If you have seen the official trailers for this film, I won’t be spoiling anything. If not, be wary. Cards on the table, I have never time traveled and I am not a time travel expert. But what I do know is when time travel seems to make sense (thanks to Back to the Future…
It was the best of franchises, it was the worst of franchises. —The Editor I was in the theater to see Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the ads started, and suddenly there were two trailers featuring Marvel comics characters from two other production companies. Once more, I found myself mourning the fact that Spider-Man (Sony)…
The Wolverine, directed by James Mangold, was, to me, a surprisingly good movie, especially since I stayed after the credits and got a taste of what was to come in the X-Men universe. My hopes have only grown since the release of the new trailer for X-Men: Days of Future Past, which will have director…
The ‘90s marked something of a revival for animated television series based on comic book characters, most notably superheroes.

Social commentary on our own culture runs amok in this premise and has been mined several times in the comics, the animated series, and…
Captain America versus Cyclops. Iron Man against Namor. Hulk fights Colossus. Two of Marvel’s biggest teams, the Avengers and the X-Men, are duking it out for the survival of the Earth in Marvel’s epic crossover event. But which team is in the right, and will the rest of the Earth survive their feud? Hope Summers,…
Most superhero and chosen one type stories all boil down to the same idea of accepting who you are and what you can do and how you can’t change that so man the fuck up and kick some evil (insert your choice of baddie, mutant, demon, whathaveyou) ass instead of whining about it. While…

I’m not one for biology in the sense of genetics, codes, mutations, alleles and chromosomes and everything else which I just refer to as “stuff”. I like my science simpler- like rain shadows and solar power. In any case, the Punnett square was not my friend in sophomore biology. However if there is one…
