    Pandamonium Week 1: Kung Fu Panda

    It’s impossible for me to separate Kung Fu Panda from how I saw it. I attended the first public showing at the Little Rock IMAX theater. It… Read more “Pandamonium Week 1: Kung Fu Panda”

    The Tie-Ins That Bind: Superman Smashes the Klan by Gene Luen Yang and Gurihiru

    I’ll be blunt. The legendary serial Clan of the Fiery Cross isn’t that great. Yes it’s great the story took on the KKK but it’s really thin… Read more “The Tie-Ins That Bind: Superman Smashes the Klan by Gene Luen Yang and Gurihiru”

    The Tie-Ins That Bind: Black Widow: Bad Blood by Serial Box

    The Tie-Ins That Bind: Spider-Man: The Venom Factor Omnibus by Diane Duane

    I don’t often do rereviews. If I read a book, that’s my verdict and I move on. In theory this would be one of those times. I… Read more “The Tie-Ins That Bind: Spider-Man: The Venom Factor Omnibus by Diane Duane”

    The Tie-Ins That Bind: Stranger Things: Darkness on the Edge of Town by Adam Christopher

    Jim Hopper is one of the greatest characters of the last decade. A swaggering, goofy beast of a man with deep pain. David Harbour broke out of… Read more “The Tie-Ins That Bind: Stranger Things: Darkness on the Edge of Town by Adam Christopher”

    The Tie-Ins That Bind: Liberty and Justice For All by Carrie Harris

    2020 has been a year without franchises by and large. Sure that’s completely untrue with two DC live action movies, three DC animated movies, the return of… Read more “The Tie-Ins That Bind: Liberty and Justice For All by Carrie Harris”

    A Look at the Future of the MCU

    Got this as a commission and this is the kind of piece I should have had up last week. I have thoughts on all of this. Y’all… Read more “A Look at the Future of the MCU”

    Review: Marvel’s Avengers (Gameplay movie)

    A question I get asked a lot is why I’m not a gamer. I fit the profile after all. I should be a gamer. But I haven’t… Read more “Review: Marvel’s Avengers (Gameplay movie)”

    The Tie-Ins That Bind: Saved by the Bell: That Old Zack Magic by Beth Cruise

    I really try not to get into the jokey reviews here. If I’m reviewing a Marvel prose novel, it’s something I like and I’m getting into why.… Read more “The Tie-Ins That Bind: Saved by the Bell: That Old Zack Magic by Beth Cruise”
