A couple weeks ago I had the pleasure of sharing a ridiculous story with you all that involved the Avengers getting to go on the Late Show with David Letterman. It was an incredibly goofy story, and it opened up the idea of various Marvel superheroes taking part in […]
When finding the stories to feature here on Marvel Madness, I generally try to plan things out a bit. You know, theme months, maybe pick specific stories to coincide with movies or TV shows featuring the characters. Or if I notice it’s been too long since I’ve […]
Well folks, we’ve done it. This is the final installment of my Cinematic Century project. Over the past two years we’ve discussed one hundred films, one for every year between 1918 and 2018, and entire century of favorite films. We’ve seen the ebbs and flows of cinema, […]
