Senior Editor, Writer   Lifelong film fanatic, Mark Salcido was discovered frozen in carbonite by C.H.U.Ds. He was released to the surface level to spread his rants and opinions on anything of film and digital. Batman calls him for advice.

In the same day where Kevin Conroy revealed his favorite live action Batman, the actor also revealed his thoughts on Heath Ledger’s Joker – as well as co-star Mark Hamill’s. We were lucky enough to be in attendance of the panel at Stan Lee’s LA Comic Con (that we will have full audio of shortly), and here’s what the actor had to say: “Mark Hamill, I thought was “hands down” the most incredible Joker. But then we saw what Heath Ledger did, and wow this just a crazy amount of crazy. He’s not better than Mark but he’s just another…

When it comes to talking Batman, (or anything really) Kevin Conroy has never been one to hold back. He recently criticized Republican Presidential Nominee Donald Trump and also criticized Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, mainly because of Batman killing in the film: “In the most recent live action movie, that seems to have been a line that was crossed and it’s not one I’m particularly comfortable with.” He’s also criticized Christian Bale’s Batman voice, but at a recent panel we attended at Stan Lee’s LA Comic Con (that we will have full audio of shortly), Conroy was asked who…

We’re currently attending Stan Lee’s Los Angeles Comic Con, in particular, a panel with Mike Colter and Stan Lee, and Colter was just asked some very interesting questions. The topic of whether or not Luke Cage thinks of himself as a black superhero came up – and here’s what Colter had to say on the subject: “Luke Cage doesn’t think of himself as a black superhero, he thinks of himself as a superhero who happens to be black.” Obviously, given the show’s subject matter and things that have been going on as of late, this is a very hot subject.…

We’re currently attending Stan Lee’s Los Angeles Comic Con, in particular a panel with Mike Colter and Stan Lee, and he was just asked some very interesting questions. When specifically asked what he thought of DC, here’s what he had to say: Trying to put me on the spot here. I know there’s some closet DC fans around here. DC and Marvel are always about entertainment, right? And what’s great about DC and Marvel [is] it’s like any great rivalry. We’re trying to push the other one to excellence. DC is always thinking of a new way to challenge Marvel…

One reason that Marvel’s TV and Movies haven’t crossed over is because some of the characters just don’t fit the tone. They would also be way overmatched against a villain like Thanos – but isn’t Black Widow as well? Or Hawkeye? That’s obviously a debate for another article. While speaking at Stan Lee’s Los Angeles Comic Con, Mike Colter shared similar thoughts in regards to whether or not Luke Cage would fight Punisher or Daredevil. More specifically, who he’d rather fight out of the two. His response? “Well, it’s not fair to spar with any of those guys because it…

We’re currently attending Stan Lee’s Los Angeles Comic Con, in particular, a panel with Mike Colter and Stan Lee, and Colter was just asked some very interesting questions. We all would like to see Marvel’s TV shows officially cross over with Marvel’s movies, but whether or not that will happen, remains to be seen. It’s still interesting to think about, though. Colter was asked which Marvel character in the MCU he’d like to work with if given a chance – and here’s what he had to say: That’s a good question I mean everyone wants to work with Captain America or…

In the blue corner is Disney’s Lucasfilm and in the red corner is the owner of Lightsaber Academy, Michael Brown. A trademark lawsuit was brought to Brown for operating his teachings of the force.

Airline traveling. There are so many factors that come along with making a safe and enjoyable journey. Not just for the passenger, but also for the staff and crew. In a story reported today by Gizmodo, this flight travel is just ridiculous. Freelance e-sport reporter Amanda Stevens was en route to report at the Chicago League of Legends quarterfinals when Stevens was asked to remove their hat and shirt because it made the pilot “uncomfortable”. It must’ve been something horribly offensive, right? Nope. It was a baseball cap with Marvel’s Black Panther printed on it and an ASAP ROCKY…
