Walt

Recently I met Chris Claremont from Marvel fame at the Portland Comic Con from Wizard World then a week later at the Emerald City Comic Con in Seattle.

Avengers Vs X-Men 12 Review

Travis

Avengers Vs. X-men.  Wow, I mean really WOW!!!  I have read comments on blogs where people are disappointed with the story line… I do not understand.  This is one of the finest Crossover stories in Marvel in the last 10 years and it rectifies some serious wrongs done previously in the Marvel universe, which caused me to quit reading comics for a while.  It is extremely hard to please everyone all the time, so I will give the naysayers their moment and opinion. “3…2…1” Okay, times up.  The precision and…

Marvel has chose to go in a different direction with the school he started and the ideal of mutant and human getting along for the…
