WonderCon 2011: Classics and Not-So-Classics

Some characters are instantly recognizable, standing the test of comic book time. But we comic nerds are creative folk, and sometimes the classics are made better with a little twist…

Gender-bending only makes them better!

Video Game Review: Thor God of Thunder and Captain America: Super Soldier

On Friday I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek at two eagerly awaited games for geeks everywhere. Thor: God of Thunder and Captain America: Super Soldier. All brought to you by a corner stone of the gaming industry Sega. We all got a glimpse of both games last year at New York Comic Con. However this Friday I was able to actually try my hand at both games on each system.

DS Game Review: Hop: The Movie Game

 


 

Hop: The Movie Game is based off of Universal Pictures CG/live action family-friendly comedy Hop, which hit theaters on April 1st.  It is as adorable as cute games featuring drum playing bunnies and evil chicks can be and would be a great addition to any child’s Easter basket this season.

TV Review: Supernatural – “Frontierland”

Written by Kroze Kresky

During the third season of Supernatural, head show-runner Eric Kripke started plotting out a spinoff to his hit series, while delving deep into his own mythos – chronicling the adventures of the first Hunter, Samuel Colt. Kripke felt there was so much that could be done with a Supernatural series set in the old wild west, bringing about a new feel to the genre.

Now here we are, three whole seasons later, and fans finally get a glimpse of Kripke’s vision as Sam and Dean do a little bit of time traveling back to the old days in order to find and hunt a phoenix.

ComicsOnline’s Summer Movie Preview (Part 1)

Hammer! Hammer! Hammer!
 
by Gema Luna, Reporter & Reviewer
 
The beginning of the end is near. The end of laughter, tears, back pains due to sitting in concrete for hours on end, not to mention the waiting and more waiting. The end of everything we have been waiting on for days, months, even years, has finally arrived. The summer-mega-blockbusters that we have been waiting for have finally arrived.
 
APRIL
 
April may not start with major movies, but it starts yet-another sequel to one of my personal Cult Favorites: Scream 4.

WonderCon 2011: Video Game Preview: Spider-Man: Edge of Time

Last year, Activision and Beenox brought us a interesting take on the spider man universe by showing us 4 different and unique takes on everyone’s favorite webslinging hero in Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions. This year the developers take a more refined look at two of the versions of Spidey they toyed with last year with both Spider-Man 2099 and Amazing Spider-Man returning in Spider-Man: Edge of Time.

TV Review: Nikita – “Covenant”


Nikita has been a fairly inconsistant show since it began, but recently it has started to become a bit more solid. “Covenant” helps continue the consistency with a pretty interesting mid-season break return episode. This episode features the murkily-alligned Michael and his previous relationship to Nikita.


Nikita is going after the black boxes she so desperately desires once again, and to do so, she needs to capture drug lord Kasim (who has quite the past history with Michael… who wants him dead for what he has done), and trade him to Michael for one of the aformentioned black boxes. This plan quickly goes south when Kasim is not all what he seems to be (As no one really is in this show).

Blu-ray Review: Firebreather

 
Cartoon Network has been very hit-or-miss when it comes to creating new animated franchises. Who can forget such classics as the ingenious Megas XLR or Samurai Jack, but who wants to remember such bombs as Squirrel Boy? Firebreather, Cartoon Network’s newest experiment, falls into the latter of the aforementioned groups. Primed to be a backdoor pilot for an ongoing series, and CN’s first full CGI film, Firebreather is a very interesting specimen, and it is now available on Blu-ray.

DVD Review: Doctor Who- The Seeds of Doom

Doctor Who: The Seeds of Doom is now available for you to own on DVD!

The long-running British Sci-fi tv series, Doctor Who, has had its ups and downs over the 60 plus years it has been running. But many Classic Who fans seem to agree that Tom Baker, who became the fourth Doctor after Jon Pertwee’s run, is considered the “Golden Age” of Doctor Who, bringing with it a number of timeless stories and memorable characters as well as the return of the popular third Doctor companion (who now stars in her own spinoff show), Sarah Jane Smith.
