[After creating and then testing the drinking rules, Swan and Penguin recap their adventures with the movie. Offering their thoughts on the quality of the film itself, as well as how the drinking rules held up, and if worth using.] We watched the original Ghost Rider film early last year, around the same time, both …

Now, I have no idea who Captain Carrot …

Ask a Dork: Disney/Lucasfilm/Marvel Crossovers

NYCC 12: Talk of the Town: Avengers: Battle for Earth
At New York Comic Con this weekend, I got to go hands on (or hands off, do people still make those jokes?) with Marvel’s Avengers: Battle for Earth on the Kinect. The game could best be described as an team-based, arena fighter based on my limited time with the demo. In it, you can play …

Review Shooter: Uncanny Avengers 1
Writer: Rick Remender Artist: John Cassaday For months, I’ve been trying to peg down exactly what MarvelNow! was. It wasn’t a full on universal reboot as the New 52 was for DC last year, but it also wasn’t supposed to be a simple continuation of what had already come. It was some mystical beast that would be …

Review Shooter: Deadpool Kills The Marvel Universe 1
Writer: Cullen Bunn Artists: Dalibor Talajic and Lee Loughride I’ve noted on the podcast before that I’m not a traditional comic fan, I don’t follow characters or artists or writers, I just tend to find things that catch my eye. Or put it another way, shiny covers! So of course when a comic is titled …

Review Shooter: The Avengers
In 2008, Marvel Studio’s released Iron Man. This was to be the first feature film financed and produced by Marvel Entertainment. Marvel characters weren’t new to the big screen (Spider-man and X-men were two of the biggest movie franchises ever), but Iron Man was to be different. It was the beginning of something much bolder …
