The Middleman is a show about a badass young artist (Wendy Watson, as played by Natalie Morales) who gets recruited by the titular hero The Middleman (played by Matt Keeslar) to help him in the fight against comic book evil such as zombie fish, vampire puppets and evil boy bands.

The show, based on the graphic novels by writer Javier Grillo-Marxuach and artist Les McClaine, aired for 12 episodes on ABC Family in 2008 and was given a comic book series finale in 2009. The Middleman was clever, geeky and action-packed, full of pop-culture references and witty dialogue. This is a fan-run fandom blog--feel free to ask questions or submit content!

Wendy Watson not only is that a Clandestine Industries shirt, that is a Clandestine Industries shirt that I own.

And it’s featured in the episode The Boy-Band Superfan Interrogation.

Cute, The Middleman. Very cute.

i’ve figured out their secret

one direction is a group of five exiled alien dictators who are using their adopted stylish accents and girl’s screams to power a device that will teleport them them to their home planet to once again rule with an evil iron fist.

Never forget when I did a half-decent Middleman costume for Halloween. A good memory.

This is such a smooth blending of crossovers. She’s got Ida and the Middleman time stamps down perfectly, the little in universe references are perfect, Univille’s citizens get a fun moment to shine, the Wendy/Lacey is adorable and perfect, and the hints of Claudia/Leena are great. The case is fun, as is the fic overall. Highly, highly recommended.

How this show ever got made and put on ABC Family in the first place I will never, ever know.

The Middleman, upon seeing Wendy hooking up with Tyler, covers the dummy’s eyes.

That’s just precious.
