The next big event happening with “Marvel” is “Generations” and part of that is a series called “Marvel Legacy”. Part of that is the introduction of “Avengers 100,000,000 BC”. Confused yet? To blatantly steal a line from “Watchmen” “don’t be alarmed that only indicates you are still sane”.

watchmen

If you haven’t seen the team it features Odin, “Agamotto” (the guy whose eye “Dr. Strange” wears), and a “Hulk”-looking guy whose a“Star Brand” (“Star Brand” is a “New Universe” character “Marvel” has been trying to make happen for the last few years).

fetch

Also there are version of “Phoenix”, “Iron Fist”, “Ghost Rider” (who rides a flaming Mastadon!!!), and “Black Panther”.

My kneejerk reaction is “this is stupid and makes no sense for a whole host of reason”, BUT the art looks good. So even though I’m going to make fun of this all week in these comics I’ll actually try to give it a fair chance when it comes out. Fingers crossed folks…

Tomorrow these guys return and continue on about the “Prehistoric Revenge Squad”. Hope ya enjoy and see ya then!

Wonder Woman : Now They’re Just Getting Greedy

I’ve harped on “Wonder Woman” a lot, but the level to which it is overrated keeps ramping up. It has now gone from “ridiculous” to “fanatical”. It’s so bad that I thought maybe I was too harsh on it so I got a cammed version so I could watch it again… Nope it’s a C+ movie. At best. I wouldn’t give ya shit if you gave it a B, but it’s a C movie. I still need to re-watch “Man Of Steel” to see if it’s even the best “DCEU” movie. I went into pretty good detail about the flaws so I won’t bore you with that again. I’m not saying it’s completely without merit or it’s terrible. It has “heart”. Which is pretty much the film equivalent of “she’s got a nice personality”.

I bring all this up because supposedly now there’s a campaign for “Wonder Woman” to get an “Oscar”.

pac

foh

This is just greedy. You skated by on a mediocre movie. Don’t be like Trump. Take your “technical” win with some humility. Learn from the mistakes and come back with a movie that actually deserves the praise. Knowing how things work if it does get nominated it will probably get an “Oscar” for something. If this happens they should give it to the people who made “Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.2”. A movie that is better written, has more and better action, is funnier, and actually has more “heart” in it’s own way. So far it is BY FAR the best superhero movie this year.

Oh and as far as the comic, just in case it wasn’t clear Salty Sandy is basically “Petter Potts”. Tomorrow Admiral A, Admiral Star, The Good Knight, and Slowku discuss a contest and an induction. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Ya know what I really liked? I like when “The Punisher” was off by himself in an R-rated comic that was part of “Marvel’s” “Max line” of comics. “The Punisher” could be in violent messed-up stories and wouldn’t be involved in some terrible crossover. Sadly, those days are gone… They went and brought him back in the normal “Marvel Universe”. Now with this “Secret Invasion” crossover they got going on he’s part of “Hydra”. Ugh!

There’s a rationale for it, and I guess it kinda makes sense but still… Ugh! He shouldn’t be in this the first place. He should be murdering mobsters by the truckload. That would be bad enough, but lately “Marvel” and “DCComics” have been playing “bad idea chicken”. As far as comics “Marvel’s” been winning this race to the bottom for a while now. “Marvel” is going to up the ante by making “The Punisher” the new “War Machine”. Yep kill off one of the few Black characters that’s isn’t just a poor man’s version of a White hero and replace him with a White guy who shouldn’t even be involved in the first place. What even needs to be said at this point?

Tomorrow these guys return and Spiderous-Man elaborates on what he wants The Innovator to do. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

I haven’t finished “Iron Fist” yet. I forgot what was going on and had to rewatch episode 12 and only got halfway through it. So let’s move on to “Supergirl”. I’m a good ways into this week’s episode and I gotta say I’m already getting tired of her and “Mon-El”. Either they’re so lovey dovey it’s gross or they’re fighting about something stupid. Can this show get a “big bad” already?

That’s it for “Criminal And Crimefigher Conversations” this week. There will be another update on “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” on Friday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

I watched another episodes and a half of “Iron Fist” last night. I plan to finish it tonight. In my list of stuff that’s wrong with “Iron Fist” I did yesterday I forgot the biggest one. That is the fact that you never see this place “K’un-Lun” where “Iron Fist gets trained.

This seems to be a diberate choice, but I’d say it was the wrong one.

Again “Iron Fist” is decent, but not great. Tomorrow Jade Archer and Fiddy Fo’ talk to Hazard Hands about his show. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Special-Girl, Hazard Hands, Apex & Quickie On Hazard Hands’ Show

ccc-179-specialgirl(czar)hazardhandsapexandquickietemplate-01

I’ve (half) watched the first 10 episodes of “Iron Fist” and it is true. “Iron Fist” in not was good as the other “Marvel” “Netflix” shows. Keep in mind that’s a HIGH bar to measure up to. “Daredevil”, “Jessica Jones”, and “Luke Cage” were each unique entertainment experiences. “Iron Fist” is not quite that.

What it is, is above average. I would say “Lucifer” is an average show. If they took it off I wouldn’t care but it’s enjoyable. It’s a procederal with some gimmicks that keep it interesting. “Iron Fist” is better than that.

So what are the problems?

  • There’s a lot of “been there done that” in the first few episodes. “Batman Begins”, “Arrow”, “Dr. Strange”, and even “Legion” had covered this territory
  • There’s not a lot to “Danny Rand” as a character.
  • “Danny” does something kinda messed up which I’ll get into tomorrow
  • The best characters on the show are characters we already met
  • The action isn’t great. It’s not terrible, but especially after “Daredevil” you expect more
  • “Iron Fist” seemed to have to do the “heavy lifting” as far as setting up “The Defenders” show. Bottom line, it’s not great but it’s pretty good. Nowhere near as bad as critics have rated it.

Tomorrow Luscious Trapp replaces Apex and Quickie. Then Hazard Hands tries to figure out one specific criticism about his show. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

I’m very tired so I’m going to try and keep this short. There’s been a lot of talk about what Hilary or the Democratic party did wrong during this election.  I think this is a mistake. As I mentioned before I think this is more about “the cycle” where every 8 years we switch from one party to the opposite. Simply put, when we come out and vote we win. When we don’t we don’t.

Tomorrow Lous and Mr. Mystic talk to Proud Lion about a job he had. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

I went back and forth on whether I was going to do this or not. At the end of the day I felt this election was too important not to address, plus once I got the idea to have all the characters together I really couldn’t resist going for it. The rest speaks for itself. Tomorrow we go back to “normal” (in the very loosest sense of the word) comics. Hope you enjoy, go vote, and see ya then!
