"Jammin Me"

uhhh, "Turn the Page".

This book seems to beg for a comic book adaptation.

Or are you?

But then you need to introduce Mar-vell as part of that, and make her Ms Marvel? Or she gets Mar-vell's powers and he dies so you don't have to have him hanging around? That way she can be Captain Marvel in his honor? I think you need to erase all that and just have one Captain Marvel getting her powers from aliens

Her story makes a little less sense without Mar-vell existing first, but not an enormous amount less. Her origin is actually shitty enough that you should just sweep it under a rug and come up with a new one involving space aliens and being a champion of good, except don't make it sound too much like Green Lantern.

As a gay white man, wouldn't you rather see a good movie than a terrible movie, no matter who was starring in or writing it? They do market different types of movies to different groups based on guessing what they want. Hollywood is probably wrong in their assumptions about what people want, but if they keep making

Zoe Saldana was pretty terrible and wooden, but the character was pretty neutered as well. The "most dangerous woman in the universe" was actually all emotional, mushily romantic, and pretty easily scared. Disappointing all around considering how well the script and actors seemed to get the other characters.

Or one with Black Widow and Hawkeye, where Natasha is the competent one and Clint is the lovable fuck-up.

Maybe she'll be in the Netflix series as Luke Cage's nanny?

You do have to admit that Priest worked pretty regularly for the big two until he produced an absolutely terrible Captain America and Falcon series back in 04. That shit was awful. Before that it seems like his career was mostly b-level characters and fill-ins. I freely admit that there are a ton of terrible white

Wait, they wrote books about that Mad Black Woman, not just movies?

The basis of Get Fuzzy doesn't seem that promising: the cartoonist has a cat that is an asshole and a dog that is dumb and blindly loving and sweet. Kind of cliched. But it's the details of how moronically vain and asshole-ish that cat is that makes it work. He just writes it well and pulls it off. Even the one tooth

R Kelly is wearing woefully insufficient protective gear for riding that motorcycle. Really, a T-shirt and Fuzzy animal print cowboy hat? I know of no fuzzy cowboy hats that are DOT approved, animal print or not!

It does have a clear Doc Savage connection, but so do so many early comics. The movie does have a clearly cartoonish version of reality and would have fit in with the oddball 70's comic books from Marvel.

I have not read the books, but the boobs to dicks ratio on the TV show is absurdly in the favor of boobs. And whoever casts all of the secondary characters is most definitely a fan of big 'uns.

It's comics, secondary characters completely change with each new writer. And they do terrible and crazy things as part of insane plot lines all the time. He's actually been a pretty important character considering how little readers and writers seem to care for him. Since the 80's there seems to be one writer after

You have just one mental breakdown where you become a smug over-confident dick, build a giant robot to attack your friends so that you can save the day and avoid being kicked out of the Avengers, and slap your wife in the face just once, and nobody lets it go. It's all "Pym's unstable and a wifebeater" from then on.

Earl Tupper invented the Ware, she came up with the marketing for it.
