How do you like the Shield? It used to be on my short list.

It feels like a genuine Archie comic more than anything else, but an Archie comic where main characters sometimes are gutted and have their heads ripped off. A SICK DELIGHT! I mean, Archie & the gang are about as effective at fighting against an interplanetary death-alien as you'd imagine.
The writer, Alex de Campi, knows her Archie and knows her Predator.

well apparently it does support external DVD drives that have M-Disc support, which mine does. So basically, if/when the Xfinity app comes out then I'll be set.
Seriously though, I should prob start a Shield thread haha.
