Women don’t get the benefit of the doubt generally, regardless of race. Progressive platforms like Jezebel take the view that women’s claims of violence and/or rape are often not believed or taken seriously, a view that is backed up by a lot of evidence (Bill Cosby, NFL, Colleges, Frats etc.). They both sound highly…

I also have heat shields for re-entry.

Yes, I think it was one of Marvel’s large format, B&W books, like Deadly Hands of Kung Fu and The Savage Sword of Conan.

That’s totally not phallic, not at all.

I think of Penn as a lot more talented than Brown, but his record of violent outbursts in his youth is remarkably similar.

I could talk about Marvel’s Bronze Age forever, but I’ll just plug one more rare gem: Moench and Mike Ploog’s Planet of the Apes. There needs to be more exploration of that era, the storytelling was so rich and idiosyncratic.

I wonder if the “force blasts” will allow T’Challa to make extraordinary leaps and dash movements, just like a jedi.

The Bronze Age was my favorite era, particularly for Marvel comics and not simply out of nostalgia for my misspent youth (although that is a certainly a part of it). It was sort of an auteur period for comics, with writers in the driver’s seat and able to create their own discrete sub-universes under the Marvel…

Don McGregor and Billy Graham’s BP arc from the ‘70s, “The Panther’s Rage”, is verbose (McGregor tends to overwrite), but otherwise quite a beautiful and poetic adventure with health doses of romance, drama and politics.

Not you too. This mass exodus is bumming me out. Good luck at the New Republic.

I don’t think people love Sean Penn, at least judging by Gun Men’s box-office, but its fair to say his violence is not treated the same as Brown’s. He must have been on TDSw/ John Stewart and The Colbert Report half a dozen times.

Ros’ sudden death was a wicked gut punch, and set Coulson on his mission, armed only with a parachute, a plan, and vibranium balls.

To be fair, BP appears to be a major antagonist to Cap’s team, where Spiderman’s role is still undefined.

I know the studios hate each other, but it seems inevitable that Fox and Marvel strike a deal soon. Fox needs to make some money off this debacle. Marvel would love to have the FF and its family of characters especially Doom, who could be the centerpiece of a Secret Wars movie.

The Chitauri seem to be the MCU’s Annihilus replacement.

DOOM JUST FUCKIN’ HATES THE EAGLES AND THE ACCURSED RICHARDS, MAN.

Enviromentally-friendly Transformers kind of defeats their whole purpose. How do you teach a child patience and discipline if they don’t have to wait for a Transformer until they old enough not to try to swallow the little plastic pieces?

While I agree that Jessica killing Reva Connors seemed random, the fact that she had a drive with info on Kilgrave suggests that she might have had info on other people with powers as well, including Luke. Both Kilgrave and Cage got their powers through experimentation and we know clandestine agencies are gathering…

Pam, Hogarth’s love interest, is an assistant, not a secretary. Sounds like I’m being a stickler, but the assistants I know are very particular about that.

Hot Muslim celebrities in love is the answer to our prayers. Not even Islamophobia can defeat industrial strength ‘Shipping.
