January 19, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The next Captain America film will be called Civil War. Now, comic book fans will know what happened in the Mark Millar series but that doesn’t mean the movie will go the same way. The internet has been having fun over the last few days with alternative suggestions as to why the row kicked off. […]

About the Infinity Gauntlet; what powers does it have?

January 15, 2015 by Andrew Girdwood 6 Comments

The comic book fans at NeoMan Studios have put together this infographic for Thanos’ Infinity Gauntlet. This is a mashup of comic book lore of powers and colours of Infinity stones with the Marvel movies they’ve featured on.

Geeky workouts

April 6, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Is “geeky workout” an oxymoron? Hmm, I suspect not, some of the geeks I know are also gym bunnies. I think Neila Ray might also classify. Her site has everything from workouts to fitness tips and recipes… but there’s a geeky flare too. For example, these visual workouts are a case in point.

Madhouse anime teams the Punisher with Black Widow

January 23, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Marvel’s Avengers are getting the anime treatment – no longer a rare thing for American successes. The series is created by Madhouse and gets off to a cracker by pairing two low level but sneaky bastard fighters together. Black Widow and Punisher, who both look anime-impressive, team up to take on Leviathan who have been […]

My argument: Black Panther deserves to be favourite

January 10, 2014 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s a TV ad running in the UK for a subscription to a graphic novel collection called “Marvel’s Mightiest Heroes”. If you’re in the UK and had the tellybox on you may well have seen it. It’s one of those deals where you pay a little for the first book, unlock a bunch of goodies […]

A Civil Armageddon: Steed and Mrs Peel review

December 26, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Josh Whedon’s The Avengers never made the cinema in the UK. The movie people did their market research and concluded the name was taken. Releasing the super hero meets super spy film without changing the name would confuse people. The official UK title was The Avengers Assemble. Mark Waid reminds us why Steed and Mrs […]

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. teasers

August 8, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Marvel have been pumping out plenty of teasers for S.H.I.E.L.D. and I suspect the American network carrying the show, ABC, are helping too. Here’s two more. Agent Coulson gathers his team from across the US to investigate the growing number of superheroes. This is a Joss Whedon (Jed too) project and it’s hard to see […]
