I had a few people over on Halloween night. We roasted marshmallows and talked comics. At one point, my brother asked me, “Do you think Johnny Blaze will ever show up on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.?” I said, “I don’t know. He’s pretty brutal for network TV. Besides, what would they do with two Riders?” 24 hours later, I was proven wrong. Tuesday night’s episode of Agents let us in on a bit of the history of Robbie Reyes, the incarnation of the Rider chosen to appear on the show. He said he made a deal with a devil to become…

New images have been officially released from the set of 2017’s Beauty and the Beast, showing Belle (Emma Watson) in the familiar yellow ball gown, and Beast (Dan Stevens) in his regal blue coat. We also see Belle in her outfit from earlier in the film, while she’s still in her village (white dress with a blue apron); Gaston (Luke Evans) sitting on a horse, looking like the imperious twit he is; and, straight from your childhood, the familiar sentient clock, teapot, candlestick, and feather duster. The impressive cast also includes Ewan McGregor, Kevin Kline, Emma Thompson, Sir Ian McKellan,…

Some things just can’t be unseen. The First Couple of WWE, John Cena and Nikki Bella, took Halloween a step too far. Adhering to the old adage that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, the wrestlers decided to dress up as each other. Nikki Cena wasn’t too horrible, but John Bella is the stuff of your most hilarious nightmares. With a long black wig, red FEARLESS belly shirt, and yes, even the black crotch-cutter booty shorts, John undulates awkwardly in a burned-in-your-brain facsimile of Nikki’s signature dance. Take a look. But don’t say I didn’t warn you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TmwVCjdZ1A These…

Cosplayers tend to gravitate toward elaborate costumes, often involving makeup, prosthetics, armor, and props to recreate their favorite characters. It’s a labor of nerd love, usually with amazing results. But sometimes, less is more. Take a look at cosplayer Oliver Hollingdale’s incredible John Wick costume. From the suit to the long black hair to the gun, it’s pitch-perfect. He even managed to get Keanu Reeves’ strangely shaped facial hair just right! Check it out below: John Wick 2 hits theaters February 10th, 2017 and John Wick 3 is already in development. What do you think of this costume? Have you…

Since the post-credits scene in Deadpool revealed that the incredibly powerful, time-traveling mutant Cable would be along for the ride in the sequel, we’ve spent the last eight months endlessly speculating who should play him, and how big of a role he might play in the film. Cable is, hands-down, my favorite comic book character. I have a picture in my mind of how he looks, sounds, moves, and thinks. But not everyone is so familiar with him, so it might be hard to imagine a 6’8, 350 pound human wall with a bionic arm and a laser eye. From…

YouTube user Stryder HD has made an interesting trailer, titled “Batman: The Great Wall,” in which Bruce Wayne finds adventure on the other side of the world, in China. A peaceful land has been invaded by terrible monsters, as well as a human monster: Bane. Batman must not only protect the citizens, but teach them to protect themselves as well. Reminiscent of films like 47 Ronin, it incorporates history, fantasy, martial arts action, and a pinch of grounded realism together into one film, using footage from Nolan’s trilogy, as well as Lord of the Rings and The Last Samurai. Check…

There be Game of Thrones spoilers here! Production recently began on Game of Thrones’ seventh season. Filming is currently taking place in Spain, and photos have emerged showing the much-anticipated meeting between Kit Harrington’s Jon Snow and Emilia Clarke’s Daenerys Targaryen. Also, video (that you can see below) was posted yesterday on YouTube from the Basque set, showing a confrontation between Snow and Theon Greyjoy. Snow is waiting on the Dragonstone beach, where several characters, including Greyjoy, sail up to meet him. There’s no audio of their lines, but we do see snow grab Greyjoy by the throat, so it’s…

By now, we’ve all seen the incredible trailer for Logan, Hugh Jackman’s final outing as Wolverine. But what you probably haven’t seen yet is YouTube user Phillysteak’s mashup trailer, combining the audio from Logan with scenes from the classic 90’s X-Men cartoon, as well as X-Men Evolution. Old Man Logan, X-23, a future with no X-Men, Logan being hunted like an animal – it’s all there. And of course, Johnny Cash’s haunting version of the Nine Inch Nails classic “Hurt” makes just about anything seem to rise to another level. It’s amazing how well the footage fits the tone of…

Just in case there’s anyone on earth who didn’t watch it live last night, AMC has released The Walking Dead’s heart-wrenching season 7 premiere to be viewed online. We’ve spent 6 months in a state of dreadful anticipation, waiting to find out (but not really wanting to know) who Negan decided to kill as an example to Rick’s group. I won’t spoil it for you, but I will say this: no matter how prepared you think you are……….trust me, you’re not. (I’ve watched every episode of this series live, and this is the first one that ever made me cry.)…

It’s been a roller coaster of a weekend for comic and CBM fans. Legendary artist Steve Dillon, whose incredible resume included the Judge Dredd, Constantine, Preacher, and Punisher comics, passed away at the age of 54. Then, AT&T set out to purchase Time Warner, which includes DC Films. This could likely have a huge impact on the DC film universe. Finally, on Saturday, news broke that Tim Miller, director of the massive hit Deadpool, has quit the sequel over creative differences with its star, Ryan Reynolds. (The point of contention was said to be the casting of Cable, so let’s…
