A New Back to the Future Comic Will Explain One of Part III‘s Most Mysterious Lines

At the end of Back to the Future Part III, Marty asks Doc if he and his newly revealed family will be going back to the future. “Nope, already been there,” Doc answers, as his train lifts off the ground with a hover conversion he presumably got on that trip and flies away. It’s the…

Black Panther’s Origins Will Be Explored in a New Comic by io9’s Evan Narcisse, a Guy We Know

io9 senior writer Evan Narcisse has been writing about comics for over a decade, but over the past several months, you may have noticed his thoughtful essays on the Big Two comics publishers are missing. That’s because Evan has gone from writing about comics to writing one himself—namely, Rise of the Black Panther, a new…

The Most Intriguing and Important Details the New Star Wars Anthology Revealed About a Galaxy Far, Far Away

From a Certain Point of View, the new Star Wars anthology novel released to celebrate 40 years of the beloved franchise, is unlike any other book we’ve seen so far in Disney’s Star Wars canon. It’s all about the little details rather than the major events of the movies—but that doesn’t there aren’t a few…

This Week’s X-Men: Gold Is a Reminder of How Fantastic Marvel’s Mutants Used to Be

For the past few months, X-Men: Gold and X-Men: Blue have been trying to recenter Marvel’s mutant super teams by getting them back into the sorts of wild adventures that made the X-Men famous. Nostalgia for the good old days when the X-Men were Marvel’s bread and butter has been one of the subtle through…

Charlie’s Angels Are Finally Getting the Comic Book They Deserve

Can you believe that it’s only been six years since ABC tried to bring Charlie’s Angels back to network television before canceling the (admittedly terrible) reboot a mere three episodes into the season? Yeah, me neither. As luck would have it, though, the angels are about to make a comeback. Next year, comics publisher Dynamite…

Neil Gaiman’s Sherlock Holmes/Cthulhu Mashup A Study in Emerald Is Being Turned Into a Comic

Despite being a potent mix of beloved author Neil Gaiman, Sherlock Holmes, and the mind-twisting world of H.P. Lovecraft, A Study in Emerald has somehow managed to largely escape adaptation since Gaiman first wrote it back in 2003. Dark Horse is finally going to be changing that next year. Announced by Dark Horse in advance…

Catwoman Has Finally Decided Whether She’s Going to Marry Batman or Not

Certain people just can’t seem to stay apart for too long.

Apparently Boba Fett Is Around For Everything, All the Time

Everyone loves Boba Fett. He’s the coolest looking bounty hunter in the galaxy. Paramount among his fans, however, seems to be Star Wars creators who continually put the bounty hunter on the periphery of seemingly ever major Star Wars story there is. We already knew that Boba Fett was going to get a new story…

The Justice League and Power Rangers Bring Out the Best in Each Other

Comic book events often rely on a narrowly defined idea of “edgy coolness” to convey a sense of import to the story they’re trying to tell. It’s not enough that the world’s ending—everything’s gotta be gritty and dark. But DC and Boom Studios’ Justice League/Power Rangers crossover is fueled by something else: the power of…

Neal Adams Did a Radio Play of Batman vs. Elmer Fudd, and It’s as Awesome as the Original Comic

Comics artist Neal Adams might be famous for his versions of Superman and Batman, but now he has a new obsession: hunting wabbits. He’s released an audio drama based on his new favorite comic book, DC’s strange but brilliant Batman vs. Elmer Fudd. It somehow manages to be even weirder than the source material, not…

The New DuckTales Comic Is Missing Some Vital Ingredients From the Show

This week saw the launch of IDW and Disney’s brand new DuckTales comic, based on the newly-returned—and utterly fantastic—animated series. It’s a great way to squeeze a little extra Duckburg goodness into your week between episodes. But so far, it’s missing some of the elements that’s made the new show so great. Now, to be…

Marvel’s Superheroes Are on Hookup Apps and Hate It Just Like Everyone Else

Comic book relationships have always been kind of cheesy, charming throwbacks to the good old days when people married their high school sweethearts or had random meet-cutes, like, on the subway. While those things do still happen, dating in the 21st century means that you’re probably on an app, and the same is now true…

My Captain America Was Black and He Deserved a Better Send-Off Than Marvel’s Legacy

When Sam Wilson became the new Captain America back in 2014, it felt like the organic evolution of Marvel’s two most iconic US patriots. As a then-elderly Steve Rogers passed his shield and duties on to his longtime friend, Sam became a more sharply defined, empowered version of the hero he’d always been. As Falcon,…

It’s Time for the X-Men’s Stories About Discrimination to Evolve

In May of 1963, thousands of black protestors—many of them school children—marched on Birmingham, Alabama to draw attention to the city’s entrenched segregation. Later that year in September, Marvel would publish the very first issue of The X-Men, a series clearly influenced by the Civil Rights Movement. Though the Civil Right Movement had been well…
