The Wolverine is one of the upcoming comic book movies I have most been interested in. Where we know Iron Man 3, Thor 2, etc will all be great sequels The Wolverine has had the feeling of it could be as shitty as Origins was. Based off of the trailer, and everything I’ve been reading [...]

Well Disney is about to get even more richer. After purchasing Marvel in 2009 for $4 billion, Disney has scooped up the nerd company with Lucasfilms. Lucasfilm is solely and privately owned by George Lucas who will obviously benefit the greatest from this deal. Like the Marvel deal, this shouldn’t impact daily operations at Lucasfilm [...]

This last week saw much buzz regarding homosexuality in comic books, as Marvel announced the marriage of gay superhero Northstar (scheduled for June 20th in “Astonishing X-Men #51).

Today Capcom announced that Marvel vs Capcom 2 will be making it’s way to all iOS devices on April 25th. I think it’s great that Capcom is releasing the best fighting game ever on new platforms but I’m concerned that MVC2 won’t play as well on touch screen devices as playing even standard old arcade [...]

With Brian Michael Bendis announcing that he will be stepping down from the Avengers family writing duties after 2012, Avengers vs X-Men couldn’t have come at a better time giving Bendis one more big cross-over event with the characters he helped turn into viable comics again 7 years ago. Joining Bendis on creative end of [...]

I got a chance to check out Capt. America this weekend, and it fucking rules (hard). Possibly the best Marvel movie yet, C.A. is a superhero, sci-fi, and war movie all in one rip-roaring, U.S.A.-chanting good time. F Flawlessly continuing The Avengers movie mythology, C.A., blends humor, “get-those-bastards”  action, and a unique, post-steampunk/man-in-tights aesthetic to create a [...]

With the successful release of their first DLC pack based off of the Fantastic Four last month, ZEN Studios is continuing their support with Captain America being released this month. This new table has more of an open/old school feel to it compared to the cramped table that the Fantastic Four got with their [...]

Capcom has released a new animated trailer (no gameplay) for Marvel vs Capcom 3 which gives us little hints to what the story may be. Marvel vs Capcom 1 had an actual story where you were working to stop Onslaught, where MVC2 didn’t really have a story at all. This time around the [...]

I admit, occasionally, I do get sucked in to what ever cross-over event the major publications may be running. Sometimes, they are good…sometimes, they are very, very bad. I was however, particularly intrigued by Marvel’s new “Shadowland” storyline. As a big fan of Daredevil, and the “street level” heroes of the Marvel U (Ghost Rider, Moon [...]

Capcom has released a new cinema trailer for Marvel vs Capcom 3 which pits villains versus heroes. There is no new gameplay footage in this trailer, but we do get the reveal of Tron Bonne as a new character. If you are not familiar with Tron Bonne, she is a character from the [...]

X-Force has been one of my favorite books for the past few years when it was relaunched by Christopher Yost, Craig Kyle and Mike Choi as a wetworks team that Cyclops created to handle the dirty work the X-Men couldn’t afford to be associated with. With Wolverine as the team leader and a supporting [...]
