Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #78

Blind Fury On Teasers, Trailers, & Directive Counterbalance

ccc-27-blindfuryMan that “Defenders” show is going to be nuts!  So far “Marvel’s” got 2 A+ shows on “Netflix” with “Daredevil” and “Jessica Jones”, and “Luke Cage” is looking pretty sweet from the teaser released at “SanDiego Comic-Con”.  The “Iron Fist” teaser doesn’t really show enough to form much of an opinion about it though. If only we got a “Netflix” “Ghost Rider” show instead of him being on “Agents Of Shield” next season and being completely ruined.

Then there’s that new “Dr. Strange” trailer. Honestly it’s a toss up between that and the “Wonder Woman” trailer as to which is better, but the joke at the of the “Dr. Strange” trailer is the best.

Tomorrow The Minstrel, Jade Archer, & Quicker discuss Jade Archer’s frustrations and their respective TV shows and movie. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Special-Man, Freedom Female, & The Good Knight On Special-Man’s Treatment In Movies

ccc-63-specialmanfreedomfemalegoodknight

So last week was “San Diego Comic-Con” where every comic book related (and a lot of stuff that isn’t) thing showed off teasers, trailers, and info of all types.  Arguably the biggest thing was the release of the first trailer for “Justice League”.  Gotta say not looking great… The trailer has little action and look colorless like the last few “DC” movies.  Also there’s a scene that’s has been sold SUPER hard as showing how “light” the movie is suppose to be with “Batman” (acting a LOT like “Nick Fury”) recruiting “The Flash” (whose costume looks dumb) and it’s nothing special.

What did look pretty good was the “Wonder Woman” trailer.  There’s actually some decent action and humor and the lasso looks pretty damn cool.

Another thing that happened last week was “Batman V Superman: Ultimate Edition” was released.  I saw it and it is actually better. Only marginally though. It’s less “jumpy” and some things are made clearer.  A lot of those things aren’t important though.

Tomorrow Blind Fury talks about teasers for his show and The Defense Squad among other things. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #76 The Innovator On The Smasher

The Innovator On The Smasher 

ccc-66.2-theinnovator

Anyone who’s not a kid or a rube knows that no major characters ever stay dead in comics. The worst thing about killing the “Hulk” is that there was no tension leading up to it.  It just felt like “okay this is what we’re doing for issue 3 ( of “Civil War II”)”. Give the “Hulk” a final rampage, or something huge to fight. Don’t just kill “Banner” basically out of nowhere and end it with that.

That’s how characters always die in comics now. They just suddenly get killed in some event. Then they come back. Rinse repeat. I guess what I’m trying to say is make deaths count.  I don’t care that the character is certainly coming back.  I watch “Dragonball” (which is usually pretty great about making deaths matter despite the fact characters ALWAYS get wished back). Just make remind me why the character is cool and let them do something awesome before they die.

That’s it for this week. New “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” Tuesday-Thurday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Ms. Majors On Reports On The Death Of The Smasher

ccc-11-msmajors

So “Marvel” has this new version of the “Hulk”, “Totally Awesome Hulk”.  He’s this character “Amadeus Cho” who’s super smart or something.  I don’t know much about him.  Part of “Marvel’s” plans after “Civil War II” is to take a bunch of the younger characters ( “Cho”, “Miles Morales”, “Ms. Marvel”, “Nova”, etc.) and put them together as a new version of “The Champions”.

I also touched on the “Kanye/Kim/Taylor Swift” thing and I don’t even care enough to get into it.

Tomorrow The Innovator talks about The Smasher. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Spider is at it again, and again things don’t go well for them.  Here we meet this world’s version of “Nick Fury”, Dick Anger.  Figured since “Marvel” eventually made “Nick Fury” Black I’d just start with him being Black. All of the panels of this comic are based on the work of Jim Steranko, and specifically…

Next time there is a great search for a man known as “The Virtuoso”.  Check out new “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations” on Tuesday-Thursday. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Wing-Man On Possibly Taking America-Man’s Mantle

ccc-73-wingman

Now in “Marvel” there’s is or will be 2 “Captain Americas”, “Thors”, “Spider-Men”, and “Iron Men” at the same time.  That seems confusing from a branding perspective as well as within the “Marvel” universe itself. If someone yells out “Captain America” in a battle you don’t want 2 guys responding.  All of these choices were to help promote diversity which is admirable, but I really wish “Marvel” would just put the time and effort into creating entirely new characters, and using characters that already exist.  This is what they did with “Luke Cage”.  They got rid of the yellow shirt and the headband, and started using him.  Now he’s got a show coming out on “Netflix” after being part of the “Jessica Jones” show (which is based on the comic “Alias” where “Luke Cage” started being used again and gaining popularity).

“The Falcon” is awesome in the movies. So why not make the comic version of him more like the movie one? That’s what they did with “Nick Fury”. Anyways that’s it for this week.  Next week starts off with a “The History Of Comics With Q-boy” where America-Man is called in for a rescue mission and we meet the man known as Dick Anger.

Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations #72 Ms. Majors On Proteges

Ms. Majors On Proteges

ccc-11-msmajors

In “Marvel” the current “Captain Marvel” is “Carol Danvers” who use to be “Ms. Marvel”. The current “Ms. Marvel” is a young Pakastani girl named “Kamala Kahn” who is also an “Inhuman” (cuz’ you can’t throw a rock without hitting one of them nowadays). There’s also “Monica Rambeau” who is a black woman (she now goes be “Spectrum”) who was “Captain Marvel” who I kinda combined with “Carol Danvers” for “Ms. Majors”.

All that is to say there’s a lot going on with the “Captain Marvel” and “Ms. Marvel” names. (And that’s without getting into the original “Captain Marvel” in “Marvel” who was a “Kree” spy or something that died of cancer or “DC’s” “Captain Marvel” which is now “Shazam” orginally created by “Fawcett Comics”).  I actually think making “Carol Danvers” into “Captain Marvel” is one of the few times where giving a character the mantle of another pre-existing character actually worked.  “Ms. Marvel” had a lot a baggage and “Captain Marvel” had been long forgotten at this point.

Tomorrow Wing-Man discusses when the possibility of taking the mantle of America-Man. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

The Innovator On Rumors He’s Being Replaced

ccc-66.2-theinnovator

It seems like the plan after “Marvel’s” current big event “Civil War II” is that a lot of the major characters are going to disappear (die?) and new/ lesser known characters are going to take their place.  One of the biggest examples is that new  “Iron Man” is suppose to be a 15 year old Black girl named “Riri Williams”.  Yep I think it is actually “Iron Man” and not some female version of the name. I think making her 15 makes it unrealistic even for a comic.  “Marvel” really has a a thing for having 2 characters sharing a name lately, but that’s something I think I’ll get into later.

Tomorrow Ms. Majors discusses being and having a protege. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!

Family is a weird thing with “Goku”. The only family he every really has as a kid is “Grandpa Gohan” (who he unknowingly kills when he turns into a giant ape during a full moon). The only blood relative he ever encounters kidnaps his son and “Goku” has to help “Piccolo” kill him. His race the “Saiyans” seem to have no concept of family. Children seem to be bred (strangely enough like how “Krytonians” are in “Man Of Steel”) and then they are sent to wipe out all life on planets as infants.

You can make a big stretch and say his teacher’s over time are like father figures, but they aren’t really. Pretty sad when the closest thing you have to a Dad is a perverted old hermit who lives alone on a tiny island.

Or the cat guy who lives alone on a top of a giant tower. Or the guy who lives even higher in the sky on a lookout above Earth. Or the guy who lives alone on a tiny planet in the afterlife. See the pattern… Isolation. “Goku” lives a pretty isolated life with extended periods where he is completely alone.

I’ve mentioned before how “Goku” takes pretty much any opportunity to abandon his family, and how messed up it was putting the pressure to beat “Cell” on “Gohan”, but he makes up for it by sacrificing himself right? Well here’s the thing… “Goku” could have easily escaped. “Goku” teleports “Cell” to “King Kai’s” planet and has over 30 seconds to teleport back to Earth (I believe this time was shortened in “Dragonball Z Kai” though). That may not sould like a lot of time. But in that time he talks to “King Kai” and just stands there for kind of a while. Check it out in this clip…

That’s it for this week. See ya next Tuesday-Thursday for more “Criminal And Crimefighter Conversations”. Hope you enjoy and see ya then!
