And So It Begins…

Somehow I’m expected to do any work this week and focus on things other than Avengers: Age of Ultron waiting for me on Friday night.

It’s like, I get that you’re paying me to do my job and everything, but come on! This homemade trailer is a bit old, courtesy of CineFix, but this week is probably gonna have a lot of Avengers stuff in it. Apologies in advance.

Is it Friday yet?

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 4/25/15

By this time next week, I will have seen Avengers: Age of Ultron. I can’t wait! The anticipation is nearly overwhelming! What am I supposed to do until then? Read comics?! Are you mad? Well, there were some pretty great comics this week.

Not only do we have the headline-making issue of All-New X-Men where Iceman comes out as gay, but we’ve also got the unlikely buddy comedy of Darth Vader and Jabba the Hutt in the latest issue of Star Wars! This week also brings us, hands down, the funniest comic book I may have ever read in Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #4.

This comic is pure spun gold.

I have no way to explain why I find Squirrel Girl hilarious but Deadpool flat. I guess that’s just the way my brain is wired. But from the cover to the final page, Unbeatable Squirrel Girl is a laugh riot! And it’s Comic Book of the Week!

This week also brings us a double dip of Valiant Comics! That’s always a hoot.

Comic Reviews: All-New X-Men #40, Divinity #3, Ninjak #2, Star Wars #4 and Unbeatable Squirrel Girl #4.

Only Leigh Comments on Marvel Movie Anticipation!

As if we live in a world where all of these Internet stars can email each other and collaborate on projects, Only Leigh and How It Should Have Ended have teamed up for a cute little video about the Five Stages of Watching a Marvel Movie! Or maybe she works for them…I guess I don’t really know. But I do love me some Only Leigh cartoons.

I’m happy to say I avoid Stage 3, but all the others seem pretty accurate.

The Anticipation is Killing Me!

Only 8 more days until Avengers: Age of Ultron!

Thank you, random LEGO video, for helping to tide me over. Every little bit helps. And thanks to Toscano Bricks for making it in the first place.

6 Things I Want to See in Daredevil Season 2

Good news, everybody! Marvel and Netflix have given the green light to a second season of Daredevil, due to hit our screens next year! After the huge success and popularity of the first season, everybody seems ready to jump right into more Daredevil without waiting for the Defenders to come and go. This is great news! There is so much more Daredevil goodness that we need to experience! So many more stories that can be told!

Like how he polishes all those buckles

I’m already well into a second viewing of all 13 episodes. The show is just that much fun. And like any good comic book fan, my mind is racing with where the show can go in Season 2. Some ideas are more obvious — and definitely made my list — and some are just what I’d like to see going forward. So join me after the jump for six things I hope we get in the second season of Daredevil.

And feel free to leave some of your own suggestions in the comments!
