Heroes Reborn is the title of the reboot of the show Heroes. Scheduled to be a 13-episode event series, the reboot will air in 2015. Original series creator Tim Kring is on board to run the show. It is expected that Heroes Reborn will be a stand-alone story; no characters have been announced, though NBC Entertainment President Jennifer Salke said, “we won’t rule out the possibility of some of the show’s original cast members popping back in.” A webseries, set to air before Heroes Reborn is televised, will introduce new…

“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…

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…

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…

DC Comics in 1938, with Action Comics #1, launched the original comic book super hero universe. They introduced Superman, the Man of Steel, the Last Son of Krypton, the Man of Tomorrow.

Over the course of the next fifty years, the DCU expanded exponentially and one world was no…

Spider-Verse has already gotten a great deal of mileage out of cramming as many versions of Spider-Man onto the page as possible and watching the chaos that unfolds as a result. There’s plenty more of that in this third chapter. However, more compelling than Spider-mania is the long-awaited confrontation between Peter Parker and the man who stole his body and calls himself the Superior Spider-Man. That confrontation is the highlight of another memorable chapter in the Spider-Verse saga. Dan Slott picks up from the chaos of issue #10 as multiple…

This past Tuesday afternoon Spider-Man writer Dan Slott tweeted this warning to Marvel readers: “Set your watch. Your next Spider-Man related freak out is on the way.” Slott wasn’t just whistling Dixie. Marvel has premiered their latest “Summer 2015” teaser (which we’re still convinced are all related to Secret Wars) and it’s another callback to an iconic and now controversial moment in Spider-Man history – his wedding to Mary Jane Watson in 1987’s Amazing Spider-Man Annual #21, undone in 2007’s One More Day storyline … but with a twist.

In his television debut, DC Comics’ John Constantine took on demons and angels, but the sardonic Brit occult detective faced an opponent he’s yet to match wits against in comics: baseball.

Variety reports that the 10 pm Friday night debut of the “Constantine” pilot held on to 90% of the audience that tuned into the fourth-season premiere of…
