Spider-Man's had some baffling bad handling over the years for such a prominent character. I had just gotten interested in the character again a coupe years ago, only to find that what with the One More Day controversy and all that, nothing but the old reprints actually appealed to me. Brand New...

Why's he got it buttoned like that? Isn't it more traditional to do the middle button if one only wants one done up? He looks like he didn't get dressed correctly and will feel like a complete idiot once he gets to the local Stage Magician's Office.

Two thoughts: One, It's cool that Ultron is gonna be kicking around in the movies even if we were expecting Thanos, apparently they'll cut out Ant-Man/Giant Man/Hank Pym's involvement, which as a fan of the character, sucks for me. I wonder if they're gonna have Ultron be created by Iron...

I really want to see Luke Cage, and I'd absolutely kill to see him and Iron Fist in a Heroes For Hire show, so I wouldn't be upset if it was him. At this point though I feel like Marvel would probably want to use Cage in a movie though, in order to capitalize on the publicity that would come...

16,410, but I used Google to reference road signs and flags, so I may have kind of cheated.

I really hope Bob's wrong about Marvel maybe introducing Marvel/Miracleman in Age of Ultron. See, Marveleman was really only notable for Alan Moore's reworking of him, before that he was just a generic,ripoff of Captain Marvel and by extension Superman. The Eclipse Comics stuff though, put him...

Yeah, I'm very, very disappointed in the comic book community on this one. Some of the sites that I frequent have talked about this stuff, but for the most part actual comic news sites and a lot of bloggers have ignored this incredibly messed up direction. I mean, as I've said, I pretty sure Dan...

Full disclosure, I haven't read the issue yet, but it's because I have no interest in reading this new direction. I do read comics and was actually hoping to use the whole Superior Spider-Man relaunch to finally start reading a Spidey ongoing, but I have no interest now that I know what...

Wilson Fisk, the Kingpin, from Marvel Comics. He irritates the fuck out of me. First of all, he shouldn't really be around, the Marvel universe is crawling with superheroes who are able to eat his fat ass for breakfast, hell, he's even been dethroned by them on a few occasions. But he just keeps...

I was actually looking kind of looking forward to this when it was first getting geared up to be released, but now, after the delay, and knowing that it was done to give Channing Tatum a larger role, I'm not nearly as excited for the movie. Honestly, Tatum's the dealbreaker for me, the whole...

The DCAU was awesome. Every time I think about it though I get mad at DC for being unable to bring that kind of kid friendly cross-generational appeal to the comics, and how they're instead seemingly content to cater to an ever dwindling audience.

I'm really looking forward to Looper, it looks like smart, understated sci-fi that focuses on the cool stuff, rather than focusing solely on character drama, which is a mistake as far as sci-fi goes. Also, like the rest of movie going audiences I'm really quite interested to see how Joseph...

That sounds.... Pretty reasonable actually. Then again, with the way TV is rapidly losing ground to on-demand services, taking cues from the former might not be the best idea.

Actually I'm pretty sure he is, something about shadowy government types using nanobots or something to rejigger Terry's dad's reproductive DNA to be identical to Bruce Wayne's (really) in an attempt to create a new Batman. So Terry is kinda Bruce's son biologically. God that was a stupid...

I've actually been hesitant to see this because of stuff like Bob's opening remarks. From the very first trailers I saw (which were out like, six monthes ago, which is a little weird) I got the impression that this movie was really, really, really geared towards people like Bob. Not that I don't...
