Pick up the latest issue (224) to find out! Frank’s been abroad on a mission since he got the armor, but now he’s back stateside. Needless to say, the heroes are not pleased...

Punisher is War Machine right now and it’s AWESOME.

If they really want to make a kickass show, they should adapt the flashback material from the “First Ally” arc from Scott Snyder’s recent All-Star Batman. Alfred at his most badass.

No, they’re not. Charles is just the worst writer on this site.

IIRC, it was implied (or maybe even straight out stated, it’s been a while) that Joker has known Batman’s identity for years, but he pretends not to because it’s more fun that way. And this is from the promo material DC has been putting out, but I’m pretty sure that in-universe it’s outwardly Batman that’s getting…

Well, they obviously know each other’s secret identities, but yes to the outside world it’s Batman and Catwoman that are getting married, and it remains to be seen how they’re going to resolve that with their private personas. IIRC, Batman is doing some work to try to clear Selina’s name.

Yup! Meanwhile over at Marvel, it’s raining Celestials in the new Avengers #1. And all I could think of was, “So...crack in the source wall?”

Was reading that this morning. All I could think while looking at that page was, “That’s not how you carry a pizza!”

Bendis has already gone on the record saying he loves Jon and will not be fucking with the Super family.

You needed more rules for this list. A mixed drink is booze + 1 mixer (also commonly known as a “long drink”), with or without a fruit garnish. Cocktails, while still technically drinks that are mixed, are a different ballgame. Cocktails have 3+ ingredients (not including the garnish). So basically whiskey sour,…

Question: in the scenes where Bernard is talking to Dolores in her blue dress...isn’t that Arnold? I was under the impression that whenever we see ‘Bernard’ talking to Dolores about the dreams, her nature, etc., that those were flashbacks to before Arnold’s death.

They’re never going to leave any of these fucking franchises alone if they think/know they can make a profit off of them, so that’s besides the point.

Sorry, I can’t hear/read the word glisten without that coming to mind!

Yeah, but Cameron’s back producing this one, Tim Miller’s directing...expectations gotta be little bit higher.

Winter Soldier might be a great MCU movie, but I think First Avenger is the greatest single superhero movie of all time. It holds up incredibly well on its own without relying on MCU connections (the only connections it has to other movies are the things it sets up for them). And it’s also inspirational as fuck. I…

I’ll probably get stuck in the grays as usual (James, please help!), but somebody’s gotta say it: that’s a trash title for the new Terminator movie. If this movie is ignoring everything that’s come after T2, that means the continuity goes: The Terminator, T2: Judgement Day, Terminator. REMOVING AN ARTICLE DOES NOT…

See my response to redskull. I agree that the number of people who are hip to these things is growing, but a lot of the general public is still pretty oblivious. But the studios don’t need the general public to go see these movies, as the fanbase for sci-fi and general nerd stuff has exploded in the past decade.

This was my first thought too. And short answer is, no, the ‘general’ public will not and does not get it. Unless you have an interest in these things, the typical layperson has no idea what’s going on. Exhibit A: girl I was hanging out with asked me to explain what’s going on with Bane and Venom. Is Tom Hardy playing…

I liked Unchained, but I read it like 6 months ago and for the life of me can’t really remember the plot, so it can’t have been that great haha.

While Bendis is best-known for his street-level stuff, I don’t think its their proximity to the street that makes them great. Bendis is at his best when he is writing a character introspectively – when he really gets inside their heads and lets you hear their thoughts. Even though he loves to write dialogue, I’d say…
