The League of Villains made a great first impression on all of the fans of My Hero Academia. Their first appearance in the JSA was quite a badass entrance. While our heroes did prevail, it did show that there are as many villains as heroes in this world. Funko announced a whole variety of My […]

Opening an issue with a major change in continuity, revealing true origins of a character previously thought or as one thing, now revealed as another, was most famously used by Alan Moore, Steve Bissette and Rick Veitch in Swamp Thing #21, Anatomy Lesson – though actually their second issue together. Metal Men #1, out this […]

While the cast and crew of AMC‘s The Walking Dead roll along with their deep-dive production-wise on the tenth season, life in the franchise’s universe has become a lot like the NFL: neither have off-seasons anymore.

Fans of the old Charmed series who never felt “right” giving The CW‘s take a fair shake should’ve been thrilled with the finale to the show’s first season. Without going into heavy “spoiler territory,” let’s just say it looks like they won’t have to worry about Macy (Madeleine Mantock), Mel (Melonie Diaz), Maggie (Sarah Jeffery), […]

The Alien Queen scene from the 1986 sci-fi classic Aliens, what is terrifying as a kid. Alien’s movie really helped improve the film’s mythos for these extra-terrestrials. Just like the way Predator 2 showed us a vast variety of Predators at the end of the film. Showing that there is an Alien Queen really amped up the Xenomorph […]

This January’s Justice League #39 will apparently be the final issue written by superstar writer and handsome devil Scott Snyder, DC’s January solicitations revealed.

Australian developer Halfbrick Studios is back after a three-year dormancy. The studio brought us some of the most addictive titles mobile gamers have ever known.

With this week’s episode of ABC‘s Modern Family Season 11, we are almost back on track with one of our favorite shows… almost. “Pool Party” pretty much followed 3-4 storylines, and while the outing was a vast improvement on earlier in the season  – there’s still one ongoing problem that continues to annoy me with […]

This week’s episode of Food Network‘s Halloween Wars was definitely an improvement from last week. Although the “Small Scare” challenge during “The Swarm” was uneventful, the contestants brought their serious “A-Game” in the “Spine Chiller” round. Host Jonathan Bennett (with judges Shinmin Li and Todd Tucker and guest judge Harley Quinn Smith) were impressed by […]

Ghostbusters was one of those great ideas to come out of the prime of the 90s. Speaking of the 80s and “prime” it makes me think of Optimus Prime another 80s classic, Transformers. Now you know what would really make a great and kick-ass collectible a crossover figure. Well, look no further as we are getting the […]

Looks like someone is getting a renumbering. No Wonder Woman #1000 to match Action Comcis #1000 and Detective Comics #1000 but #750 will do for now… in the same format as both those previous books.

It’s not that fans of the upcoming The Witcher series adaptation from Netflix haven’t been appreciative of what they gotten so far from the streaming service, with some key art, first-look images, and even a teaser that have them feeling (cautiously) optimistic for Henry Cavill‘s (Justice League) run as Geralt. But lets be honest – […]

Capcom is looking into bringing back some classics from its catalogue. If you’ve been missing IPs like Dino Crisis or Darkstalkers over the years, they might be coming back.

As Mitch Gerads returns to Batman #82, he took the opportunity to reveal what was once planned by him and Tom King, but that never actually happened.

Max Bemis has a writer’s commentary on the launch of Black Terror #1 from Dynamite Entertainment. He writes, PAGE 1-2 Bob seems like a genuinely nice guy, but as a Bipolar individual, I’ve had some gnarly interactions with pharmacists. I’ve had them deny me my sanity-preserving medicine just because they didn’t like the anxiousness in […]

I’ve been warning you all that I’d be crying a lot this season.

It’s run talking about Tom King‘s Batman online, especially with people who think there just hasn’t been enough Bane in City of Bane. I would argue the title suggests it’s about the city rather than about Bane, his effect on the place and the way it workd now – although setting two issues on a […]

Marvel fans are mad at Martin Scorsese right now for saying the Marvel movies weren’t Cinema but more like a theme park. I’m not interested in arguing the pros and cons of that argument.
