Why Marvel’s Daredevil is the Perfect Place to Introduce the Punisher into the MCU
Word of warning: there may be some spoilers for season 1 of Daredevil in here. Season 2 of Daredevil is upon us and if season 1 is anything to go by, it is going to be good. Daredevil was a huge success for both Marvel and Netflix. I even know quite a few people who got a Netflix account exclusively to watch the show. The 13 episode timeframe allowed the story to develop at a steady pace. The writers obviously had a clear idea of how they wanted to tell the story and stuck to their guns. The Kingpin was a huge part of the series (with an incredible performance from Vincent D'Onofrio) and he was not introduced on screen until the very end of episode 3. His presence was certainly felt and his story almost mirrored Matt Murdock's. Both men seek to save their city, but they have very different ideas about how to do this. With the Kingpin behind bars (for now, you know what TV shows are like) where could the show go from here?

Did the Latest Flash Episode Give Us a Huge Clue About the Identity of Savitar?
*Possible Spoilers* Hello internet. The latest episode of Flash was an emotional rollercoaster ranging from the fight between our favorite meta fighting duo to the big reveal that Draco Malfoy *surprise *surprise is Dr Alchemy. But the most important thing was a clue given about the identity of the god of motion Savitar that has given rise to these two theories of mine as to who it really is.

How Marvel Planned for the MCU in the 90s
I mentioned in my last article (yes it was a long time ago! I am slacking!) about how Marvel had a number of great animated series in the 90s and how they were all connected in their own shared universe. Basically I wanted to expand on that idea here.

Sophie Turner took over from Famke Janssen in the role of Jean Grey for Apocalypse, teasing that she will be the main player in the next film.

Spider-Man is Joining the MCU: Could We See Him In An Avengers Post-Credits Scene?
Spider-Man is finally coming home to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, pretty much anybody who has looked at my twitter feed for more than 5 minutes (if it even takes THAT long) will have worked out that this news makes me a very happy Alex indeed.

Batman Could Hang Up the Cowl After 'Justice League'
When Ben Affleck signed on to be a part of the DC Extended Universe, he became a pivotal cog in the entire production of the cinematic universe, not only as the next iteration of the Dark Knight himself. With a massive role in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice the once-penned-sequel to Man of Steel, along with major production roles behind the camera as producer to Justice League and writer/director/star in his own solo film, Affleck seemed as though he was ascending into the upper echelon of Hollywood elites.

We all waited for Deadpool. We all waited for Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice. We all waited for Captain America: Civil War. Now all we're waiting for is Suicide Squad.

Maya has amazingly kept her job despite also working with the others to help people and catch criminals. Things have been going well for them.
