  • Comic Book Cover of the Week: Daredevil Tightens The Noose…

    Daredevil to me has always been Marvel’s answer to Batman. He’s a vigilante searching the streets at night for whatever scum may be lurking in the shadows. He’s also had some pretty dark story lines over the years and this particular comic book cover drawn by John Romita Jr. is about as dark as it…

  • The Top 10 Superheroes You Wanna Party With!

    It’s now the new year YAY! 2015. Everyone has now felt the heavy hangover that comes along with New Years once again. Everyone attended parties and got wild and crazy! So lately I’ve been thinking about my favorite superheroes and if I were throw a party, just which of them I’d invite. It’s an interesting…

  • Amazing Animated Short Shorts! The Hulk Runs Out of Toilet Paper!

    I just discovered three of the most kick ass animated short films yesterday, I liked them so much that I had to share them here. Now don’t get me wrong I love the new Pixar type animation, I really do, but I still have a soft spot for the old school type animated cartoons. You…

  • Comic Book cover of the Week! A Classic Monster Brawl From Bernie Wrightson!

    Bernie Wrightson is easily one of the BEST artists ever in the world of comic books and fantasy. If you want a monster drawn right in an eerie landscape he’s the man for the job. Which is why he most likely drew this weeks cover of the week. The Incredible Hulk #197 has got the…

  • Nightwatch: Marvel’s Biggest Unsuccessful “Spawn” Rip-Off! Or is He?

    I actually only recently discovered the obscure Marvel character called “Nightwatch”, who’s most comedically undeniably a rip off of Spawn! His first appearance was Web Of Spider-man #99 from 1993 and to be honest back in 1993 I wasn’t all that taken with most Marvel titles except maybe Claremont and Jim Lee’s X-men reboot. So…

  • Iron Man & Hulk: Heroes United….CG Film at it’s Worst?!

    I just viewed the trailer for the upcoming Iron Man & Hulk: Heroes United animated Marvel movie and well I’m not impressed in the least. This is the kind of animation I just can’t stand. I am totally fine with CG animated movies, ones that actually look like someone spent some time on them. However…

  • Did ‘INDESTRUCTIBLE HULK #1’ Satisfy My Gamma Cravings?

    There’s a lot of hype surrounding Marvel NOW! titles that we are finally seeing hit the shelves. Being a big fan of The Incredible Hulk I was curious about this new title, as honestly it’s been quite a while since I have read a new Hulk comic I really dug. So here we have it…

  • Don’t Make Me ANGRY!! Mister Saturday HULKS out!

    HULK SMASH! Yesterday I released my second music video! Yes, the rumors are true. I am a part time Nerdcore reggae rapper called Mister Saturday. I have done dozens of songs about things I love like Star Trek, Three’s Company, Dungeons & Dragons, Godzilla, 1980’s action flicks, Land of the Lost and most recently The…

  • R.I.P. Hostess: Classic Twinkie Moments!!.

    Could it be true? The Twinkie is gone forever?! No more Ho Ho’s?! No more Ding Dongs?! Or those fruit pies? Or those Cup Cakes? Well truth be told I never ate many Twinkies or Hostess stuff in general when I was a kid, I really wanted to but Mom was always warning me that…

  • Brian Posehn Couldn’t Even Make Deadpool Funny!

    I just got done reading the new Marvel Now! Deadpool issue number one. This issue was co-written by Brian Posehn, a move Marvel has made to truly show you just how “hilarious” Deadpool is as a character. Though the issue was a decent fun read I expected a lot more in the comedy department having…
