Consider this a capital “R” rumor for the time being, but it is a juicy one; we already know that Sony and Marvel Studios are circling several young actors for the role of Spider-Man for the upcoming reboot, with Ender’s Game star Asa Butterfield apparently at the very top of that list. But now we’ve…
Time-traveling rogue Rip Hunter must assemble a disparate group of both heroes and villains to confront an unstoppable threat to the planet…and to time itself.

Everyone’s favorite superhero team is back again! They’re all here — there’s the tech genius with a metal suit, the hyper-accurate archer dude, and the mysterious backflipping assassin woman. That’s right, it’s the heroes from DC Comics’ upcoming Legends of Tomorrow, the first trailer of which was shown off by TV network The CW today ahead…
Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) and Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) in “Avengers: Age of Ultron” (Marvel/Walt Disney Studios) This post discusses the plot of “Avengers: Age of Ultron.” Joss Whedon, the auteur who rose from indie television sensation “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” to stewardship of some of the most important movies in Marvel’s Cinematic Universe, has seemed…
Holy crap, how was that not the first season finale? Last night’s episode of The Flash, innocuously titled “Rogue Air,” is jam-packed with everything that’s made the second series in the DC TV-iverse so enjoyable, but also takes the show to a new level of goodness. And we still have one more episode to go!…
Oh no, someone took the Black Widow SNL sketch and turned it into a real series. CBS just released its first trailer for the Supergirl show and it is so depressingly paint-by-numbers we had to list the cliches off. But halfway in, it gets better. This is depressing. Why must this big, awesome female-led superhero…

I spend most of my time admiring and appreciating Joss Whedon’s writing skills. His feminism I can take or leave, but he’s very talented in the dialogue department: he understands why people like each other, why they love each other. He understands why they care and which parts of a story display humanity. He makes…
Some time in the middle of Avengers: Age of Ultron, I came to terms with the fact that there will never be any more decent Marvel movies. In fact, there can’t be. Some of what I have to say is going to read as genre snobbery. So let me get this out of the way:…
Photo Credit Marvel Entertainment In October, Marvel Comics introduced readers to a new hero: a female Thor. Since then, the identity of the woman wielding Thor’s mighty hammer has been a secret. But that ends on Wednesday when issue No. 8 of the Thor series, written by Jason Aaron and illustrated by Russell Dauterman, goes…
