While this week’s episode was perhaps more generally amiable and appealing and certainly more successful in its overall execution and worthy place in the upper half of the episode stack four seasons in, last week packed a plosive “Pow!” of a punch insofar as its appreciable visuals and creative utilization of the tried and true tropes of comic book lore, new and old.
