Squirrel Girl Has Been Cast!
Attention, attention, all ye geeks everywhere! Marvel has cast Squirrel Girl for their extended Cinematic Universe! She’s gonna appear on a New Warriors TV show on Freeform, but let’s not hold that against her!
Squirrel Girl will be played by actor Milana Vayntrub. I have no idea who that is.
Vayntrub has starred in a ton of stuff, according to IMDB. Most recently, she was in This Is Us, which I haven’t seen. But I bet I’ve seen her on College Humor!
So bully on her. Squirrel Girl is awesome and I hope the show can do her justice.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, all the other roles have been cast as well. There’s Derek Theler as Mister Immortal, Jeremy Tardy as Night Thrasher, Callum Worthy as Speedball, Matthew Moy as Microbe and Kate Comer as Debrii. Good on them!
The show will last 10 episodes and is about a bunch of young people coping with young people life and super-powers. Here’s hoping it’s a good show!

More Star Wars Cartoon Coolness
Forces of Destiny has been putting out of a bunch of episodes, and they make good fodder for a lazy, uninteresting Monday! Here’s one that stars Leia, Sabine and IG-88!
Good, solid Star Wars action. I’m definitely digging these little cartoon shorts. Check out their Youtube channel because there’s a bunch more!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 7/8/17
Oh man oh man! Spider-Man: Homecoming! I’m writing this opening paragraph before seeing Spider-Man: Homecoming and I don’t have time to update it with my thoughts on the film. I’m hoping I liked the movie! And I hope you henchies like it too!
Kind of a light week on comics this week, but it’s giving me time to catch up on some titles where I fell behind. So check out new reviews for Iron Fist and Unstoppable Wasp! The latter of which wins Comic Book of the Week for a really nice issue focusing on the original Wasp, Janet Van Dyne!
Wasp vs. Whirlwind! Classic!
I think this is the most I’ve ever cared about Janet Van Dyne. Not to say she’s not a great character, she’s just never been one of my beloved characters. But this issue does a great job with her and Nadia!
Comic Reviews: Batman #26, Harley Quinn #23, Hawkeye #8, Iron Fist #5 and Unstoppable Wasp #7.
Prepare For the Spider-Man Reboot!
I think Only Leigh has been fully hired by the How It Should Have Ended people, which is kind of disappointing. On the one hand, I’m glad she’s getting solid work. On the other hand, she only seems to make these 5 Stages videos. I need more original Only Leigh content in my life!
I want more Bella & Tina are Time Travelers! I want more fangirls! But I also want Leigh to be successful. This is a tough internet road to walk down.

Honestly, I Loved the Amazing Spider-Man Movies
I know everybody hates them quite a bit, but I loved both Amazing Spider-Man movies. I loved the energy, I loved Andrew Garfield, I liked the villains, I loved Gwen Stacy, and I never liked Tobey Maguire as either Spider-Man or Peter Parker.
Fortunately, we all get to go see Spider-Man: Homecoming this weekend! I’m very excited. But hey, Honest Trailers is always reliable for comedy.
