His faithful friends and assistants also show up along the way: Hugh Fraser as Poirot’s best friend and colleague Captain Hastings, Philip Jackson as Chief Inspector Japp, and Pauline Moran as his personal secretary, the incomparable Miss Lemon. Shadows may look a bit murky on some of the more highly-lit exterior scenes. The colors are vibrant and details, such as the weave of Poirot’s suit jacket or his incredibly waxed mustaches are stellar. ![]() The widescreen (aspect ratio: 1.77:1, 1080p resolution) images look great on a large-scale, high-definition television screen. For Agatha Christie and Poirot enthusiasts it is great to see these series remastered for the precision of Blu-ray. Acorn Media has released on Blu-ray for the first time a title only previously available on DVD: Agatha Christie’s Poirot: Series 7 & 8. ![]() ![]() Omega and Moira are mirrors of each other in Hickman’s story – the woman who knows the actual stakes and what can happen, and attempts to steer history towards a desired outcome. ![]() It works so well that Omega has to come back and start Orchis and get Nimrod online well ahead of schedule. But in the future of Moira’s tenth life, it all actually works. It’s the reversal of decades of X-Men comics, including Hickman’s own run – we’re always meant to look at mutants as the underdogs, we believe Moira MacTaggert when she says that no matter what the mutants always lose. The revelation that the Omega Sentinel we’ve been seeing since House of X #1 is not quite the Karima Shapandar from previous X-Men comics but rather a version of her from the future who’d come back in time to prevent a “mutant hell” in which the new dream of Charles Xavier – “mutant ascension” - had come to fruition, laying waste to humanity, post-humanity, and AI alike. ![]() That’s the line that made me audibly gasp. ![]() Silva with Valerio Schiti and Stefano Caselli ![]() ![]() ![]() Brown, the co-author of The Effective CIO, a technical book on Information Technology.

Eric Brown was born in Haworth, Yorkshire, in May 1960, and began writing in 1975. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Though Hoag provides occasional passages of genuine suspense, the intrigue here is never fully realized. Attempting to crack the case, feisty feminist Megan O'Malley-who hopes to become the first female field agent for the male-dominated Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension-finds herself paired with Mitch Holt, the town's love-scarred sheriff (and recovering alcoholic) who is facing assorted personal demons. The Norman Rockwell-esque community of Deer Lake, Minn., takes a turn toward Stephen King territory when the local lady doctor's son is snatched by a fiend who leaves enigmatic notes. Touted as the author's hardcover breakout novel (Hoag was the erstwhile bestselling star of Bantam's Loveswept romance series), this thriller, despite a compelling premise and several intriguing characters, ultimately disappoints. ![]() ![]() ![]() Steampunk most recognizably features anachronistic technologies or retrofuturistic inventions as people in the 19th century might have envisioned them - distinguishing it from Neo-Victorianism - and is likewise rooted in the era's perspective on fashion, culture, architectural style, and art. Steampunk works are often set in an alternative history of the Victorian era or the American "Wild West", where steam power remains in mainstream use, or in a fantasy world that similarly employs steam power. Steampunk is a subgenre of science fiction that incorporates retrofuturistic technology and aesthetics inspired by 19th-century industrial steam-powered machinery. ![]() "Maison tournante aérienne" (aerial rotating house) by Albert Robida for his book Le Vingtième Siècle, a 19th-century conception of life in the 20th century ![]() ![]() ![]() At the same time, she’s never really gotten over her high-school crush on him, and is still very attracted to him, so she keeps sending mixed signals.

He has no idea that his very presence reminds her of something she’d rather forget. Noah Rackham, popular, attractive, successful, is shocked when Adelaide won’t have anything to do with him. But she can’t, not without revealing an even darker secret. ![]() There are too many people here she’d rather avoid, people who were involved in that terrible June night fifteen years ago.Įver since the graduation party that changed her life, she’s wanted to go to the police and make sure the boys responsible-men now-are punished.
