning Abraham again, he begs Sasha, “Please say yes. He would want you to—he wouldn’t—I do.” The bravest thing Eugene has done in a while is to admit that.
Eugene leaves and the David walker wakes up. Sasha is still deciding where she goes from here.
Have I mentioned lately how awesome Maggie is? She’s just hanging out at The Hilltop, teaching people how to garden and retrieving new plants from outside the walls. Her gradual and effortless takeover of The Hilltop bothers Gregory so much that he ventures outside the walls to talk to her. I’m fairly sure he hasn’t been outside the walls since they were built. But Maggie is out there digging up a particularly stubborn plant, all alone, so now is his chance to bombard her with ridiculous questions.
In particular, Gregory wants to know why Maggie is still at The Hilltop now that her friends are “gone” (on a mission with Rick) and Dr. Carson is gone, too. Maggie points out that Gregory said he’d get the doctor back, and her friends are only gone for a while. Gregory huffs and puffs and eventually agrees to try to work together for the sake of the community, right before he thinks about stabbing Maggie while she’s working on the plant. He doesn’t do that, probably because it’s too messy. More messiness shows up: a walker, still far away. Maggie offers to get it, but that’s offensive to him; he doesn’t need a pregnant lady to protect him. Yeah. With Gregory being this sexist, I can guess why Jesus never felt like he belonged. But Gregory chickens out, and Maggie has to get that walker and the one that attacks Gregory in the meantime. I don’t think there’s any way that the walker wouldn’t have immediately killed Gregory, but that wouldn’t make for good storytelling.
Gregory admits he never killed a walker before. Some other people from The Hilltop walk by, having witnessed the walker situation, and Maggie relays to them that Gregory is still learning because he hadn’t killed one before. “That’s not what he told us,” one of them says, sounding outwardly critical of Gregory right in front of him. Poor Gregory. Nobody likes him.
Natania enters her Oceanside house and is surprised by Tara, who has somehow managed to sneak in without being noticed and is now pointing a gun at Natania’s face. For Natania, this immediately validates her philosophy to kill all outsiders on sight. Then Cyndie walks in, and the conversation goes like this:
Tara: Hey, Cyndie.
Cyndie: You promised.
Tara: Yeah, I did. Put your hands on your head.
Tara frantically explains the situation: that they’re there to take their guns and fight the Saviors with or without their cooperation. She relays the additional horrible things that the Saviors have done: killing her friends and girlfriend. If Oceanside joined their group of communities, they would have an army to fight for the greater good. She begs them to talk to Rick, but Natania will have none of it. Cyndie wants to talk with them, but she can’t convince Natania in time. Tara only had a little time to try to convince them, and now the dynamite is going off.
Outside, Michonne is firing shots in front of people as they run, luring them all to a central location. Daryl yells orders for people to get on the ground and put their hands on their head, which Jesus follows up with, “Please.” See, the Alexandrians are polite. Well, Negan might say “please” in a very sarcastic tone. Jesus was genuine.
Natania and Cyndie manage to overpower Tara, who reveals that her gun isn’t even loaded. Again, she tells them to just talk to Rick. Natania puts a (loaded) gun to her head and drags her out, as a hostage, to confront the group.
All of Oceanside is gathered, on the ground, overpowered by the Alexandrians. Looking in as an outsider, Rick seems pretty evil at the moment. But he’s not Negan. Rick insists nobody has to get hurt. “This is just about what you have. What we need.” See, Negan will take everything, regardless of whether it’s a need or a want, and it will always be for himself. Before Natania can shut her up, Cyndie tells her companions that the Alexandrians want them to fight the Saviors. She knows the message means more coming from her than from Rick. Natania still has a gun pointed at Tara’s head, and Michonne is still high in the tree, ready to shoot if needed, but Tara yells at her not to.
The noise has attracted walkers, and Michonne warns them of the incoming, which gives Cyndie a chance to clock Natania in the head and save Tara yet again. Rick releases the two whose hands are tied and gives one of them his knife. Everyone, together, fights off the walkers. When they’re done, Rick’s knife is voluntarily returned to him, and they shake hands. See? Completely civil. But Natania is like Eugene if he decided to be brave enough to create a survival plan for more than himself. She prefers the cowardly route. “We’re not fighting with you. So take your damn guns and go.”
Negan visits Sasha and finds that she used the knife to kill the David walker. To him, that means Sasha is choosing to join the Saviors, and that makes her a winner. He tells her that she’ll stop Rick from carrying out whatever plan he has. It’s unclear who relayed Rick’s plan to Negan. Eugene wasn’t aware of an attack plan, though he could guess it. Or have we time shifted a bit again, and it’s Gregory who relayed this information to Simon?
Because Gregory is now in his office after his walker encounter, drinking and checking out his bloody face. He pulls out a map and tells his assistant (servant?) to pack a bag, because they’re going to drive somewhere. Somewhere, of course, is to meet Simon. Like Eugene, Gregory is assuming the Saviors will protect him, but he doesn’t even know what a threat looks like. My guess is Gregory and Simon will both lose next week.
Rick needs to win, so he takes every last gun from Oceanside. It’s a bit ridiculous to leave them with absolutely no protection. We can be pretty sure they’ll need guns for something next week. But Tara assures them they’ll get their guns back, and she thanks Cyndie for the three times she saved her life. Cyndie and some others want to join the fight, but it’s everybody or nobody at Oceanside. As they’re leaving, Tara admits that she doesn’t feel bad about taking the guns, and Carl tells Enid that he thinks about the people he didn’t kill, too. Everyone feels guilty that Negan is still alive.
At the Sanctuary, Eugene talks to Sasha through the door. She says she made the wrong decision to join Negan, and she just wants Eugene to get her a weapon to kill herself. She doesn’t want Negan to force her to put their friends in danger. When we see Sasha’s face, we know she’s conning Eugene into getting her a murder weapon even though he brought her pickles. But at this moment, I knew what Sasha would get: Eugene’s homemade suicide pills. Fail. I would love to see Sasha and Eugene redeem themselves next week.
Rosita meets the Alexandrians at the gate when they return home. Daryl and Jesus are happy to see her, but are worried for Sasha. Rosita brought a visitor home with her: Dwight. When the door to Dwight’s cell opens, Daryl goes ballistic and Rick has to stop him from attacking. Turns out Dwight wants to help take down Negan, but becoming buddies with this group after everything he’s done is going to be tough. When Dwight says he’s there to help, Rick pulls out a Negan attitude and replies with, “Okay. Get on your knees.”
Sunday is the season finale, folks! It’s going to be epic. Alexandria, The Kingdom, The Hilltop, the Scavengers, and Oceanside’s guns are off to war. Will they get Negan? Who will die? Will there be a major cliffhanger that leaves us frantic for the entire summer? I hope not. Last year was rude.
What I want to see next week: Epicness. Carol’s awesome moves. Daryl and a crossbow. Michonne and her katana. Morgan joining the fight. Shiva biting someone. Jesus using ninja skills. Jadis talking weird. Negan losing. Rick winning.

The DC Extended Universe (DCEU) has brought us Batman V Superman and Suicide Squad, and promises us more solo character movies as well as Justice League, where the heroes unite. The DCEU plans don’t end there, however. Our future also holds a solo Batman movie and a stand-alone Nightwing film! So what’s up with Batman and Robin?
Despite whatever mixed reviews Batman v Superman received, there was a positive response to Ben Affleck as the Caped Crusader from many fans. DC and Warner Bros. chose to capitalize on that response by getting Affleck involved in a solo Batman film, working both as a lead and also as a creative mind behind the film. Affleck was set to produce and direct the solo film, tentatively titled The Batman (although Affleck has admitted the title could change) and even wrote a script with president and Chief Creative Officer of DC, Geoff Johns.
However, everything began to change with Ben Affleck stepped down from the director’s chair. Affleck has stated that he is committed to the project, and currently remains as a producer and star of the film. During his announcement, he explained, “Performing this role demands focus, passion, and the very best performance I can give. It has become clear that I cannot do both jobs to the level they require.”
With Affleck stepping down, other changes followed. The script received an overhaul, rewritten by Chris Terrio (Argo), and another rewrite and further changes are possible. The first script was referred to by Affleck as “original,” pulling from and inspired by the comic books, but not necessarily following a particular story arc. (Despite this, there are fans who believe that Jason Todd, one of many Robins, may be involved in an “Under the Red Hood” style story, after Batman v Superman hinted at the death of Robin at the hands of The Joker.) While the original script included Joe Manganiello as Slade “Deathstroke” Wilson and other villains, it seems that even this information might not be set in stone either, as Manganiello gave an uncertain “maybe” when asked on Pittsburgh Today Live if he was still involved with the solo Batman movie.
With the director’s chair open after Affleck dropped that particular responsibility, Matt Reeves (known for his work with the Planet of the Apes reboot franchise and Cloverfield) was up to direct. After some confusion about whether he would take on the project or not, it was finally confirmed and announced by Warner Bros. and Reeves. During the announcement, Reeves said, “I have loved the Batman story since I was a child… I am incredibly honored and excited to be working with Warner Bros. to bring an epic and emotional new take on the Caped Crusader to the big screen.”
With so much uncertainty, it is no surprise that there is no release date yet for The Batman. Joe Manganiello stated, “The movie will start shooting whenever [the] pieces are in place.” While we wait for more definitive answers, let’s talk about Robin… Or rather Robin after he left the Bat nest and became Nightwing.
In February, Warner Bros. announced they want to move forward with a stand-alone Nightwing film, to be directed by Chris McKay (who just worked on a little animated feature called The Lego Batman Movie). Bill Dubuque (The Accountant) is set to write the script. With the announcement of the live-action film to be part of the DCEU, fans have already begun dream-casting. But the film is in very beginning stages of development with no release date announced, and casting will likely be even further in the future than the solo Batman movie.
Casting will be an important process, as Nightwing reportedly has the “best backside in comics.” (No pressure, future Nightwing actor!) Nightwing, also known as Dick Grayson, was the first Robin to be taken under Batman’s wing (pun intended). The youngest in a family of acrobats, Grayson’s parents were murdered and Bruce Wayne took the boy as a legal ward and eventual partner in crime-fighting. Grayson eventually left to lead Teen Titans in the 1980s comic books and took on the Nightwing persona, fighting crime in Gotham’s neighboring Blüdhaven.
Director Chris McKay has already demonstrated his ability to direct a film with Robin (albeit an animated kid’s version), and has expressed in an episode of podcast “Shanlian on Batman” that he wants the movie to be, “really interesting, intriguing, action-packed character movie.” While he is still in post-production for the next film in the Planet of the Apes franchise, Nightwing might be next up to bat. (Just assume all puns are intended.)
The DCEU has several movies coming down the pipeline, and while it might take a while, it looks like Warner Bros. has some plans for Batman and Robin. Who knows? Maybe we’ll be lucky and see them together on screen too!

Diana Gabaldon’s brilliant storytelling has captivated millions of readers in her bestselling and award-winning Outlander saga. Now, in her first-ever graphic novel, Gabaldon gives readers a fresh look at the events of the original Outlander: Jamie Fraser’s side of the story, gorgeously rendered by artist Hoang Nguyen.   After too long an absence, Jamie Fraser is coming home to Scotland—but not without great trepidation. Though his beloved godfather, Murtagh, promised Jamie’s late parents he’d watch over their brash son, making good on that vow will be no easy task. There’s already a fat bounty on the young exile’s head, courtesy of Captain Black Jack Randall, the sadistic British officer who’s crossed paths—and swords—with Jamie in the past. And in the court of the mighty MacKenzie clan, Jamie is a pawn in the power struggle between his uncles: aging chieftain Colum, who demands his nephew’s loyalty—or his life—and Dougal, war chieftain of Clan MacKenzie, who’d sooner see Jamie put to the sword than anointed Colum’s heir. And then there is Claire Randall—mysterious, beautiful, and strong-willed, who appears in Jamie’s life to stir his  compassion . . . and arouse his desire.    But even as Jamie’s heart draws him to Claire, Murtagh is certain she’s been sent by the Old Ones, and Captain Randall accuses her of being a spy. Claire clearly has something to hide, though Jamie can’t believe she could pose him any danger. Still, he knows she is torn between two choices—a life with him, and whatever it is that draws her thoughts so often elsewhere.      Step into the captivating, passionate, and suspenseful world of The Exile , and experience the storytelling magic of Diana Gabaldon as never before.   |

Movie Screening are a way to see some of the biggest films of the year for free. You can find these passes online through sites like Gofobo or Advanced Movie Screenings. Another way is to find a person outside of the theater who is giving out screening passes. There are usually 2 types of screenings: Regular Advance Screenings and Secret Movie Screenings. Here is the breakdown of each one:
-A weeks or couple weeks before film comes out
-Film is already finished
-Used to help promote film by word of mouth
-You can bring cell phones
-You bring your passes and get in line
-Months before a film is released
-Film is not fully finished therefore film is being test screened
-Audience completes questionnaire at end
-No recording devices
– You have to fill out an NDA
-You have a smaller chance of getting in because of selection process
-Get in line at least 1 ½-2 hours early
-Bring a book or something else to entertain besides phone
-Grab food on the way to eat while you’re waiting
-Talk with people near you because they can provide insight into their experience with screenings
-If you can’t bring phone with you in theater then leave it in vehicle
-Keep an eye out for people giving other screening tickets
-Go to screening that takes place in a theater near you
-No trailers are shown before movie
-Movie may have an end credit sequence, but if there are more than one chances are you won’t see them.
There is a possibility to attend a premiere screening of a film. It can be through a contest online. Usually you are required to wear formal attire. A cool opportunity to see the movie with those who created it. Premieres are held at popular venues such as the TLC Chinese Theater in Hollywood.
If you love film, screenings are worth checking out. You may not always get in, but the passes are always free. After doing it for a while, you will develop the best knowledge of how the system works and learn a little more about the filmmaking process.

Another movie about Transformers is coming this summer, and while there’s a lot we know we can expect from Michael Bay, there just might be more than meets the eye with Transformers: The Last Knight. In the wake of new footage shown at CinemaCon this year in Las Vegas, it’s time to jump into what we know so far about the summer blockbuster!
Directed by Michael Bay (who swears that this is really the last film in the franchise he will helm), Transformers: The Last Knight is a sequel to Age of Extinction. Produced by Don Murphy, Tom DeSanto, Ian Bryce, and Lorenzo di Bonaventura, with the screenplay written by Art Marcum, Matt Holloway (Iron Man), and Ken Nolan (Black Hawk Down), the film’s story comes from the minds of the mentioned writers as well as Akiva Goldsman (who is currently producing Star Trek Discovery for CBS All Access this year).
With the franchise having earned $3.7 billion worldwide so far, expect more sequels, prequels, and spin-offs. Paramount has put together a team, headed by Akiva Goldsman, to create a Transformers “cinematic universe,” similar to what we have seen coming from DC and Marvel. For example, a Bumblebee spin-off film is already projected to premiere June 8, 2018 and a Transformers 6 is slated for June 28, 2019. (Let’s just hope that Steve Jablonsky keeps composing for the films, as his continued work in the franchise has been brilliant thus far.)
But that’s the future of Transformers. The next film of the Hasbro franchise coming down the pipeline this summer is The Last Knight. The movie began principal photography in May 2016 in Havana, Cuba. Filming then continued in Phoenix and Detroit, before moving on to European locations such as Scotland, Wales, England, Ireland, Norway, etc. Filming wrapped in December 2016, and a trailer was released the next day, coming in as the third highest viewed trailer of 2016. You can see it for yourself here:
Other television spots have come out, teasing us about what to expect, but with nearly 20 minutes of footage released at CinemaCon in March, along with a new trailer, we know a bit more about the “Bayventure” we will be taking this summer. It looks like humans are at war with all Transformers, Autobot and Decepticon alike. With the two species of flesh and metal struggling to survive, Optimus Prime seems to be gone. Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg) and friends are seeking answers for the future by looking to the past and the history of Transformers on Earth. That past looks to WWII and Nazis, and even further back to King Arthur, the wizard Merlin, and the Knights of the Roundtable. The search for answers will take us to a ruined Chicago, Stonehenge, and more, along with a visit to the estate of English lord, Sir Edmund Burton (Anthony Hopkins). How long have Transformers been coming to Earth, and why? As the war wages on, will friends become enemies, and vice versa?
Rumors also flew around during 2016 that Optimus Prime will find destroyed Cybertron and learn that he was responsible for its demise. To revive it, Prime must find an artifact, and that artifact rests on Earth. This is an unconfirmed plot point, but wouldn’t it be fun if it were true and that artifact was Excalibur? (I’m just saying.) Rumor also has it that the footage shown at CinemaCon reveals the identity of the “last knight” referred to in the title. I’m happy to reveal that… you’ll have to watch the movie yourself to find out.
Rumors aside, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura told Collider that Transformers: The Last Knight will explore how Transformers came to be and how they converted from a slave species to a sentient race. He explained that the film will dig deeper into how the divisions within the species arose. It seems that the film will attempt to further expand the mythology of the Transformers “cinematic universe.” (Maybe there IS something to those rumors?)
The PG-13 film will bring back lots of familiar names along with some fresh faces. Mark Wahlberg will be back as single father and inventor, Cade Yeager. Josh Duhamel will reprise his role as Lieutenant Colonel William Lennox along with Tyrese Gibson returning as Robert Epps. And if you didn’t get enough of John Turturro as Seymour Simmons, rest easy. He’ll also be coming back. The always impressive Stanley Tucci will also return for Transformers: The Last Knight as Joshua Joyce (the man who tried to make his own Transformers).
Expect to see and hear some familiar Transformers as well, including Optimus Prime (voiced by Peter Cullen), Megatron, Hound (voiced by John Goodman), Bumblebee, and Grimlock, the giant metal T-Rex we met in Age of Extinction. You’ll also see other Transformers, such as Sqweeks, Barricade, Cogman, Hot Rod, Canopy, Crosshairs (voiced by John DiMaggio), Knights of Cybertron, and even some baby Dinobots. The
Fresh faces join the cast of Transformers: The Last Knight. Isabela Moner (100 Things to Do Before High School) will play scrappy and street-smart tomboy, Izabella. The fantastic Anthony Hopkins will be playing Sir Edmund Burton, an astronomer and historian who lives on his large estate with Transformers. Laura Haddock will fill the role of Vivian Wimbley, an Oxford professor who teams up with Cade. Santiago Cabrera is a mercenary for the TRF (Transformers Reaction Force), attempting to wipe all Transformers off the face of the Earth. Liam Garrigan will be King Arthur, a role he was apparently made for as he also played King Arthur on Once Upon a Time. Comedian Jerrod Carmichael (The Carmichael Show) is playing in a currently undisclosed role.
You can see the cast yourself in a more in-depth trailer that was released March 2017, right here:
That’s what we know so far! Transformers: The Dark Knight will be released in the U.S. June 23, 2017 in 2D, 3D, and IMAX 3D. While you wait, you can check out the Facebook page, or follow the film’s official Twitter (@transformers).

Since the destruction of the Hellmouth, the Slayers—newly legion—have gotten organized and are kicking some serious undead butt.
