It's Marvel Monday and meet Marvel's most powerful hero! ABOUT CAPTAIN MARVEL Carol Danvers becomes one of the universe's most powerful heroes when Earth is caught in the middle of a galactic war between two alien races. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR CAPTAIN MARVEL March 8, 2019 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF CAPTAIN MARVEL Directors: Anna Boden, Ryan Fleck Writers: Anna Boden, Ryan Fleck, Geneva Robertson-Dworet Cast: Brie Larson as Carol Danvers/Captain Marvel Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS Carol Danvers is living her best amnesia life on the Kree homeworld of Hala under the name Vers. Got it? Good. She's got superpowers, cool space suits, and a mentor named Yon-Rogg who constantly tells her to stop feeling. The Kree government, which is basically run by a giant AI lady, insists that the evil shape-shifting Skrulls ruined her life and since Carol remembers absolutely nothing, so she just rolls with it. While on a mission to rescue a Kree spy, things immediately go sideways. The Skrulls capture Carol and start digging around in her memories, discovering that she used to be an Air Force pilot on Earth. Their leader Talos becomes very interested in a scientist named Dr. Wendy Lawson and a mysterious light-speed engine. Carol escapes before they get all the answers and crash-lands straight into a Blockbuster Video in 1995 Los Angeles. Her arrival gets the attention of a young Nick Fury, who still has two working eyes and spends most of this movie being confused. After a series of chases, explosions, and Skrulls impersonating anyone they want, Carol starts uncovering pieces of her past. She learns that she wasn't born on Hala at all—she was an Air Force pilot presumed dead after a crash years earlier. As Carol & Nick follow the breadcrumbs, she reconnects with her old friend Maria and Maria's daughter Monica, who are understandably shocked to discover their dead friend is actually a space superhero. Meanwhile, Talos finally reveals that the Skrulls aren't conquering villains at all—they're refugees looking for a home. Turns out the Kree may not have been entirely honest. The biggest bombshell comes when Carol remembers what really happened. Dr. Lawson was actually Mar-Vell, a Kree scientist secretly helping the Skrulls. Shes killed while taking control of an experimental energy source. Carol destroyed the engine to keep it from the Kree, absorbed its energy in the explosion, gained incredible powers, and then had her memories erased so the Kree could turn her into a weapon. The gang tracks down Mar-Vell's hidden space laboratory, where a bunch of Skrull refugees have been hiding. Unfortunately, Starforce shows up, the Kree try to reassert control, and Carol gets dragged before the Supreme Intelligence. She destroys the device limiting her powers and finally goes full Captain Marvel. What follows is a one-sided beatdown thanks to Captain marvel. With the Skrulls safe for the moment, Carol decides to head off into space to help them find a permanent home. Before leaving, she gives Fury a special pager for emergencies. Fury later loses his eye in an incident involving Goose - a cat who is actually an alien who is also holding the Tesseract in its tummy. Looking at Carol's old Air Force call sign, he lands on the perfect name: The Avengers Initiative. In the mid-credits scene, the pager goes off and Carol returns to Earth Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?

Even the classics can do with a fresh look once in a while....On this very special episode we're diving into what just might be the hottest new show of the season and it's gorgeous visual stylings. It's time for 'Spider-Noir'.Ben Reilly (Nicolas Cage), a seasoned, down-on-his-luck private investigator in 1930s New York, is forced to grapple with his past life, following a deeply personal tragedy, as the city's one and only superhero.Like a shot of adrenaline into a familiar franchise, 'Spider-Noir" couldn't have come at a better time and comes with some unique visual trappings that make it stand out from the rest. This show was shot so that it would like amazing not only color, but in Black and White as well....and contrary to popular belief there's more to it then flipping a switch or pressing a button.That's where cinematographers Darran Tiernan and Peter Deming come in. Both men were kind enough to sit down with me to talk about the in's and out's of shooting a show that is very much a love letter to the classics Film Noir's that looked amazing in both Color and B&W. We talked about all that and so very much more.'Spider-Noir' is available on Prime Video now.
This week we're introduced to ShonnyDman, a nerd who enjoys Marvel, DC…. the list goes on. He's especially talented at interviewing cosplay models who have nothing going on in their lives. And wait until he tries to tell us about an animated series he watched months ago and has mostly forgotten. Riveting! Doug from Good Times Great Movies joins the show to explain that Partyhardycosplay might be a moron. Gallagher and Artie Fletcher were in Wyoming promoting their comedy show on Z94 FM. Watching Gallagher lecture Artie for being terrible on the radio is way funnier than whatever they do on stage. Jerry Banfield is desperate for companionship and thinks that going out on lots of dates but never getting to date number 2 is actually a triumph! Especially because he's spent $10k on dating advice already this year. Opie has decided to add another anchor to his show in the form of Erik Marino. This guy is a DUD!!

Say it with me: It's Seeking Sunday! Ben here. Today, Jacques, Hesse, and I are back with another talk radio episode. Between playing some of our favorite tracks, we come up with an idea to take down Marvel and DC, discuss some wretched homosexual behavior directed at Zohran, and debate the evil (or perhaps freedom) of Klarna. Plus, we read a couple of selections from The Ethicist, the NYT's advice column for neurotic liberals. Submissions feature a trigger-happy lesbian and the question of what to do about those weird noises coming from a storage unit.
This Christian-leaning film directed by a martial arts expert preaches a confusing mix of liberal pro-science atheism and Christian deism that would be way more interesting if the fight scenes weren't such a slog. It's too bad because ABSOLUTE DOMINION has so much good going for it. Director Lexi Alexander has a genuinely interesting career and an obvious expertise and passion for combat sports. Her most notable film is possibly PUNISHER: WAR ZONE (2008), a commercial failure at the time that has since become a cult classic. She was notable for being the first female director of a Marvel franchise film, but the gritty and hyper-violent take on PUNISHER didn't land well with critics or audiences. Alexander had some famous defenders though -- comedian Patton Oswalt has repeatedly gone on record praising the film. It's probably not a coincidence that he and fellow celebrity fan Alex Winter both appear in ABSOLUTE DOMINION in supporting roles. We hypothesize that both jumped at the chance to support a new Lexi Alexander project with an interesting script. In ABSOLUTE DOMINION, Oswalt plays a fictional influencer/streamer named Fix Huntley who goes viral in the year 2085 AD pitching the idea for a worldwide martial arts tournament where the major world religions each send a champion to fight for religious dominance. In the war-torn dystopian future of 2085, society jumps at the chance for a civil Mortal Kombat-style tournament instead of scattered warfare and bloodshed. The three major world religions, Celestians, Pentotities, and Dashafaris, all send champions, but a last-minute rogue entry named Sagan Bruno steals the show. Sagan represents the Institute for Humanism in Science -- a perfect fighter born of a eugenics project, to a scientist mother and athlete father, neither of which have a relationship with him. Bruno quickly jumps to the top of the competition, but his worldview is rocked when blessings from a supernatural force begin to guide his combat. Could this force be none other than capital "G" God? Or is it just a miracle of logic and reason? It's too bad ABSOLUTE DOMINION couldn't stick the landing because it is undoubtedly a breath of fresh air in a sea of Christian movies with the exact same stereotypical evangelical perspective.

When Skybound announced M.A.S.K. would be joining the Energon Universe, fans immediately had questions. How would Matt Trakker and Miles Mayhem fit alongside Transformers, G.I. Joe, and Void Rivals? Out this week, we sat down with writer Dan Watters and artist Pye Parr to discuss updating the classic property, designing its iconic vehicles, and why M.A.S.K. offers a unique perspective within the larger Energon Universe. We're running the full uncut interview, featuring even more discussion on cool cars, character dynamics, action sequences, and what readers can expect from the series moving forward. Plus, we recap the biggest comics news of the week, share our favorite new releases, and much more. NEWS Absolute Catwoman #1 heads back to press as DC announces 'Absolute Cassandra Cain' one-shot MAD celebrates 600 issues with new material, classic favorites, and Sergio Aragonés cover Batman, Superman, and "Weird Al" Yankovic unite for DC's strangest team-up yet Marvel launches 'Amazing Venom' starring Boomerang's symbiote-powered comeback Marvel returns to the Mangaverse with five-part 25th anniversary event this September Marvel Zombies returns this September with Punisher leading a desperate fight for survival Spider-Woman's 50th anniversary special launches a darker new chapter for Jessica Drew The Rolling Stones team up with Marvel for exclusive ‘Foreign Tongues' vinyl collector series David Colton's growing power takes center stage in new look at 'Avengers: Armageddon' #4 and 'Cap' Dark Horse launches new oversized Marvel Black & White line with Barry Windsor-Smith's landmark Weapon X Daniel Warren Johnson's 'Beta Ray Bill' gets oversized Artist's Edition in 2027 ROM joins the Energon Universe in surprise comic hidden inside 'M.A.S.K.' #1 blind bags Mike Mignola returns to Hell with new two-issue Hellboy story alongside Cyrille Pomès Shredder gets extended!

Joe, Transformers, and its own thing. What aspects of the original property were most important to preserve, and where did you see opportunities to reinvent it for the Energon Universe? Matt Trakker's introduction is fascinating because he's being hunted by the military, yet it quickly becomes clear he wants to be captured. Why was that the right way to introduce him, and what does it reveal about who he is in this version of M.A.S.K.? Miles Mayhem comes across as both calculating and completely unhinged. His fear of Transformers and extraterrestrial threats gives him a very different motivation than a typical villain. What interested you about making him someone who might see himself as humanity's last line of defense? One of the most exciting ideas in M.A.S.K. has always been vehicles transforming into weapons and armor systems. Pye, what was the challenge of updating those iconic transformations for modern audiences while still capturing the toyetic fun fans expect? Dan, after writing Destro, what was appealing about tackling another corner of the Energon Universe? Did your experience with Destro help shape how you approached M.A.S.K., or did you want this book to have a completely different flavor? The first issue hints at a larger arms race involving technology and weapons that may not even originate on Earth. How much of M.A.S.K. is a spy thriller versus a science-fiction story, and where does it fit tonally alongside Transformers, G.I. Joe, and Void Rivals? Bruce Sato and Gloria Baker are positioned as key new recruits. What qualities do they bring to M.A.S.K. that complement or challenge Matt Trakker's leadership style? The original M.A.S.K. comic debuted in 1987 and had a very different view of global threats and military organizations. Were there any specific elements from that era that you deliberately updated to reflect modern anxieties and geopolitics? Fun question: If you could each claim one M.A.S.K. vehicle and mask from the entire franchise to use in real life for a week, which would you pick and what completely irresponsible thing would you do with it?
The new era of Marvel Noise continues with Steve, Andrew, Kevin, & Phil. We've lured Phil in to talk about the recent Marvel/DC crossovers with Superman/Spider-Man #1 and Spider-Man/Superman #1. After that we talk about Fantastic Four #6-10, Mortal Thor #10, upcoming Indiana Jones collections, Micronauts train with epic collections. We finish the episode off with final thoughts on Daredevil: Born Again season 2 on Disney+.
This week on Fantastic Forum, we are diving into two iconic heroes reimagined for a new era of fantasy and noir storytelling. First up is Masters of the Universe, the highly anticipated live action adaptation bringing Eternia back to the big screen. With Nicholas Galitzine starring as He-Man alongside Camila Mendes, Idris Elba, and Jared Leto as Skeletor, the film aims to reintroduce the legendary battle between good and evil with massive action, mythology, and cosmic fantasy. We are breaking down the cast, the world building, and whether this new take can finally deliver the definitive Masters of the Universe movie fans have been waiting for. Then we turn to Spider-Noir on Amazon Prime, starring Nicolas Cage as an aging private investigator version of Spider-Man navigating a dark and dangerous 1930s New York City. Inspired by the Marvel Noir comics, the series blends superhero storytelling with hard-boiled detective fiction, shadowy conspiracies, and stylized pulp action. With Cage stepping back into the role after Into the Spider-Verse, we are discussing whether this noir-driven take on Spider-Man stands out as one of Marvel's most unique live action projects yet.

In this special episode of The Marvelists, hosts Peter Melnick and Eddie Wilson sit down with acclaimed comic book artist, writer, publisher, and educator Stephen R. Bissette for a wide-ranging conversation that bridges the worlds of mainstream comics, independent publishing, and creative rebellion. Best known for his groundbreaking work on DC's Saga of the Swamp Thing alongside Alan Moore and John Totleben, Bissette brought a revolutionary level of detail, horror, and ecological depth to the title in the 1980s. But his career extends far beyond the Bayou: from co-founding the influential horror anthology Taboo to self-publishing the ambitious Tyrant series—a meticulously researched, life-cycle epic starring a Tyrannosaurus rex that remains a high-water mark in creator-owned comics. Whether you're a Marvel fan curious about the wider industry, a Swamp Thing aficionado, or simply love stories about dinosaur comics and artistic integrity, this episode delivers insights from one of the medium's most thoughtful and uncompromising voices. Expect plenty of behind-the-pages stories, reflections on the evolution of the industry, and why dinosaurs (and swamp monsters) still rule.

Dragons are cool, Star Wars has never had more fans, and everyone is geeking out over the latest sci-fi release on Netflix. How did this happen? And how have the changing demographics of geekdom affected it, for better or worse? Lifelong nerd and critic A. D. Jameson, whose geek cred is stronger than the Force itself, joins us to figure it out. This episode originally aired in 2018.Go beyond the episode:A. D.

Jim Hill and Dan Graney talk about the latest, highly caffeinated Doomsday advertising stunt, and a certain friendly neighborhood Spider-Man makes his way to a neighborhood across the pond - what exactly is he doing there? Then take a trip down memory lane as they talk about the advertising genius that put Richard Pryor into Star Wars! Or more aptly, put Star Wars into everyone's favorite 70's variety shows. NEWS • Jim and Dan discuss the surprise pop-up “green” coffee shop which may or may not have held some hidden Doomsday clues in the menu • Spider-Man was recently spotted in London suspiciously filming something at the same time the Russo Brothers are in town, and with Brand New Day coming in July, the guys wonder if this is another Shawarma-style tag or maybe setting the scene for Spider-Man in Doomsday • Stan Lee is back, Excelsior! Only, is that such a good thing? ElevenLabs thinks so, and they're betting you want him to read you a bedtime story • Darth Vader arrives on Batuu in the new Marvel Comics series Echoes of the Empire, and the Disney folks are finally getting that sweet, sweet corporate synergy between Lucasfilm, Marvel, and the parks FEATURE • Jim and Dan talk about the “Yes, they really did that.” Star Wars television variety show appearances and of course, the much maligned and strangely beloved Star Wars Christmas Special HOSTS • Jim Hill - X/Twitter: @JimHillMedia | Instagram: @JimHillMedia | Website: jimhillmedia.com • Dan Graney - YouTube: @TheHubbubbery | Facebook: /thehubbubbery | Website: thehubbubbery.com FOLLOW • Facebook: @JimHillMediaNews • YouTube: @jimhillmedia • TikTok: @jimhillmedia SUPPORT Support the show and access bonus episodes and additional content at https://www.patreon.com/jimhillmedia.
