If your first thought was, “I totally forgot Eternals existed,” I don’t blame you. Aside from the appearance of Celestial Island in Captain America: Brave New World, the Eternals have been mostly scrubbed from the MCU existence. And yet, the Eternals linger – mostly in fan fiction and ship culture – and here we are,…
They seem to be going for Hollywood satire with “Wonder Man,” a character not known to many who don’t read the comics.
With the series set to drop on Disney, it’s time for a recap of one of the lesser-known Avengers.
I’ve been a fan of Cheshire since she first appeared back in New Teen Titans Annual 2, and she’s been a recurring villain with a very complicated relationship with one Titan in particular ever since. And Cheetah, in one version or another, has been around since the Golden Age. I also like a good heist story, so I decided to check this series out.
Every December, something strange happens. We say we want to watch something new, scroll for 40 minutes and then somehow end up watching the same old Christmas movie we already know by heart. And honestly? That’s just tradition. Classic Christmas movies are not about surprises. They are about feeling safe, warm and slightly emotional for…
I am going to talk about a comic book series that completely weird. A series that made me stop after finishing an issue, stare at the wall, and say “yepp… what did I just read?” The comic is Saga, written by Brian K. Vaughan and published by Image Comics. First of all, let me say…
Oh man, this one is… damn, this just hits different, you know? The Lost Years is one of those. It’s not like the big, flashy Spider-Man fights or city-destroying villains. Nah, this one is quieter, smaller, but somehow… heavier. It’s like you finally get to see Peter Parker not swinging around, not cracking jokes, but…
For this episode, they veer off in another direction entirely, as none of the main cast even show up while they parody some characters from another company. The Doom Patrol gets a break as the story shifts elsewhere in “Casey Patrol.”
I’m absolutely a fan of the MCU, despite the fact that seems to be getting to be an unpopular stance, so I had some hopes for Fantastic Four: First Steps.
I have some mixed feelings about “My Adventures With Superman,” and I’ve been trying to work out why. I think, for me, it comes down to the cutesy animae art style. Since comics, cartoons, and especially cartoons based on comics are very visual mediums, the look of these is very important, at least to me. That said, the writing and new takes on old characters have been really well done, as was the case in “Adventures of a Normal Man part 2.”
Marvel’s “What If…?” series has been a lot of fun. The glimpses into different realities are always interesting, and Jeffery Wright has done a great job as the Watcher, the series “host” and guide to what could have been. The role has slowly shifted from impartial observer to occasional participant and humorous commentator. He breaks the fourth wall from time to time, and gets in a few of those in “What If Captain Carter Fought the Hydra-Stomper?”
In 1978, Christopher Reeve brought Superman to movie theaters in what many consider the best take on the role. There have been many different takes on the character since then. My personal top three, as of today, are Christopher Reeve, David Corenswet, and Tyler Hoechlin. Superman is back, and acting like the great hero and incredibly caring man many of us adore and prefer. As with all my current movie reviews, I will do my best to remain spoiler free.
Some comedies are just dumb fun and to be honest that’s okay. But this film does something a little different. Sure, it’s filled with crude jokes, inappropriate costumes and ridiculous scenarios, but underneath all that chaos is a movie that’s strangely wholesome. It’s the kind of film that makes you laugh way more than you’d…
As Superman prepares to soar back into theaters, we’re seeing more scenes with some of the supporting characters. Since most of them aren’t the best known, it seemed like a good time to go over who some of them are.
Life has been busy, so I got behind on a few things, including trailers. I recently got a chance to catch up on several of them, so I thought I’d give a run through of what I saw and my reactions. There’s some great looking stuff coming up.
