    Comics to help improve English and Writing

    There's an idea that's drilled into a lot of people's heads about how to get better at writing: read more. And it's true, reading more makes you more familiar with sentence structure, can expand your vocabulary, and teach storytelling techniques (even if you don't exactly know the names of the...

    The X-Files

    I just started watching the original X-Files recently (was too scared of the theme song as a kid), and it is outstanding. It's been a week and I'm just starting season 4 now.

    4th Wall Breaking

    She Hulk is, hands down, the best one. She breaks the 4th wall, but not in the same kind of silly ways that others (*cough* Deadpool) do.

    Comic books for 10-year-olds

    Okay, so lets say someone asked you for your recommendation for a comic book or graphic novel for a 10-year-old. Something that's not too graphic or gory, but also something that isn't going to feel like a "Kids" comic (because all 10-year-olds seem to want is grown up things). What would you...

    Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

    I loved the TMNT comics! I also listened to a podcast last year that went into a lot of detail about the history of the characters. The link to that is here.

    Ex-Heroes

    With a community that loves superheroes and comics, I read a great series of books not too long ago called Ex-Heroes. It's all about these original superheroes protecting the innocent during the zombie apocalypse, and it mostly takes place in L.A. It was a great read for me and I would love to...

    Captain Marvel

    I loved that at the end. She knew she didn't have anything to prove by fighting him without her powers, so she just took him down. Wonderful.

    All-Star Superman Discussion Thread (Spoilers)

    I agree, it's an outstanding story all on its own. The tie-ins make it better, sure, but they're not needed.

    Rewatch/Replay

    TV show: Young Justice has a lot of rewatch value. Movie: Jaws is infinitely re-watchable Comic book: mine would have to be New Avengers: Breakout

    Comic Books for Kids

    I enjoy people getting impaled with a magic sword or having holes burned through their head with heat vision as much as anyone, trust me. But, it's not always the best stuff to give to a child (or so I'm told). So, with that in mind, what would you say are probably the best comics for kids to...

    Black Myth: Wu Kong

    I don't know if anyone on here has seen this or is interested in it, but if this game can deliver on what it promises to be, this is going to be beyond outstanding. Sun Wu Kong is such a unique and powerful character, I'm not-so-patiently waiting for more info on this game and to get a copy.

    Venom 2 and Toxin Appearance

    I don't think Toxin would show up, or I hope not. One of the problems with the first film was that it was so difficult to tell where Venom ended and Riot began, they looks so similar. I would be worried that, since Carnage is supposed to be in the next film, the same would happen with him and...

    DC Comics for Beginners

    I've loved comics since I was a kid, and the past decade has been a wonderful ride as comic book characters are bigger than ever. However, I will admit, I'm not in good company with my friends, most of whom don't really read comics. A few of them have tried, but you really get a sense of how...

    Characters We Need To See In Spider-Man 2 (PS5)

    The easy answers for me would be Mysterio and Venom, but I would also love some lesser known villains. Obviously not as the main threat, but imagine having to go through a series of traps built by the Tinkerer? Or have a confusing fight with the Spot?

    This sounds weird, but . . . a girl in California wrote a Marvel Musical during COVID

    That's awesome! Well done, using the downtime of COVID to do something so productive and enjoyable.
