I think DC should just make characters buff Butch lesbians more often tbh

This toy is so old I think I had it back in college, and it's traveled through several homes before ending up at my parents' house. None of my cats or housemates' cats through the ages really cared for it, but I was ever hopeful.

Rory, finally, is The Cat. She played with this thing for minutes on end, which for a kitten with the attention span of a mayfly is impressive.

Wait, I'm Sensing a Pattern

MAWS Season 1 episodes 5/6 had:

Jimmy getting kidnapped after feeling rejected last episode

Clark and Lois having a relationship rough patch

Clark and Lois going to go save him

Lois and Clark having an argument as they're trying

Jimmy having a great time with his kidnappers

Something extremely gay happening with the former (by reputation at this point) villans

And a wormhole being created at the end of the episode.

MAWS Season 2 episodes 5/7 has:

Clark getting kidnapped after feeling rejected last episode

Clark and Lois having a relationship rough patch

Lois and Jimmy going to go save him

Jimmy and Lois having an argument as they're trying

Clark having a not-so-fun time with his kidnappers

Something extremely gay happening with the former villans

And a wormhole being created at the end of the episode

If MAWS Season 3 has the same pattern happening again, but with Lois getting kidnapped (finally squaring that circle) and Clark and Jimmy having a friendship spat while they save her, AND we get something unapologetically EXTREMELY GAY, I swear I'll take every single damn dodgeball willingly.

Spoilers if you haven't seen the episode

After what happened in episode 5, Amanda Waller puts Metropolis in martial law and has sent out the HDC, the Human Defense Corps. her military personnel roaming around and harassing innocent civilians.

The HDC makes its first appearance in Human Defense Corps, in its own limited series back in 2003 where they were a military unit that fights back against extraterrestrial forces [Cover art by Clement Sauve, Juan Viasco, Guy Major]. They have been folded into the US military to help fight back against New Krypton in Superman: War of the Supermen #3 (2010).

Also if you want to see what crazy shit Amanda Waller is doing in the comic book universe give Absolute Power #1 (2024) a read and you will see how ruthless she can get. Out on July 3rd. And just look at that amazing cover art by Dan Mora too and he'll be doing the interior art too with the fantastic Mark Waid as the writer! Also give their World's Finest series a shot too!

The episode's title is a reference to Ocean's Eleven. Ocean's Eleven is a 1960s heist movie about Danny Ocean, who he and 10 other associates of his team up together to rob several Las Vegas casinos. I first watched this movie when it was remade in 2001 starring former Batman, George Clooney, Brad Pitt, and Matt Damon and have watched the later 2 sequels and the Oceans 8 spinoff starring Sandra Bullock as Debbie Ocean, Danny's sister. Fun movies if you haven't seen them.

Later in the episode, Lois plans on stealing the Jump Drive Ship from S.T.A.R. Labs and the design of it kinda reminds me of...

the space ship that brought Superman to Earth from Superman the Animated series. Also a good Superman cartoon if you need your Superman fix when waiting for new MAwS episodes!

Lois and Jimmy head to Leslie and Rory's place to hire them to break into S.T.A.R. Labs to steal the ship. I talked more about them in here and here respectively. Nice to see the both of them as a couple during the final day of Pride Month! #LoveIsNotForCowards

And speaking of queer couples, when later in the scene Rory decided to "leave the mission" Jimmy brings along Mallah and the Brain to help steal the ship as well! I talked a bit about them here and here.

Mallah and the Brain recount to everyone their multiversal hopping and I talked about the DC multiverse here and Mallah finally gets his beret to match his comic counterpart and the Brain looks just like a Dalek from Doctor Who.

Not surprised that the MAwS crew are Doctor Who fans.

As Leslie details out a plan for them to steal the ship, we see that one of her sources has told her that the guard has a family member at Silver Age Nursing Home.

So for those not in the know, comic book history is divided up into eras. From 1938 (Superman's first appearance in Action Comics #1) to 1956 is considered the Golden Age, the Silver Age was from 1956 to 1970, the Bronze Age was from 1970 to 1985, and the Modern Age was from 1985 to now.

Specifically, Silver Age of Comics was from 1956 to 1970. It began thanks to the success of the reintroduction of the then newest Flash, Barry Allen who debuted in Showcase #4 (1956). This era of comics is much more focused on science fiction and thanks to that a lot of powers and origins of superheroes now have a science/science fiction element to it for example the then new Green Lantern, Hal Jordan received his Green Lantern ring from a dying extraterrestrial, Abin Sir and Ray Palmer a.k.a the second Atom gains his powers from a white dwarf star matter. This was also the era where the Justice Society of America from the Golden Age was reimagined to the Justice League of America.

When Lex gets a surprise visit from Waller and Slade, he decides to show them Project M and explains what it is and shows off its capabilities when they go hunting Lois, Jimmy, Mallah, and the Brain. and based on what Lex says and the subtle design of the Project M robots, we can assume M is for Metallo like what AmerTek and Thomas Weston was developing in episode 3. I talk more about Metallo here.

And with that we finish the Easter Eggs and references of the episode! Come back next time to see how the gang free Clark from Brainiac and see what happens next for Kara after her realization of what happened!

I have been shipping Leslie and Rory since the show first started airing, so for almost a year now. This already makes me incredibly happy and paring them with Mallah and Brain only makes it better. Happy pride month, everyone!
