MARVEL_NOW

 

The fine folks over at Marvel comics have begun their latest wide scale initiative known as Marvel NOW!

What is Marvel NOW!, you might ask? well its a wide scale refresh (NOT reboot) of the Marvel universe as a whole, putting a lid on about 10 years worth of stories and opening a fresh new jar of kick ass for comics readers new and old everywhere.To put it simply, Marvel NOW! is a refresh of several of the ongoing series of Marvels long running comic books featuring some of their most iconic characters. Marvel comics are undergoing a creative refresh, following the conclusion of the 2012 Summer mega-event series Avengers Vs. X-men. Old chapters are concluded and new chapters are just beginning, with brand new writers on brand new books, a few new heroes introduced and the old heroes we love so much getting a much needed modern day update.

Marvel NOW! picks up from where Avengers vs. X-Men left off, with the mutant race formerly at the brink of extinction, and now facing a reemergence of new mutants world wide, we have different sides and factions trying their best to survive and make sense of this new world. This initiative doesn’t just cover the mutant phenomenon, with this revolution, old characters are given a new lease on life and new characters (both hero AND villain) are slowly rising up.
Marvel is dusting off the thinking caps and giving everyone new story lines to look forward to!

Its literally Marvel NOW!

Amazing Spider-Man official Trailer 3D

February 7, 2012 4:23 am ⋅ Leave a Comment ⋅

Yesterday saw the premiere of The Avengers trailer during the Superbowl, and today we get the premiere full length trailer for Marc Webb’s The Amazing Spider-man reboot. At first, I really wasn’t too keen on this movie; you could say I was cautiously optimistic, but after this trailer I’m extremely hyped! This movie looks gorgeous! Spidey has never been this animated before, not even in the Sam Raimi/Tobey Macguire days. I really like where this is going, plus we finally get are first quick glimpses of The movies villain Doctor Curt Connors aka The Lizard.

The Amazing Spider-Man opens in theaters July 3rd this Summer.

In case you missed it, here is the just premiered Superbowl trailer for The Avengers. So far this is the most action packed trailer we’ve gotten. We get fantastic shots of Tony Stark/Ironman in action fighting off alien invaders, Thor and Captain America defending the earth, quick shots of explosions and fight scenes accompanied by Hawkeye and Black Widow kicking ass, the hulk smashing shit up and of course Nick Fury being an all round bad ass.

Loki: I have an Army

Tony Stark: We have a Hulk

The Avengers, First Full Length Trailer

October 11, 2011 4:39 pm ⋅ Leave a Comment ⋅

After having numerous Marvel movies light up our screens and treat our imaginative taste buds to unique scenarios that we wouldn’t normally have in the small space of our backyard, Marvel has been kind enough once again to hit us with the trailer for The Avengers.
Of course you definitely were expecting this one. Why d’you think we’ve had Iron Man, Thor, Captain America come to us with so much vibrancy in their respective timelines and worlds? They’ve been prepping up for this glorious moment where they (and their respective allies) come together to fight battles that the people normally couldn’t fight before.

Enough jibber-jabber… feast your eyes on the wonders of the Marvel Universe;

I spy Black Widow, and I can’t say how happy I am to see Scarlett Johanssen again. She didn’t get enough ‘airtime’ in Iron Man 2 to show off properly what she’s capable of doing. Ultimate Universe’s Nick Fury is here also, in the flesh as Samuel L. Jackson… and from this trailer he has a very integral role. I can’t think of anything besides super goodness to expect from this, and I’m eager to know the villains (no way it can just be one right?).
Release date is May 2012, so after April Fool’s Month prepare to get punched.

Ultimate Spider-Man Reborn

August 2, 2011 5:22 pm ⋅ Leave a Comment ⋅

Anyone following Detanfy on twitter (judiciously) would know about his one-day hiatus from everything online when the last issue of Ultimate Comics Spider-Man ‘Death Of Spider-Man’ was released. His reason was a very logical one… he didn’t want any spoilers from other net-savvy users who wouldn’t care less what the other guy thought about spoilers. And that’s a good thing, the hiatus part I mean.
