Peter Parker, with the help of his mentor Tony Stark, tries to balance his life as an ordinary high school student in New York City while fighting crime as his superhero alter ego Spider-Man when a new threat emerges. (IMDb) It sure does seem like there has been a hell of a lot of Spider-man […]
After the bore-fest that was Grim vs Grimmer I didn’t hold out much hope for Wonder Woman. I had thought Gadot was one of the best things about that Supes v Bats film, but DC really haven’t had a great run of superheroes films recently. I didn’t even bother with Suicide Squad. I also don’t […]
[imdb_movie_detail title=”Logan” detail=”plot”] Logan has always been my favourite X-men1 .

The problem I have with so many comic book characters is where exactly to start. There is so much back story to the established ones that it is hard to just pick up an issue/collection and think you’ll know what’s going on. Wonder Woman is no different, she’s been around for years, and this is […]
The first five issues of the Hawkeye series together with issue #6 of Young Avengers. This is the story of what Hawkeye does when he’s not Avenging1 .
