Does This Cape Make Me Look Vulnerable?
An animated, fashion icon once told her incredible client that she does not do capes...darling. At best, the superhero cape is window dressing. If a cape could help you fly, then you'd see birds wearing them. If it made you faster, then you'd see cheetahs wearing them (or maybe the animals that a cheetah chases). Sometimes, wearable items like capes become part of the fashion even though they have no utility whatsoever, like silk ties and shoulder pads. A good case could be made that you want to say no to the cape if you are seriously contemplating a run at the whole superhero thing.

Why Wonderwoman Challenged Hollywood
As we get ready for the fabled Snyder Cut of Justice League, being released this month on HBO MAX, I can't help but wonder if it would have made a difference at the box office. I'm equally excited to see this new cut because the previews make it look like it will go places that the original theatrical release did not go. D.C. characters have a long and storied history, going back to the first appearance of Superman in Action Comics.

The Snyder Cut is Coming. Top Story - March 2021.
Prepare Yourself for...Something We are less than a month away from The Snyder Cut of Justice League's release on HBO Max. As we speak, there is probably another story getting prepared for release with more teaser photos or spoilers, as that's the way it's been weekly for the last few months. There has been so much hype, time, and effort spent on this movie that it will be the worst misstep since Batman V Superman, no wait, Harley Quinn, or maybe the plot of Wonder Woman 1984, or it will be the greatest superhero movie ever and seemingly one of the greatest films in recent times. While I’m not sure that it’s going to impress many on any level, it no doubt does have its significance.

It's Time For a Live Action Gay Superhero
On first impression, you might not expect me to be much of a fan of superheroes and their high budgeted films however, those who know me fairly well know that I actually love superheroes – especially the Marvel movies! I’ve watched almost every Marvel project at least once by now and I’m still not tired of the action! Comics books on the other hand aren’t really my thing, so I’m not super familiar with the backgrounds of characters outside of their respective movies or tv shows.

In Light Of WandaVision Hype... Let Me Crush Your Dreams
Wanda Maximoff; a character we all love and is known by many, a woman who is the face of one of the majorly important superhero team The Avengers, the daughter of the metal-bending holocaust survivor Magneto, a woman who does nothing but fights for what she most believes in even if goes against everything she knows. Wanda Maximoff; The incredibly powerful mutant that’s given the scarlet, or chaos magic that aids her in fighting major demons of her own and the rest of the Avengers, and gave her the name she’s built her entire legacy underneath -- The Scarlet Witch. She is known in the mcu (Marvel Cinematic Universe) verse as the blonde with the face of Elizabeth Olsen, an incredible actor yet incredibly wrong for taking the role. Why, you may ask? In the comics, her original form and where she initially came from, she is both Romani and Jewish-- completely separating her from Elizabeth Olsen, completely separating her from the character the MCU built off of Wanda Maximoff, a white, christian woman.

The Great Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne Debate
Known around the world in both the world of reality and their own fictional Earth (and, technically, galaxy), these two share the similarity of being insanely rich, corporate owning superheroes. In fact, some terminology of the initial ‘superhero’ may not even fit them, but that’s what people usually think of first. Two separate human beings apart of two different universes, though people compare them more times than two people have ever been compared before. Of course, specifying on their movie counterparts while also including bits of their comic verses. But, here’s the thing that no one has ever thought of, aside from the constant comparisons-- the two share more differences than ever. Tony Stark and Bruce Wayne have constantly been brought to light as the same person through their own universe, but here’s the thing. They are more different than they are the same, and this essay is to prove exactly that, here to prove that their differences separate them more than a protagonist and their faithful, ever so faithful, antagonist (that made the story exactly what it needs to be).

WandaVision: A History Of 'White Vision' In The Comics, And What It Might Mean For The MCU
WARNING: SPOILERS for WandaVision episode 8, 'Previously On..' WandaVision's penultimate episode, 'Previously On..' included quite a few big reveals. Among them was the reveal that, contrary to the claims made by Tyler Hayward in episode 5, Wanda Maximoff never stole Vision's body. It was Hayward and S.W.O.R.D who had truly defied Vision's living will, attempting to revive him for use as a weapon.
