Dane is The Black Knight, a long serving Avenger in the comics.

I think the most important news is that Feige confirmed that Boseman did much more voice work during the What If session and that Coogler is incorporating it into Black Panther 2. They were very clever to stress they wouldn’t recast or recreate Boseman with CGI- looks like they don’t need to because some aspect of him…

Nothing against the Queen of Soul who certainly did do her own take/arrangement on it, but I didn’t know this film states that she composed “Respect”- reading this review and again seeing the trailer (which would suggest this), I have to point out: Otis Redding wrote “Respect”. 

Yeah. DC was a little better. The guy who created Wolverine got nothing unless Hugh Jackman took care of it- Marvel did nothing. That same creator created the mid-level supporting character in the Batman comics than Morgan Freeman later played; DC flew him to the premieres and took care of his family. It’s a huge…

Staggering that Pop Culture is just getting hip to this, but then again they still believe the corporate-funded and necessary myth that Stan Lee “created” all the Marvel stuff when it was all brought to him fully formed before he added his contribution to it. The comics industry is one of the most incestuous and…

This is the kind of headline I often long to see but rarely get to.

I do think it’s extremely unfair and evidence of a fan’s fantasy casting and romanticized fetish of what being queer means for a very simple reason: applying sexuality to pre-existing characters after the fact is an injustice TO that sexuality. Why not create new leading characters with their own show who were Gay to…

It’s somewhat guilt easing to find out that a guy I’ve absolutely loathed for years actually turned out to be a complete asshole. 

By the same writer who thought Florence Kasumba was Danai Gurira just last week and left it uncorrected for hours. I guess this is her penance, calling out other people doing cringe worthy White People Stuff.

Aww, more celebs are not the characters we enjoyed on pop culture content *chokes*

The sad thing is that it really does seem a case of someone watching the show and assuming two Black women with similar character looks were just the same person.

Sometimes we have to admit that AV club writers are essentially fan bloggers and that AV club articles are rewriting press releases. 

That was Ayo, a different character- and actress- from Danai Gurira. She appears in Civil War prominently in the scene where she tells Black Widow to “move or be moved”. 

The fact that there’s a Cosmic Ghost Rider once again shows that Marvel has completely devolved into 1950s-1960s DC, where any “new” idea was just a variation on an existing character. 

I was boycotting the Marvel movies around 2012 when the Kirby vs Marvel case was going on to support the artists exploited by Marvel’s work-f0r-hire kickback scheme but when it was settled, I resumed watching and enjoyed it, but I kind of felt cool with not having the same sense of urgency after ENDGAME. It was such a…

You’re not wrong but it’s ongoing as Marvel has run out of the first and second tier properties they have, which is nothing against the characters like Eternals and Shang-Chi as I dig them both (and a lesser continuity backlog, as these characters haven’t been published non-stop the past forty or fifty years like,…

“who are friends with a bad Han Solo rip-off.” This irks me to write as I don’t enjoy Star Lord but it’s worth noting that Star Lord appears in 1975 and Star Wars didn’t come out until 1977. And Jack Kirby’s NEW GODS and his work on Doctor Doom especially at Marvel were blatantly and directly ripped off by Lucas…

I am stealing this idea. Your bad for not copyrighting it!!!

What Stodden went through being groomed by that creep is beyond disgusting. They did not deserve that. Hollywood has a long history of normalizing and enabling this behavior with younger girls though. I do take exception to owing an apology to Courtney Stodden or any other celebrity, regardless of their sex or…

I agree totally- it was too puffy and fluffed up looking and the white parts are distracting. Sam had such a great speech in that end scene and I thought it was a huge disservice to that scene that his costume was so distracting. I also thought the First Avenger 1940s’ Cap costume was also kind of puffy. I hope they…
