Feige also confirmed that Captain America will be a WWII period-piece (as was long rumored), although a more fun and adventurous period-piece a la Raiders of The Lost Ark . Then came some big news: Cap’s plucky sidekick Bucky will be included in the film “in some capacity.” Should I feel good about that? Or should I be feeling a bit of “Jar-Jar” anxiety? I’m not yet sure wh
By now you should know that Thor will be played by Chris Hemsworth (Captain Kirk’s father in the new Star Trek movie); British actor Tom Hiddleston is playing Thor ‘s nemisis, Loki ; and director Kenneth Branagh is rumored to have tapped renowned thespian Brian Blessed to play Thor ‘s father, the almighty Od
You should already know that Joe Johnston is directing . If you don’t recognize the name, Johnston’s directing resume includes family adventure films such as Honey, I Shrunk The Kids and Jumanji ; inspirational films such as October Sky ; action/adventures like Hidalgo and even the upcoming creature-feature reboot, The Wolf Man . According to Feige, that kind of variety is what makes Johnston perfect to helm the kind of all-around adventure film Marvel wants for Captain Ameri
If you ask comic book fans which Spider-Man universe was most criminally neglected in Shattered Dimensions , their answer is almost universally going to be the Marvel Zombies version. A zombie virus has infected the Marvel world, and while it is affecting everybody mutant and human alike, the mutants obviously have certain advantages over the rest of the people and become the dominant zombies.
Doctor Octopus’ entire life is a cycle of ambition and inevitable failure. Otto Octavius’ inventions are objectively revolutionary, but they’re usually undermined by his self-serving personality. Even when Doc Ock tries to reform or reinvent himself , his own hubris pulls him back into self-destruct
Spider-Girl is Spider-Man’s daughter May, all grown up! She originated in a “What If” comic, and then went on to receive her own book which became the longest running female-superhero book ever published by Marvel. This all takes place in an alternate look at the future where Peter has retired and May has taken up his mantle.
Yet, Doc Ock’s plan to cremate Jean Grey before she turns into a zombie backfires in a way nobody expects. Instead of incinerating her body, Octopus’ machine leads Jean to transform into the Phoenix, who may or may not also be a zombie. This version of Marvel Zombies ‘ infection may place Jean Grey in a similar spot as the MCU Marvel Zombies ‘ Scarlet Witch , who claims the title of the Red Queen, leader of all the und
As we reported previously , the Ultimate Spider-Man show is full of humor and the webcrawler himself even breaks the fourth wall (in a style that seems like a cross between Modern Family / Ferris Buelle
Susan Storm (A.K.A. The Invisible Woman) was revealed to actually be a Skrull by Doctor Doom. Is it a coincidence that Skrulls are A) featuring prominently in the cartoon based on the Marvel movies, and B) rumored to be the villains of Joss Whedon’s The Avengers ? We’ll leave that up to you to decid
We already covered the DC Animated panel at NYCC ’11 – which featured DC Universe animated features coming to DVD/Blu-ray – and yesterday, we covered the Marvel Television panel hosted by Vice President of Marvel Television, Jeph L
Cloak’s power is his ability to connect to the “Darkforce Dimension,” as well as to become intangible and to teleport (by vanishing inside of his “cloak,” of course). Dagger’s power is her ability to create “light-based” daggers – which can heal people, if she so chooses – as well as to eliminate people’s addictions, whatever they may
X-Men Origins: Wolverine explores the backstory of the iconic mutant Wolverine, portrayed by Hugh Jackman. Released in 2009, the film delves into Logan’s journey through the Weapon X program as he seeks revenge for his girlfriend’s death while uncovering complex relationships with other muta
If you don’t keep up with comics, let me keep this brief. The Human Torch is dead, The Fantastic Four are changing their name to “The FF” and Spider-Man is joining their ranks. He’s also rocking this new suit that I personally think is pretty sweet.
Technically none of these characters is Spider-Man; at least not anymore. But during the Identity Crisis mini-series, Spider-Man took up each of these four suits as he was accused of murder with a bounty on his head. Wearing his Spidey suit was out, so he tried each of these out. Each one got discarded and eventually made it into the hands of four teenagers who were inspired by him. The series didn’t do very well, but I kind of liked it.
Critics slammed Fantastic Four ’s pacing, tone and lack of fun. Even Trank publicly disowned the final cut. What could have been a bold reimagining turned into a lifeless origin story that alienated viewers and embarrassed Marvel’S Spider-Man 2 DLC|https://spiderman2mix.com/ most enduring t
