The Venture Bros.: Rainbow-powered Venture Bros. episode!


There are more than a year, but The Venture Bros., finally back on Sunday. We caught a glimpse of the second episode - Captain Sunshine and all - and have a spoiler-Lite preview of the last dose Ventures "madness.

Update: It seems that the episode preview, we were actually on this coming Sunday's episode - not the first. Hopefully we'll get more of what has happened since the last final of the season in the first.

The Venture Bros. returns Sunday with an episode of the Rainbow-wearing superhero Captain Sunshine. Captain Sunshine can not remember? The monarch said, when he was in prison:

They sent the charred remains of Wonder Boy in his beloved Captain Sunshine?

Needless to say, Captain Sunshine is still resentment. But he will be distracted by all the efforts to revenge, when he caught up with the Venture family.

Premiere This Sunday is also satisfying and frustrating. Superman and Batman are parodied to death, but Captain Sunshine succeeds in a surprising mixture of both with a twist of pure lie Venture Bros.. Just when you think you have the brand are expected jokes writers run it a little further, right down the line. Why is it frustrating? For those of us who see chewing at the bit to the consequences of the end of last season, we would expect most often. Yes, we know who is Rusty's new bodyguard (though I'm not sure it's someone) the whole last season. Otherwise, we get mostly small nods to the changes of the last season. Yes, the clones were destroyed, and Hank's hair is slightly longer, the number 21 is even worse than usual cares and the cocoon is still almost a wreck, but the main emphasis on stand-alone plot. It looks like the creators are crumbs falling slowly for some time until they make us more answers. Of course, gradually evolving mythology, a trademark of The Venture Bros., but it was much more than a year because we had no new shares, companies, and I was getting impatient.

But I'll take what I can get, and what I see only one episode par excellence with a host of new faces and old friends. Moreover, the consequence of the strange subplots is teased in the trailer. And even if there are many open questions, at least we can expect some venturing regularly for a while.

The first fourth season of The Venture Bros. broadcast Sunday 18 October at midnight on Adult Swim.
