Take Some Times to Watch a Full Spider-Man Episode!
I’m a longtime fan of Spider-Man cartoons, but this one might be the best ever! Behold 12 minutes of classic awesomeness mixed with modern animation madness!
The Spider-Man Re-Animate Project was created for an arts festival in Canada, comprised of hundreds of different animation styles from different artists. It’s also just a really neat way to enjoy a cartoon and celebrate animation. Plus these old cartoons are always a hoot!

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 10/15/16
I need to stop convincing myself that I’m in good enough shape to go to Comic-Con. Maybe once upon a time I could handle it, but oh boy, last weekend in New York was misery! I had a lot of fun hanging out with my friends, but I was so winded and worn out that I didn’t actually see anything at Comic-Con. The most I can say is that I made it into the building and found a couple of nice chairs.
A two-hour line to get in will do that to you…
Anyway, the experience has not soured me on comics in general, and we’ve got some nice ones this week. Great Lakes Avengers and Mosaic kick off at Marvel, and I’ve decided to try Superwoman again. But the Comic of the Week goes to the final issue of Darth Vader for being its usual badass self!
None can stand in his wa
On the chopping block is the new Supergirl series. After two issues, I just don’t think it’s for me and I won’t be reviewing it going forward. I’m sure Supergirl fans will be happy with it, but I find it kind of mundane.
Comic Reviews: Darth Vader #25, Great Lakes Avengers #1,Lumberjanes/Gotham Academy #5, Mosaic #1, Power Man & Iron Fist #9 and Superwoman #3.
Rebellions Are Built on Hope!
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story has always been in our future, though without any of the excitement of The Force Awakens. But at least the people involved with the movie can make a damn good trailer!
I think this might be my most favorite trailer yet for Rogue One! It reveals a lot of story, boosts some real emotions and better defines out main character. Looks like we could have a winner! And I’m even more excited now about the possibilities of a new Expanded Universe.

How Suicide Squad Should Have Ended, Plus Other Jokes
Aw man, poor How It Should Have Ended guys. They have a couple of really good jokes about Suicide Squad, but their actual alternate ending is a little light. Instead, they go for the tried and true method of falling back on their own running gags.
It also looks like they’re going to start telling a story with their running gags? I dunno, man. The jokes are fine, but I’m here to watch funny alternate endings! I was never particularly a fan of their Batman/Superman diner segments, or tying every single superhero property back to those diner segments. They’re just not as funny. But I bet they’ve got tons of fans, and I suppose they’ve got to protect and emphasize their brand, so here we are.
Still, lots more to make fun of about Suicide Squad…

6 Things I Want to See in the Power Rangers Movie
The first trailer for the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers movie dropped over weekend, giving us our first real look at just what this movie is going to be about. We’ve seen the costumes, the posters and the villain, but now we know that the Power Rangers movie is going heavy on the super serious, angsty teenagers angle. This is a pretty far departure from the original lighthearted, campy TV show, but I say bring it on!
Did we all not notice that they’re all standing around on boxes?
I was a huge fan of the Power Rangers when I was a kid, watching it every afternoon when I got home from school. I didn’t care that the episodes were silly. I didn’t care that every single episode followed the same exact formula. I was hooked! I owned plenty of toys! And that nostalgia is lodged deep in my geeky soul. I don’t care if this movie is probably going to be a train wreck, you better believe I’m going to have my ticket for opening night!
And since I’m such an opinionated fellow, join me after the jump for six things I want from the Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers movie!
