I think about things. Probably more than I ought to, but I do. Specifically, I tend to think about Superheroes a ton. One of my favorite past times, odd as it may seem, is thinking about either where I would go with DC properties in the media, or where existing ones are headed. To [...]
Yesterday, Marvel Entertainment released a brand new trailer for the upcoming Avengers film helmed by Joss Whedon. This trailer, the third they’ve released, ups the action again, giving us perhaps our best look to date at just what this film will be about. Now, it’s not a big secret that I’m a dyed-in-the-wool DC Comics [...]
