6 Pop Culture Resolutions for 2014

I may as well say that my New Year’s resolutions for 2014 are to lose weight and save money, but I’ve kind of been making those same resolutions for the past 30 years, and they haven’t come true yet! So how about we veer wildly off course and talk about something much more fun: pop culture!

No, I’m not resolving to play fewer video games or watch less TV. Don’t be crazy.

Though I’m totally gonna lose weight and save money. Totally.

Instead, I’ve whipped up a list of 6 pop culture things I want to see in 2014. We already know what movies, TV shows and more are coming out, and I resolve to drown myself in all of them. But we don’t know how good or bad they’re going to be, or what surprises might be in store. So let’s get our hopeful wishing hats on, and predict the 6 pop culture resolutions we want to see in 2014!

And yes, I realize these are more like ‘wishes’ than ‘resolutions’, but New Year is all about the resolutions. Cut me some slack, I had a cold this week. Join me after the jump!

A Marvel Wedding? I Mostly Just Want the Full Picture as a Poster

As Marvel Comics is wont to do these days, they sent out a quickie teaser image to Newarama promising an upcoming storyline, this one being a wedding in April. Who’s getting married? Who knows! But what’s clear is that somebody has drawn an amazing Where’s Waldo-esque picture of Marvel superheroes, and they’ve broken it into puzzle pieces for this teaser.

Beta Ray Bill and Stingray! Amazing!

I have no clue which Marvel characters might be getting married, but man oh man, I want that poster!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 12/28/13

Christmas has come and gone, and both major comic book publishers decided to go really light this week. What’s up with that? Do they think we comic book geeks aren’t going to buy our favorite books just because New Comic Book Day falls on a holiday? For shame! But hey, at least my wallet isn’t complaining.

Even though this week saw only a few books released, they are some big ones. Origin II continues the early years of Wolverine, and Forever Evil and Justice League continue the whole Forever Evil foofarah. I hope it’s going somewhere good. Comic Book of the Week goes to Avengers #24! Jonathan Hickman actually delivers a comic I really enjoyed. I only wish his entire run had been this good.

Comic Reviews: Avengers #24, Forever Evil #4, Justice League #26 and Origin II #1.
