Talk:Daring Done?/@comment-10390252-20170903163911

A good story that shows that, amongst her other skills, G M Berrow knows how to write superhero stories. Seriously, it's a standard superhero trope that she's using in this story - "I am more of a threat to the innocent than those I fight!" Just about every superhero has done that one at least once!

Naturally, Caballeron turned out to be an aggravating influence and, equally naturally, he couldn't help needlessly complicating his own plan by not leaving well enough alone. That said, I think that Gillian deserves credit for not making everything right with a stroke of her pen. Daring had screwed up in not being involved in the post-mission clean-up (something that I notice was mentioned that the Avengers had taken responsibility for in this year's Spider Man: Homecoming).

I liked the story of Somnambula too; it had the feel of a real myth of antiquity and used the Sphinx correctly (especially in its use of riddles). It's good to see more of the pre-Unification lore of the Pony World, this time with a pseudo-Egyptian culture. I wonder where this fits in the timeline!

So, yeah, well worth the time to watch!

Bonus point for anyone who picked up the Indiana Jones allusion in this episode.
