Marvel Fatigue?

What If… Wanda Maximoff and Peter Parker were Siblings? by Seanan McGuire

by Leave a Comment

I don’t know her.  Marvel has had me in their grip since I was a little smidge reading Power Pack. I’ve seen every movie and show except, ironically, the animated What If… series. I might have to rectify that now. When I saw Seanan McGuire was the author. I could not resist. She knows Marvel and most especially the Spiderverse. The story basically flows right from the title. We meet Wanda as a young adult wishing to join the Avengers, and then spin back in […]

The first review of 2024 and it’s an odd one

Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales: Poster Collection by Insomniac Games

by 1 Comment

My first review of 2024 will be an odd one. It is a poster collection for Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. I know of two cartoon movies about Miles Morales and that is it. Of course, I assumed there were graphic novels, books (as I had seen some for the juvenile level), video/computer games and mentions of him in other places. However, I was unfamiliar with anything else but the cartoons. However, on my first day back to work after my New Year long weekend (or […]

I said to myself this weekend: What did I do to log myself out of my Simon and Schuster account of free ebooks? Of course, who knows what the password is as it is the only one that I have not put on my list of passwords (hiding in my hidden spot). So, what is a poor girl to do? Go old school with wonderful and amazing in your hand reader copies! Book one was Book Buddies V01 Ivy Lost and Found created by Cynthia […]

A love story I could really get behind

by 2 Comments

The final item of my Deadpool birthday goodies (that I’ve been stringing out since May), pretty much every moment of this was an absolute blast, so much so that I’ve already put the remaining volumes on my Christmas wishlist. In Volume 1: Isn’t It Bromantic, we find Deadpool wooing Spiderman in the hopes of them becoming BFFs. There’s nothing he won’t do to win Spidey over, including tricking Thor into a double-date (resulting in a Ladies Night to remember at the Hellhouse club), but there’s […]

There’s a New Web-Slinging Hero in Town

by Leave a Comment

Silk is one of the highly-anticipated (by me, anyways) new titles to come out of the Spider-Verse event. Penned by Supernatural writer Robbie Thompson and drawn by Stacey Lee, this comic introduces Cindy Moon as the new web-slinging superhero of New York. But don’t worry Parker fans, Peter is still around, and occasionally fights crime beside Silk, despite her best efforts to avoid him.

When Good Superheros Go Rogue

I have a confession to make. Please don’t judge me for this, but before I saw The Avengers I didn’t know anything about Marvel Comics. I hadn’t seen any of the other movies yet. I’d heard about them, of course, but they never interested me enough to really make the effort to see them. After The Avengers, though, I made a point to watch them all and now own most of them. I eagerly read each piece of news about the new movies as they […]
