She-Hulk S01 Ep04 Madisynn-Wong Mid-Credit Scene Was Improvised
She's the unwitting volunteer of magician Donny Blaze, played by Rhys Coiro (Entourage) in the She-Hulk: Attorney at Law episode "Is This Not Real Magic?" Donny is a dropout from the Kamar-Taj, the school of the Mystic Arts, yet somehow allowed to retain what little skills he learned from his time there since no one[...]
She-Hulk Team on Wong & Abomination's "Shang-Chi" Throwdown Backstory
If there was one major loose thread in 2021's Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, it's why Wong (Benedict Wong) and Emil Blonsky, aka Abomination (Tim Roth), were in an underground fighting cage duking it out before shaking hands and escaped in Wong's portal She-Hulk: Attorney at Law finally placed proper context to[...]

Doctor Strange #389 cover by Mike del Mundo
That said, it does give Strange something to do while Wong and Ghost Rider do all the plot relevant stuff in Damnation and Johnny Blaze: Ghost Rider. I will almost never complain about an excuse to have Dormammu and Shuma-Gorath in a story The stakes never feel too high, admittedly Dormammu claims to be weak, and[...]
Wong and the Midnight Sons make their final stand against the hordes of Hell and the demonically-possessed Avengers. Before long, Mephisto himself arrives to gloat over having killed Johnny Blaze. However, Mephisto does not know that the Ghost Rider has become the king of Hell, and the tides may soon turn in favor of Wong. Doctor Strange: Damnation ends better than it began. While some of the deliberate lack of repentance on the part of Stephen Strange and the lack of focus on the members of the Midnight Sons that aren’t Wong and Strange does bother me, this final installment didn’t really get on my nerves as much as the first. Don’t get me wrong, this issue still has a myriad of problems that keep it from being required reading. This story was stretched to breaking point, and a good portion of what matters happened in the Ghost Rider issue. This book is a protracted third act. As far as plot-relevance goes, Blade, Doctor Voodoo, Bloodstone, Man-Thing, Scarlet Spider, Moon Knight, and Iron Fist may as well not be here. Even in their own tie-ins, Iron Fist and Scarlet Spider don’t really do anything important to the story. The follow-up story promises more with the Midnight Sons though, and that will hopefully come to something. Rod Reis’ artwork is a welcome presence in this book. His style lends itself to the ethereal and surreal nature of this setting and plot. The color gradience adds a unique atmosphere and generally looks quite good. Szymon Kudranski and Dan Brown handle the epilogue with the Midnight Sons and Doc Strange. The more realistic aesthetic does contrast Reis’ work in an odd manner, but it looks good too. Doctor Strange: Damnation #4 is a decent enough read. If you liked the rest of the story, you’ll like this one too. The fact that the story at least acknowledges that Strange’s idea was terrible from the start and ties it to personal problems helps a lot. Reis, Kudranksi, and Brown provide good visuals. Feel free to check it out.

Avengers: Infinity War imax poster
Most importantly (apparently) to fans, there is still no Hawkeye to be seen. While there is no Hawkeye anywhere to be found, I am super happy that characters like Wong, Shuri, Okoye, and Nebula are getting their due All of them have been strong players in the Marvel saga and deserve their shot in the spotlight[...]
