Avengers vs X-men one fans outlook…

Okay, I’ve been reading online and looking at all the hype and pictures for this upcoming event, and one thing comes to mind for me … TO COOL!!! IGN has several promotional pictures with possible fights to watch for. I know it hasn’t hit yet, and that its company (Marvel) has made some pretty stupid [...]

Avengers Assembled…

Well several films have brought together a team of heroes that all us comic geek and superhero lovers know so well. Are you ready for this as much as I am? So Marvel really did these right in my opinion.  Not only did they give each of the characters in this team movie their own [...]

Disney/Fox set to Punish us again…

Blaster reports that Disney and Fox are teaming up to try and bring us a television series based on the Punisher from Marvel Comics.  There have been three prior movies made about this character and none have hit the mark with audiences really. The first one was ‘The Punisher’ in 1998 staring Dolph Lundgren and [...]

Captain America #1

Well as I expected, Ed Brubaker and Steve McNiven did a fine job of restarting Captain America.  I’ve been waiting a long time for Steve to get back into the red white and blue, and I knew, (as many others speculated) way back when they announced the Captain America movie, that Steve’s sabbatical was almost [...]

Captain Gimmick strikes again!!!

Publishers all over do marketing. Advertising with slick little gimmicks that are intended to push sales up. But the comic book companies have for a very long time (at least as long as I’ve been collecting) been doing some pretty underhanded schemes. Looking back on the last twenty some odd year’s worth of books, they [...]

Super-Games …

You know there are a lot of games out there based on Superheroes.  Games that create their own heroes like Megaman, and games about heroes we know from the various publishers and movies that have come out.  There are a couple of upcoming games that I am really looking forward to and I don’t even [...]

The Hollywood Comic to Movie Method

For many years we dealt with knowing the best stories and heroes were in comics and that they deserved movies made about them, but the powers that be said, “That’ll never sell in the box office.” Now we have a new problem, they have found the characters that we old school comic book geeks know [...]

Comic Book Collecting – Part 3

It’s been a long while since I posted about anything at all, but this one has been back burnered for far to long… So okay now, I’ve dug around in some old boxes and lo’ and behold have found a 1st issue print of ‘Captain Spectacular and the Stupendous Force!’  Wow, it has passed all [...]

From colored paper to silver screen.

From colored paper to silver screen.

So for years comic book collectors have lamented that their favorite characters from comics would make great live action movies. It seems as of recent years that dream has made it into our reality for many. Not that there weren’t lots of movies before now that came from comics, just that now there are more… [...]

Green Hornet with tude, reviewed…

Well the trailer is out and up, and it looks good so far to me.  I know there will be purist out there that will scoff and boycott and what not, but personally, I think if they are going to do this one, it needs a face lift.  The trailer looks great.  Wish Bruce Lee [...]
