Here’s All the Crazy Shit Thor and the Hulk Have Been Up to Since the Last Time We Saw Them

Thor may not be the most interesting personality in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he’s apparently one of its busiest, considering that we haven’t seen the god of thunder since the end of Avengers: Age of Ultron. So what, exactly, has he been up to? When last we saw the Odinson, he was explaining to…

Thank God, Marvel’s Inhumans Doesn’t Have Plans to Ruin Ms. Marvel… Yet

We’d love to see Kamala Khan, the fabulous Ms. Marvel, come to Marvel’s slate of TV shows. Hell, we’d like to see it sooner rather than later, if we’re honest. But given how it looks like Inhumans has turned out, we’re glad to hear that the show currently doesn’t have plans to bring Kamala onboard.…

The 11 Best Fantastic Voyage Parodies on TV

Ever since 1966, has there been a better way to explore what ails the human body than the ridiculously unwieldy process of shrinking yourself down into a miniature spaceship and seeing it first-hand?

Peter Capaldi has to be one of the biggest fans to have ever taken on the mantle of the Doctor—and his very last season finale let him fulfill his wish of getting to face off against the original Mondasian Cybermen. But Capaldi ultimately had to let slide one quibble with the show’s take on the…

The Serenity of Hayao Miyazaki’s Films Is Perfectly Captured in These Posters

There are many great things about the films of Hayao Miyazaki. Just one of them is that if you happen to pause on seemingly any single frame, that image itself is a work of art. Artist Bill Mudron would probably agree. And, in fact, he takes the beauty of Miyazaki’s work a step further. He’s…

The Story of How Black Bolt Met Lockjaw Is Heartwarming and Heartbreaking

Though Saladin Ahmed’s ongoing Black Bolt series is, in the larger sense, a story about the Inhumans’ king escaping from an ancient super prison that’s hurtling through space, the comic has also spent a lot of time fleshing out parts of Black Bolt’s humanity that we seldom see because of his vow of silence. In…

How Get Out Inspired a New College Course on Racism and Horror

Like hundreds of thousands of other people around the world, Tananarive Due saw Get Out earlier this year.

The New Kingsman Comic Is Delightfully, Achingly British

And no, we’re not talking about the one about Brexit this time. That said, The Red Diamond, the official continuation of Mark Millar and Dave Gibbons’ original Kingsman: The Secret Service, is a teeny little bit about Brexit, too, because it’s hard to be British in 2017 without mentioning the damn thing.

Marvel’s Iceman Series Is Everything I Love and Hate About Coming Out Stories

It’s been interesting to watch Bobby Drake unsteadily make his way through life as a newly-out gay man in Sina Grace’s Iceman series. He’s very much the same Iceman who’s been cracking wise with the X-Men since the ’60s, and yet he’s also a vastly different Bobby who’s grappling with a new sort of emotional…

It Is a Great Movie That’s Much, Much More Than Just a Horror Flick

It’s been a long time coming to theaters, but It turns out to have been worth the wait. The cinematic adaptation of what is arguably Stephen King’s most famous novel is absolutely an excellent horror film, but its real success is how it exceeds just horror—it’s dramatic, funny, and, most impressively, has way more heart…

Rick and Morty is one of the smartest shows on TV—and crafting the adventures of the dysfunctional duo can be a challenging and arduous process (part of which is why season three took so long to premiere).
