This season’s big bad on The Flash isn’t just a classic tale of Barry versus a villain. It’s an actual mystery. We have no idea who the person calling themselves Savitar, God of Speed actually is. All we know as fans is that this bad guy plans to end the Barry and Iris love story […]

Movie Review: An Impressive Battle Royale in ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’
After an on-going controversy stemming from its initial production and casting, the highly anticipated Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice finally opened up last Friday. Although the gladiator matchup of the ages left critics with a bad taste in their mouth and less than kind reviews, the film racked up a little more than an […]
Which Comic Book Movie Will Conquer 2016?
While most people usual have a special date marked on their calendar, if you’re a fan of comic books then you probably have quite a few circled for 2016 (if not the entire year). This year, we are going to be spoiled for choice when it comes to comic book movies. A number of them feature […]
Movie Review: The Not-So-‘Fantastic Four’
The Fantastic Four is my favorite superhero team in the Marvel Universe. When I started reading comics, I loved X-Men and the Avengers, but was captivated by the idea of family that journeyed into the unknown together. They had differences and good times like any family, and they also beat up bad guys. No matter […]
The Importance of Batman
Happy Batman Day! Seventy-six years ago today, Batman (created by artist, Bob Kane and writer, Bill Finger) made his first ever appearance in Detective Comics #27. On account of those early comic book appearances that catapulted the Caped Crusader into stardom, today Batman has become one of of the most well known characters in the history of our American […]

X-Men: Days of Future Past: Does Time Heal Old Wounds?
It’s been almost 14 years since 20th Century Fox released the movie X-Men. Based off of the Marvel comics from the 1960s, the first two installments of the franchise helped break ground for comic book movies to become an excepted (and exceedingly popular) genre in the theatres.
Graphic Fiction: A Picture is Worth A Thousand Words
Recently, I’ve discovered graphic fiction: comic books, graphic novels, and manga. Without a doubt, graphic fiction is an under appreciated genre of literature. And I admit, up until taking a class on graphic fiction at school, I’d never given the genre a second thought myself. To me, they were always about superheroes and villains, fighting […]
A Canadian At Comic-Con
When you tell someone you’re going to San Diego Comic-Con – the biggest, most international “geek” convention in the world – you tend to get one of two responses. Either the person looks at you, a little bewildered, and asks, “That’s a real thing? They didn’t just make that up for The Big Bang Theory?”, […]
‘Iron Man 3’ delivers gritty, but compelling superhero tale
There’s a moment in Iron Man 3 when Robert Downey Jr. (in a voiceover as Tony Stark) says that you can take away his home and suits of armor, but there’s one thing you can’t take from him: He is Iron Man. Since first donning the iconic red and gold armor in 2008’s Iron Man, […]
