So that video game for The Avengers we’ve been waiting to hear about? It’s not a movie tie-in (which is probably a good thing), and it’s only for Kinect and Wii U. Meh-heh? Read more »

The All-CG ‘Avengers’ End Title Sequence
Coolness! Visual effects house Method Studios created the “main-on-end” title sequence that plays immediately after The Avengers ends (but right before the much-discussed prologue). And they’ve posted their work online, in its entirety, so you can truly appreciate their painstaking attention to detail. (Note: this post contains no spoilers.) Read more »
Eight Obscure Avengers You Probably Never Heard Of
The membership of the world’s mightiest heroes has been fluid over the years, once upon a time peaking around two dozen at once. Those heady years of challenging the roster of even the Legion of Super-Heroes has long gone however, in favour of smaller separate teams as the franchise reaches even greater heights. Silverclaw When it comes to the Avengers, it’s a very small world. Who would have thought that Jarvis could have sponsored a child in another country and she turns out to be some form of super-powered individual. Swordsman II & Magdelena This pair never really got the exposure that they deserved. Arriving as alternate reality Avengers and Read more »
So, Where’s the Avengers Video Game?
Marvel and Playdom launched Marvel: Avengers Alliance last month on Facebook. It’s a social game centered around PvP fighting. But this is Marvel’s biggest franchise. Where’s the big-budget console tie-in game? Read more »
Avengers Through The Ages
Or at least through the age, considering that their centennial anniversary still lies in the future. Nevertheless, in celebration of the release of Avengers movie (finally!), I thought we could examine at the many looks of the core characters over the years. Now for many of us life-long fans, this movie is a dream come true; and way beyond time, too. It is nice to see that the first movie is in plot very similar to the original beginning of the Avengers, something to satisfy the purists among us. However, we cannot expect another six hundred-odd movies to follow the original history (more’s the pity), so I thought we could Read more »
Personality Clashes
So, now we are firmly entrenched in Marvel’s summer crossover of their greatest two super-teams at each other’s throats. Isn’t it a little early for summer? When I first heard of this particular ‘Event’, I must confess that my eyes raised heavenward, thinking that Marvel were rather scraping the bottom of the barrel. After a couple of months of advance solicitations, my enthusiasm for the whole Avengers Versus X-Men was raised by a sum total of zero (that’s zero) percent. Now that we are two issues in and the storyline is spreading though the Marvel titles like a potent virus in a small town, I have one startling admission to Read more »

First Peek at eFX’s Avengers Collectibles
You know The Avengers movie must be getting closer when licensee companies are making announcements. In my inbox today was a press release from eFX announcing their line of Avengers movie replicas, and showing off a first peek at what they have in store. Read more »
Marvel Soap That Will Get Anyone Wanting to Clean Up
Have a kid who is averse to cleaning up? When I say kid, I am not just referring to the age – you know what I mean? I remember someone saying before that women wash their hands after going to the loo less than men do. While I am not sure about the veracity of that statement, I know for sure that this set of Marvel soap will get anyone wanting to keep washing their hands. Or taking a shower. Or anything that will be a good excuse to use the soap. I have to admit that I am a sucker for liquid hand soap more than solid soap, but Read more »
Challenging The Status Quo
Taking the opportunity of the Christmas period to catch upon my comics reading (and supplementing this with fanfic when I reached the bottom of the stack), I must confess that I re-read Jonathon Hickman’s Fantastic Four and FF (Future Foundation) numerous times. Although I have raved bout this particular run of the FF numerous times already, and enthused about the quality of story-telling that has gone into the title, it is hardly a dramatic revamp of our favourite Foursome and their family. Cleverly weaving in all of the traditional facets of FF lore, I am finding myself wanting to know where Lyja is (considering the manner of Johnny’s resurrection), or Read more »
