RPM #12 "BLITZ": Back to Black

Usually eps like these are an excuse to burn through sentai battle footage. Instead, RPM just did all its own stuff. Not a bad episode at all -- just different than what we've had.

I had the sense this episode was re-cut after Eddie left, which explains more morphed fights than usual and Judd Lynn also being credited for EP. I expect eps like these anyway, so it wasn't a big deal (Clearly it's what "ROBOTPALOOZA" should've been).

Gotta say, I really liked the start of the episode, getting back to Dillon's haunting past with a dream. Nice use of sound effects and Kelson returning to PR to voice Sat-Bot. Although Dr. K is a bitch for trying to shut down Series Black twice, it was very interesting how Dillon over-rode it and a virus in him activated.

Will Dillon go totally evil and join Venjix' army? Will Dr. K ever find a cure? Can't wait to see how this develops...
