The Wasp is Definitely Coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
Normally I try to stay on top of cool casting announcements in all the best superhero TV shows and movies, but this one is trickier. If you haven’t seen Ant-Man yet, I don’t want to spoil anything. But at the same time, this is a pretty big deal. Anytime Marvel pushes a female superhero in their movies needs to be a big deal now.
She was a founding Avenger, gosh darn it!
So I’m going to save all the key information until after the jump. Just know that Marvel Studios Grand Master, Kevin Feige, has confirmed that the Wasp will appear somewhere in Phase 3. She won’t show up with Ant-Man in next year’s Captain America: Civil War. But there are going to be a bunch of Phase 3 films, including the two-part Infinity War. So she’ll likely debut in one of those.
Join me after the jump for the lowdown on the Wasp and a look at her costume! SPOILERS for Ant-Man — which, for the record, was a really good movie!
I’ve Seen Better Batman vs. Superman Battles
It seems that Batman fighting Superman is all the rage now, and the Internet isn’t about to deal with that lying down.
Not quite an epic rap battle of history, but I’ll take it! Quality animation, stylish rhymes, hip beats…and the like. I dunno. I’m hardly a good judge of a rap battle. But major kudos to Top Trending for making this happen!

This is Probably the Ideal Way to Start a Glorious Day!
I present to you, courtesy of the Internet, Mad Max: Fury Road in the style of Yakety Sax! And not just regular Yakety Sax, but heavy metal Yakety Sax!
Now just go ahead and let that stick in your brains for the rest of the day! You’ll be all set!
Unfortunately, the Mad Max: Fury Road DVD doesn’t come out until October! That’s forever from now! Ugh. Ah well, thanks to 6S Films for making this little diddy.

Hench-Sized Comic Book Reviews – 7/25/15
Only one week until Boston Comic-Con! That’s my first comic-con of the season, where I’ll be shaking hands and kissing babies in the name of Gamer Girl & Vixen! Anybody else going? I could buy you a hot dog!
As for comics this week, we’ve got some good ones! Cyborg #1 makes its big debut at DC comics, though it’s about four years late. Still, it looks like a good start, though I would have liked more. I also checked out the first issue of Kate Leth’s Power Up and was equally wishing she’d gone just a bit further in her debut issue. Alas.
As for really good comics, we’ve got new issues of Spider-Woman and We Are Robin, both of which are sizzling. And the new issue of Uncanny X-Men is a Goldballs spotlight issue! I’m beside myself with glee.
Comic Book of the Week, however, goes to Grayson #10 for its downright gorgeous artwork and fun style!
Why do we all not live there?
Artist Mikel Janin is going place! Heck, I’m not even sure why DC is keeping him on Grayson when he could be drawing Wonder Woman, Superman or anything else!
Comic Reviews: Cyborg #1, Grayson #10, Power Up #1, Prez #2, Spider-Woman #9, Uncanny X-Men #35 and We Are Robin #2.
Only Leigh Knows the Dark Truth About Marvel Movies
Only Leigh remains the best. And only she seems to understand!
I don’t know why everybody’s getting burnt out about superhero movies. They’re all still awesome films and very entertaining. There are always going to be more movies, why not let them get made by people who clearly know what they’re doing and make good movies?
