Believe it or not, somewhere one Earth Marvel’s Ant man is somebody’s favorite Avenger. With Avenger mania sweeping the planet (and draining wallets everywhere) Marvel Studios is fully aware that Ant Man has the potential to be HUGE (see what I did there).

So the DC 52 is now upon us. We’ve had the kick off of Justice League and the second week’s 13 issues released. So what is the best thing to come out of the 52? I know what you are expecting me to do and I think I may surprise [...]

Locke & Key was a big announcement for Fox, and then just as quickly was pulled. Fortunately (unfortunately?) there was some work done and this trailer hit the internet. The show looks amazing and I really think Fox may have screwed the pooch on this one. Although, it may [...]
Scott Kurtz, Mike Krahulik, and Jerry Holkins all started web comics in the 90s. PvP and Penny Arcade have gone on to be MASSIVE online hits and have even branched out into conventions (PAX), books, and an animated series. The success is easily measured. Well the three of them apparently [...]
