Happy Boxing Day, everyone! I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas this year. I thought I’d take a break from the movie reporting to talk about the much-discussed issue of The Amazing Spider-Man that hits the shelves today. So there’s been lots of outcry about the newest issue of the …
Hello, comic book fans! I’ve once again returned on this Wednesday to share with you some comic book knowledge. Continuing with my last two posts about movie adaptations of comic books, I want to talk about some of the announcements going on with the sequel to The Amazing Spider-Man. Some …
Happy Wednesday, everyone! It’s time for a Spider-Men update. As most of you know, I’m a devoted fan of Spider-Man and when I heard that there was going to be a crossover between the normal Earth-616 Peter Parker and the Ultimate universe’s Miles Morales, I jumped in the air. This …
Good Wednesday, everyone! A brand new batch of comics have been released today including some Marvel favorites such as Amazing Spider-Man and Ultimate Comics Ultimate. One of the newer ones to come out is entitled Spider-Men #2 and the series has caused quite some excitement within the Marvel fanbase. This …
Wizard Victor here, everyone! Murray asked me to fill in for this week and while thinking of what to write, I realized that I haven’t read a lot of comics recently. I thought I’d take this moment to share some of my feelings involving the new Amazing Spider-Man movie! A …
Greetings! Last week DC brought us the tales of Prep and Landing’s adventures in the Marvelverse. Since it’s still a holiday time, I thought I’d bring out the other festive Marvel outing: The Marvel Holiday Specials. Usually occurring every year, this time it’s been especially accessible, thanks to the Marvel …
Greetings readers! Welcome to this week’s Watcher Wednesday! This week’s Watcher Wednesday is very special to me. As you have seen this week (and will tomorrow as well, hint hint), Prep and Landing is one of my newest (in the past few years) favorite Christmas traditions. You can imagine my …
It is less than two weeks until Halloween, and we’re still counting down the days with a look at Marvel Comics’ collection of costumes. You’ll want to come read next week when Wizard Victor concludes the series with a very Halloween appropriate look at costumes (I’m excited about it myself). …
This October, in anticipation of Halloween, Watcher Wednesday is looking at the costumes of the Marvel universe. Wizard Victor kicked it off with looking at the armor of Iron Man. This week is about the fashionable insect of Marvel Comics: The amazing Spider-Man….well his costumes, at least. For the most …
Last week, Murray showed us some different Marvel universes with the premise of “What If…?” Those are are deviations from key points in Marvel history and show us what would have happened if another path was chosen. The Ultimate Universe, however, is a completely separate reality where everything is reimagined …
Last week, DC did a great job at introducing a couple of alternate universe Marvel comics. This week, I’d like to explore what makes Marvel great in terms of how they explore alternate universes. Instead of rewriting origins or reboot an entire franchise, Marvel Comics has elected to make a …
It was Marvel’s inaugural D23 Expo, and to sum it up they are a great fit for the Disney family. The first experience with the baby to the Disney group was at the Walt Disney Studios presentation. Marvel Studios went last, but the crowd still went wild! The only movie …
Last week Victor did an incredible job at recounting the early Avengers team roster and origins. But, the Avengers are still going and there is a modern incarnation of the team. This team looks somewhat different from what will be in the movies, and even from the previous incarnations. If …
Hi True Believers! (a common greeting from Stan Lee, one of the founders of Marvel Comics) Today is the first day of a new blog showcasing the Marvel Comics side of Disney. I happen to be a big Disney fan and longtime comics collector. So, when Disney bought Marvel it …
