Image Courtesy of Marvel Comics Marvel Comics has been the name in superhero for decades now. Their distinguished competition struck first in the Golden Age, setting the standards for the superhero (Captain America, Human Torch, and Namor were all big, but not Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman big), but Marvel would hit back in the Silver […]
Airing from 1990-96, Captain Planet and the Planeteers— a show where a planet-Earth-themed superhero appeared from the combined power of five magic rings created by the Spirit of Earth and given to a pointedly diverse cast of teenagers so that they could fight baddies such as oil drillers, radioactive men, and corrupt business moguls— is […]
Boba Fett is undeniably the coolest character in the Star Wars original trilogy. In fact, I think it’s safe to say that for all the mainline movies.

Even though Glen Powell might be venturing into space as Nova, the actor has previously portrayed one of the most well-known Americans in space, and the ordeal left him feeling ill. There’s been some educated speculation that Powell could play Richard Rider, a human member of the Nova Corps and possibly the MCU’s next major […]
