Preamble How does one prepare for the best television program of Fall 2013, well you start at the beginning of course. To do this I picked up a copy of Marvel Masterworks Presents The Avengers. There is no S.H.I.E.L.D., no agents, and younger or older Nick Fury. But it does show us a first glimpse […]
Wolverine #3 (Comic Files)
Preamble Wolverine #3 you have my attention. With a cover sporting Wolverine and Nick Fury standing back to back smirking, this issue was a must have for me. As our heroes dive into part three of “Hunting Season” you have the feeling that something truly fun is going to happen. Situation Report As the […]
Thanos Rising #2 (Comic Files)
Preamble The first observation that a reader of Thanos Rising #2 will likely have is that this series has quickly taken a dark turn. Thanos is no longer the friendly likable boy that we were introduced to in issue #1. Instead now he has taken his first steps to being the monster that the Avengers […]
Iron Man: Believe (Comic Files)
Preamble Iron Man: Believe written by Kieron Gillen and illustrated by Greg Land collects the first five issues of the renumbered Iron Man under the NOW! relaunch. Fans will likely be interested in how this restart builds on the storyline of the former Invincible Iron Man series and the Marvel Cinematic Universe. As someone who […]
Avengers Assemble “Avengers Protocol” (Video Files)
Preamble It is a long time before Avengers 2 but there is still plenty of toys to sell! In November 2012, Marvel wrapped up The Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes. But we cannot be long without animated MCU heroes. Recently Disney XD premiered their new Avenger title, Marvel’s Avengers Assemble, in a special one hour premier […]
“How It Should Have Ended” Marvel Editions
It is quite possible that the How It Should Have Ended animated videos are the perfect loving geek exploration of plot holes. No, it’s not “quite possible.” It just plain is. (Although, for some reason, Incredible Hulk and Iron Man 2 didn’t merit a HISHE. Hmm.) Here’s a collection of the HISHE Marvel themed videos, […]
Avengers vs. Thanos (Comic Files)
Preamble To provide a minor spoiler, I was saddened that the Iron Man 3 did not provide an overt reference to the villain Thanos. Since we were teased that Thanos was involved in the events of The Avengers I have assumed that he would return to the Avenger Initiative sometime in the near future. In […]
Thanos Rising #1 (Comic Files)
Preamble 2013’s Thanos Rising limited series provides the origin of this super villain. Though there are no Avengers and no S.H.I.E.L.D. agents as the series opens, it provides a glimpse into the background of a villain that has already pulled the strings in launching the Battle of New York in The Avengers. And clearly from […]
Battle Scars (Comic Files)
Preamble Some moments get a lot of hype. In 2012, Peter Parker “died” within the main Marvel universe. In early 2013 Damian Wayne the current Robin in the DC universe was killed. I apologize if I spoiled something for you, but both of these story arcs led to major news coverage in the mainstream […]
Secret Avengers #1 (Comic Files)
Preamble Marvel and Disney have an interesting situation on their hands. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is widely popular, and in 2008, Samuel L. Jackson began to firmly establish himself as Nick Fury in Iron Man. Anyone who has only been exposed to this second level Marvel character, on the big screen, can only visualize Fury […]
