Preamble I have Jessica Jones issues, hang-ups not actual comic books. It seems like every time I read her in a story she is yelling the same refrain, “What about the baby!” Now I do agree as a parent that Mr. Cage should be sharing in this mission statement and getting a little more serious […]
Guardians of the Galaxy Annual #1 (Comic Files)
Preamble Man, it has been nothing but tense lately. We found out some shocking secrets about Nick Fury in Original Sin. And I cannot even discuss the distrubing turns on Tuesday nights that we were hit with (because it is possible that some agents do not know yet about that thing with that person). So […]
Red She-Hulk: Route 616 (Comic Files)
Preamble I have to admit there is something different about this one, Red She-Hulk: Route 616. First, it is written by Jeff Parker whom Agents Daniel and Ben enjoy over at the distinguished competition with Aquaman. Second, this volume mostly paints S.H.I.E.L.D. as somewhat the bad guys as they hunt the title character. And finally, […]
Original Sin #7 (Comic Files)
Preamble In the last issue of Original Sin, Nick Fury suited up for what could have been the last time. Fury is under attack from every corner as villains and Avengers look to make Fury pay. And Jason Aaron gives us a big clue to who might have killed The Watcher! Situation Report Nick […]

Original Sin #3 (Comic Files)
Preamble So a guy with an eye for a head has the eye! But what special properties does the eye have? And did the Orb kill the Watcher? And will we find out in Original Sin #3? Situation Report The Orb holds the eye and he uses it as a weapon against the heroes searching […]
Original Sin #2 (Comic Files)
Preamble Nick Fury continues his chase for the Watcher’s murderer, which started in Original Sin #1. And the clues are going to take him to some strange places. And as the cover screams we all wonder, who holds the eye? Situation Report Ant-Man, Black Panther and Emma Frost explore a monster graveyard in the […]

Age of Ultron (Comic Files)
Preamble In 2015 we get The Avengers: Age of Ultron. This announcement came out right after the conclusion of the Age of Ultron mini-series written by Brian Michael Bendis. Now clearly this future movie cannot translate the story frame for frame as it is incorporated into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is possible that the […]
