Movie Review: AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR (Non-Spoiler Review)


Ten years ago, Jon Favreau and Robert Downey Jr. started something that no one could've foreseen becoming what it is today.  Iron Man began a decade-long journey with characters from all over the globe and beyond, which has taken us to places no comic book fan ever thought they'd see on the big screen, and some that just shouldn't have been possible.  But they were.  We saw characters like Captain America, Thor, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Hulk, and the aforementioned Iron Man, most of which were characters that the average person on the street had never heard of, and yet, within four years, they would grow to super stardom as Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige managed to bring them all together for the what many people considered the cinematic event of the decade...The Avengers.

Weekly Comic Pull #11: Mini-Pull Edition


Welcome to this week's Weekly Comic Pull, the show where I run down the latest in my comic pull list. This week, we have an extra small Pull List. Not because of any real issues, time constraints, or anything else, but mainly just because I happen to have a week with a smaller pull than usual. That being said, next week should be as regularly sized as always. Now, without further adieu...

Movie Review: CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR (Review #2)


Marvel's 13th entry in their cinematic universe proves wrong anyone who was thinking that the super hero genre was starting to die or that it had spent its potential. Captain America: Civil War is a soaring triumph of modern mythological storytelling which improves on its source material and delivers a film with a remarkable artistic credit.

Movie Review: CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR



The latest installment from the juggernaut Marvel Money Printer has shown us that you can in fact have superheroes fight against each other, and still give them clear motivations. I hate to make this all about the whole Marvel versus DC debacle, but take note Warner Brothers, because this is how it's done. Scroll away friendly reader, because this review is spoiler-free.
