Marvel's next big film is Captain Marvel and nobody's going to pass up a golden opportunity for cross-promotion. During this afternoon's Nintendo Direct, it was revealed that Captain Marvel is one of the playable superheroes in Marvel...

Since the launch of Marvel's Spider-Man, fans have been very vocal about the skins and costumes they'd like to see Peter Parker don as his swings his way across New York City. One regular request has been for the Bombastic Bag Man outfit, a...

Insomniac Games got so much right with Spider-Man. First and foremost: the swinging. Collectively, we're conditioned to expect Spider-Man to move a certain way as he swings around town, zipping between high-rises like the concrete jungle is...

If this is it for Spider-Man PS4, it had a good run. It didn't even need DLC (an inevitable sequel will do just fine), but the existing add-on trilogy did a decent job of allowing us to continue enjoying the game's strong foundati...

The Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy of films defined the character for a generation of fans. In an era where comic book adaptations were typically viewed as fluff, Raimi brought gravitas and respect to the medium that had rarely been seen on t...

Half the fun of fighting game reveals is the inevitable months-long conversation about which characters will make the roster. We're going through that right now with Mortal Kombat 11 but at an expedited pace because it releases relativ...

We're only 15 minutes in, and The Game Awards 2018 is already bringing the heat. Marvel has resurrected a long-gone comic book action-RPG series: Marvel Ultimate Alliance. The third of these games is coming next year, Marvel Ultimate Allia...

In just two months time we're two thirds of the way through Spider-Man's DLC (that we know of so far). We're just...swinging along like your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

Insomniac did a decent job of adapting the Black Cat character (including drip-fed bits of her father's time with the mantle) with the recent Spider-Man DLC "The Heist," and now the three-part ($24.99) season pass is set to continue with "T...

You can't find a more influential comic book than Watchmen. Watchmen was a 12 issue comic book limited series released from 1986-1987 that received critical acclaim upon its release. It was the first comic book to be seen by mainstream...

The still-untitled Avengers 4 is set to be the longest Marvel film to date, according to co-director Joe Russo. In a recent live stream Q&A, Russo stated, "The running time on Avengers 4 is currently sitting right at three hours. We'l...

The more I hear about HBO's Watchmen, the more intrigued I am by it. Whether it was showrunner Damon Lindelof's bizarre letter about the project or how Dave Gibbons quoted the series to temper fan expectation, I can't help but be excited. E...

Coming completely out of left field, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds will be getting some Suicide Squad DLC costumes soon. Players will be able to dress their characters up as either Jared Leto's Joker or Margot Robbie's Harley Quinn and kill...

The coolest part about adapting lesser-known superheroes and superhero groups into movies is letting audiences peek into the rabbit hole of comic book villains. As a teen, I read through the entire DC encyclopedia of heroes and villains, an...

Spider-Man has been mixed up in a heap of relationships over the years and most of them are messy. Injecting one of them into a DLC of all places sets off all sorts of alarm bells, but Insomniac managed to keep The Heist grounded withi...

You know what isn't moving forward? Luke Cage Season 3.  Hot off the heels of Iron Fist's cancellation, it seems that Luke Cage is the next Marvel Netflix show on the chopping block. Despite Netflix saying earlier that they were "super...

For most of us out there the fate of the Marvel Netflix shows seemed pretty up in the air. After Disney announced its own streaming service, the second seasons failed to attract the massive cultural buzz that the first seasons did, and when...

There's no denying the greatness of Alan Moore's Watchmen. The 1987 story took a dark look at the superhero realm, filled it with riotous prerogatives and semi-retired heroes forced into a choice of underground vigilante or common...

The DCEU is pretty much at a standstill. Sure, we've got Aquaman coming out, but with Cavill's Superman up in the air, Shazam! seeming to play mostly on its own, Batman development focusing on his early years, and Wonder Woma...

In news that is probably shocking to no one, Marvel and Netflix's Iron Fist will not be returning for a third season. Despite apparently improving the second time around, the showrunners at Marvel have passed on continuing Danny Rand's tale...

Comic book adaptations are all the rage today, yet I don't think anyone was expecting CBS to announce that they just ordered a pilot for a TV series based on DC's Secret Six series. The series is somewhat similar to Suicide Squad, where a g...

During the Walking Dead panel at New York Comic-Con this weekend, Robert Kirkman (co-creator of The Walking Dead) announced that Skybound Games has acquired the rights for Telltale's Walking Dead series. Kirkman stated, "We've successfully ...

It is really easy to tear Venom apart. There are a myriad of issues with it from casting to screenplay to plotting to... well, everything. Superhero movies have come a long way in the past ten years, and Venom feels like it learne...

To say that Watchmen is one of the most important comics ever published is a huge understatement. To many fans, it's so sacred that the idea of expanding upon the core story through prequels or sequels is almost sacrilegious. The 2009 movie...

The more we learn about Venom, the more disappointing it seems. While likely just being honest about his experience on the set, in a recent interview with YouTube channel "ComicsExplained," Tom Hardy revealed that around 30-40 minutes of...
