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…

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.

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…
