Adventures of Captain Marvel: Boomerang (Chapter 8) (3x478)

: 09, 2024

Captain Marvel! Faster than the speeding bullets he shoots at fleeing victims! Able to throw petty criminals to their death in a single bound! Star of episodes whose titles have no bearing on what actually happens in them! That applies to Chapter 8, Boomerang, which features neither self-returning throwing sticks nor basic cable networks airing children’s cartoons. It does however feature henchmen with names like Barnett, Ives, and JG Wentworth who are currently holding Betty and Billy prisoner at a bombing range, which frankly, sounds a helluva lot cooler than TopGolf. Their fate will be decided by The Scorpion, whose identity we’re rapidly getting closer to learning and going “Huh…” with the maximum amount of disinterest allowed by federal law. Will Betty get knocked unconscious again? Will Billy’s voice crack? Will Captain Marvel execute civilians without fear of reprisal? The answer to all of these questions is of course: Boomerang!
