Amazing Spider-Man 14 Review

Media Release

As a whole, Spider-verse may be Marvel’s best attempt at an event comic in years. The core premise and conflict engrossing. the way it celebrates Spider-Man’s long, colorful history is delightful. Even the tie-ins tend to be well-crafted and very relevant to the core storyline. That said, there have been flaws with the approach to Spider-verse, and those flaws threaten to derail the whole experience in this final issue. Amazing Spider-Man #14 is almost entirely consumed by the final battle between the surviving Spiders and the Inheritors. Everyone’s path finally…

Needless to say, spoilers below.

moviemaniacsDE Posts Daredevil Teaser Trailer On YouTube

Travis

“Daredevil” is the first of five upcoming Marvel Studios series coming to netflix.com. I have always been a Daredevil comic fan and not so much a fan of the 2003 Daredevil theatrical release.   I never blamed Ben Affleck for ruining Daredevil I have always blamed 20th Century Fox and their need to meddle, which was discussed by Mark Steven Johnson on the Daredevil Directors Cut and in my humble opinion a far superior film. Anyway back to the trailer I love what this trailer shows.  I love the costume which appears…

Check Out the Fantastic 4 Teaser Trailer

Travis

I am having a hard time hating this movie, that being said the trailer reminds me of the storyline of the Ultimate Fantastic 4 storyline, which is a great story and a great retelling of the fantastic 4 origin. I am huge Fantastic 4 and a Marvel studios fan since Iron Man, which I still believe is the perfect superhero movie and I am a consistent 20th Century Fox detractor. Why a Fox detractor? They, like Sony, do not get that film making is art and not cookie cutter crap…

Tom Cavanagh Talks Playing the Reverse-Flash, “Finally”

Walt

SPOILER WARNING: This article contains potential spoilers for future installments of “The Flash.” Since the very first episode of “The Flash,” it’s been clear that Dr. Harrison Wells — played by Tom Cavanagh — had much more going on than just being the head of S.T.A.R. Labs. For starters, it was quickly revealed he wasn’t actually disabled as a result of the particle accelerator explosion, as he stands up out of his wheelchair with ease at the end of the pilot. Oh, and also he was in possession of a…
