I have to say, I didn’t know that these two were living together, but they make a great couple. I mean, if those two kids can make it happen, then there is hope for everybody out there… amiright? Seriously though, this is the only way to bring DP into the MCU and it should garner […]
A Look Back at Marvel’s Avengers Alliance
Greetings, True Believers! Today we take a look back at Marvel’s Avengers Alliance. September 30th marks the sixth anniversary of the final day of this wonderfully simple game. I still miss it. Marvel: Avengers Alliance was a turn-based social network game developed by Playdom in 2012. It is based on characters and storylines published by Marvel Comics and […]

Gather Round, Children of the Atom… The X-Men are Returning
Probably the most interesting news out of the Sandiego ComicCon is the reveal of the upcoming X-Men ’97 animated series. Being an X-Men fan from the 70s, and up, when the series premiered in 1992, I was ecstatic. Sure, I was 22 excited for a cartoon, but it was well written and had plenty of […]
X-Men ’92: House of XCII
No Spoilers: As an ardent fan of X-Men, The Animated Series from 1992, my high-level opinion of this new title is… fun! There are a few call-backs to old 70s/80s Uncanny X-Men that I found very pleasing. As a continuation of X-Men ’92, this takes a few cues from the current comics with enough of […]
Wolverine and the X-Men: The Best X-Men Series
Today, in the stationary mobile command cave, we are screening the first few episodes of Wolverine and the X-Men. This is a show that was pulled off of the air far before its time. Well animated, and perfectly plotted, the series took a new spin on an old favorite. It wasn’t a continuation of X-Men: The Animated […]
Epic Byrne: The Comic Art of John Byrne
Epic Byrne is my excuse to share art from my favorite artist of all time. You’ll note that I did not say “comic artist”. He is probably the reason I sampled other comics from the Fantastic Four, to Lab Rats. He is more that just an artist but also a wonderful writer. He’s a fan […]
Are the X-Men Making a Comeback on D+?
The Producer of The Classic X-MEN Animated Series Says He’s Had Talks with Disney+ About Reviving The Show GeekTyrant Well… let’s discuss. If I had my choice of a dropped X-Men property it would be Wolverine and the X-Men. It had a cleaner design and tighter story-line. I wouldn’t looks a gift horse in the […]
Early Character Designs for Bryan Singer’s X-MEN
It’s the 20th anniversary year of the first X-Men film so let’s look back at what might have been. These designs were created by Tim Flattery. My first impression was that these were pretty over designed but Cyclops and Jean’s (?) uniforms have a bit of an original 1963 call back vibe to them.. The […]
Getting Caught Up: Secret Wars (1984)
YouTube user, ComicIsland, tells the tale of the original Secret Wars. This wasn’t Marvels first cross-over event but it was the one that became the template for all cross-overs. This is a re-posting of my original article on the now defunctQuantum-Multiverse from 16 June, 2015.
