As critic Glenn Kenny writes in his obituary for Decider, Connery will always be "tied to the role of James Bond, [but] so many of Connery’s non-Bond roles were [...] fascinating, challenging, and cinematically important."

Angel and Faith Season Ten #16
Written by Victor Gischler
Art by Cliff Richards
Colors by Michelle Madsen
Published by Dark Horse Comics
While Angel is off dealing with Old Ones, demon lords, and Spike actually dating Buffy over in Buffy Season Ten, Angel and Faith Season Ten #16 focuses on Faith, Fred, and Magic Town’s (An area of London where demons and various magic and “special” folk live) top cop Brandt’s more “low key” work. Victor Gischler writes Faith as both wistful and sassy as she moves out of the apartment she and Giles used to share and starts to investigate some mysterious killings at a prep school. She and Fred have a nice buddy dynamic, but Cliff Richards draws their faces in a similar manner and it is hard to tell them apart. Richards’ combination of hyper detailed figures and less detailed backgrounds give the art a static feel,...

Angel & Faith: Season 10 #2-3
Written by Victor Gischler
Art by Will Conrad. Colours by Michelle Madsen.
Covers by Scott Fischer, and Variant Covers by Chris Samnee and Jordie Bellaire
Published by Dark Horse Comics
Three issues into the new season of Angel & Faith and it is becoming apparent that the title of the comic is a tad misleading; at least, when met with the expectations of what last season’s Angel & Faith was. While last volume was very much a “team up” series between the two lost souls of the Buffyverse, the current volume has thus far divided them. The ampersand separating Angel and Faith in the title has taken on new meaning. This is a comic telling two stories concurrently: the story of Angel, and the story of Faith. It’s an interesting approach, and doesn’t cheapen the heartfelt ending of last volume’s Angel & Faith.
Or maybe...

“Angel & Faith: Season 10” #1
Written by Victor Gischler
Art by Will Conrad
Colours by Michelle Madsen
Executive Produced by Joss Whedon
Published by Dark Horse
Immediately upon opening this book, it’s clear this is a Buffyverse comic unlike any we’ve seen in some time. Aesthetically, the debut issue of Angel & Faith‘s second series may even seem a little jarring at first, being so different from Rebekah Isaacs’ work on the previous volume. Will Conrad’s textured illustrations and noir/thriller-esque scene compositions as well as Michelle Madsen’s dark colour palette bring forth a return to Angel’s TV series roots, as well as Idw comic run. This looks radically different than any other Buffyverse comic published by Dark Horse in the last seven years, and its darkness could become a beacon of light this season. This issue looks most alive during its nighttime scenes, with Angel walking...

With the holidays (and snowstorms, in some parts of the country), it feels like an ideal time to hunker down and marathon TV shows, movies, or books. In fact, 53 percent of readers say marathoning TV shows is their ideal way to spend a lazy afternoon in today’s EW Daily Poll on the homepage. So tell us: What are you currently bingeing on? Maybe you’ll give someone else — either trapped with family or alone — an idea.
We’ll start. My colleague Denise Warner has been watching Grey’s Anatomy all day — “in the background, of course,” she adds, because...
