From Marvel to DC, Geeks explores the popular and independant comic titles in the geek universe.
The Marvels
When I reviewed Captain Marvel, I didn’t want to just say, “Hey, this film is bad and here are the bad parts.” I wanted to break down why it didn’t work from a storytelling perspective. More so that others don’t make the mistake and perhaps in the hope that maybe the writer of the film would read the review or at least so the point got back to her.

C2E2 2024 Review
This past weekend, Chicago's annual Entertainment and Comic Expo took place at the McCormick Place convention center. C2E2, a three-day celebration of all things geeky and fun, ran from April 26th to 28th, drawing fans from across the globe to indulge in their favorite fandoms from movies, TV, and anime. While C2E2 spanned three exciting days, my family and I were only able to attend for one day. It was my first time at C2E2, and it was also the first fan event of this scale for my 9-year-old. With so much to see and do, we couldn't cover everything or meet everyone on our list, but the experiences we did have were truly memorable and incredibly enjoyable.

The Unbreakable Bonds Between 3 Men
Friendship is a cornerstone theme in many narratives, including the realm of anime and manga. In the world of One Piece, friendships forged between characters often serve as driving forces for the storyline's progression. Among these friendships, the dynamic between Monkey D. Luffy, the protagonist, and his crewmates Zorro and Sanji stands out as particularly noteworthy. While both Zorro and Sanji share deep bonds with Luffy, there exists a compelling argument that Zorro's friendship with Luffy surpasses that of Sanji's. This article delves into the nuances of these relationships, exploring the qualities that make Zorro and Luffy's bond distinctively stronger than that of Sanji and Luffy.

MCU Rewatch
As a companion podcast to our An Idea of All Time podcast where we are starting off by watching Shang-Chi: The Legend of the Ten Rings every week for 10 months, we have also decided to rewatch all of the current MCU movies in chronological order. We have now watched the first two Iron Man movies, because apparently we went from Iron Man 1 straight to Iron Man 2 and I think that was a poor decision for many reasons but lets go ahead and get into it.

My Mind Is Blown #5. Content Warning.
Part #1 Part #2 Part #3 Part #4 Final Warning: Spoilers Ahead! Holy crap! This episode was nothing like I expected. Knowing that this is the last episode before the major three-part episode "Tolerance is Extinction," I expected things to be somber. Pretty much, I thought this episode would be a memorial of sorts to those lost during the Genosha Genocide, with a little reveal to help it transition to the next episode.

MCU Rewatch
As a companion series to An Idea of All Time my husband and I decided to rewatch all of the MCU movies in chronological order. This serves several purposes; 1) there is going to be a bit of an MCU drought for the next year as far as new releases go. 2) We want to properly place Shang-Chi in the MCU not just ranking it by quality but contextualizing it based on the existing universe. 3) We want to analyze how many of Shang-Chi’s problems are project specific and how many are MCU bred. So in addition to watching Shang-Chi every week we will be watching another MCU movie every week. We are of course starting with Iron Man.
