The Scarlet Speedsters
The Flash is one of the most iconic, recognisable characters in all of comic book lore and is a founding member of the Justice League alongside DC superpowers such as Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman. He has the ability to tap into a mystical energy source called “the speed force” which allows him superhuman speed, the ability to phase through objects and makes it possible to run across water and vertically up buildings to name just a few of his …
The Queen of Crazy: Harley Quinn
When I was debating what article to write next I thought that I would do a piece on the most popular person in comics right now one Harleen Frances Quinzel. Created for Batman's animated TV series, she was supposed to be just a minor character; a one-off almost. When the series started in 1992 creators Paul Dini and Bruce Timm were struggling to come up with a female character to use in an episode with the Joker - they thought …
The Battle of The Archers: Green Arrow vs Hawkeye
I've tried to pit alike heroes against one another here. One from DC and one from Marvel but both worthy of an epic battle because of their similarities. Lets dive in and see who comes out on top in this fight.
I'll start with Oliver Jonas Queen aka Green Arrow. In his everyday life he is a billionaire businessman and owner of Queen Industries somewhat the same story as Bruce Wayne (Batman). He is a local celeb in Star City …
Green Lantern (Hal Jordan) versus Martian Manhunter
In this latest installment of versus Hal Jordan (the best Green Lantern in one man's opinion) will take on Mars' finest - J'onn J'onzz aka Martian Manhunter. Two founding members of the Justice League of America!!
I wanted to explain a little behind the Green Lantern's powers before I started. It's important to know about the Green Lantern ring and its power source. The rings all Lantern's use is powered by a Power Battery, which in most cases takes the …
The Terminator vs. Merc with the Mouth
Before I start I know a lot of people think Deadpool can't be killed. While I've heard this before it's just not true. You've seen the death of Wolverine recently in comics and if you know anything about comic books anyone is fair game. I wanted to start with this caveat because I wanted everything on the table. This doesn't mean Deathstroke wins this match it just means that any outcome is possible. On that note...
I'll start with the …
Batman vs Superman: It’s extended… but is it any better?
One of the major criticisms levelled at "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice” was that editing had left the film feeling quite disjointed. In some cases scenes had clearly had key elements removed which removed context and left them hard to follow.
So, to rectify this, shortly after the film was released (and the negative reviews started rolling in) Warner Bros announced that “Ultimate Edition” would feature an additional 30 minutes of footage which had been removed. Now call me …
"Suicide Mission" - A Suicide Squad Review
“You know what they say about the crazy ones…” - Captain Boomerang
SUMMARY
Enjoyable, likeable in parts, but ultimately forgettable, and short of the charming, cool film you hoped for.
+ A team of bad guys!
+ Will Smith is solid as ever
+ Harley Quinn’s in a movie!
+ Diverse cast
- The one-liners don’t really land
- Weak plot
- Ironically, an uninteresting villain
- Loads of peripheral characters in the squad
Batman has a superb rogue’s gallery. His …
Captain America vs Batman
The Dark Knight versus America’s finest. When trying to figure out someone to battle Captain America, I didn’t want him fighting someone with cosmic powers or other worldly abilities. Batman was the most logical choice in my head. In the article ahead you’ll find out why…
First lets start with Steve Rodgers, aka Captain America. Through the Super Soldier serum and Vita Rey treatment he is transformed into everything he wanted since he was a child, the perfect soldier. He …
Thor vs Superman
When trying to come up with a hero or villain strong enough to take on Superman it’s actually pretty difficult. You have Black Bolt, Silver Surfer, Hulk, Hyperion, Sentry, Dr. Strange (possibly) and if you want to throw a curveball, Phoenix. Superman is pretty much unbeatable unless you’re using kryptonite. I’m not going to allow that though, no cheating just straight up power for power battle.
I looked through many characters and the one I came to conclusion that would …
“The Jester of Genocide”
I thought about writing many different things when I started this but I kept coming back to The Clown Price of Crime, The Joker. I decided to write a little about what makes him tick, who he is, why he’s my favorite character in the comic book universe, because sometimes you need a little crazy.
“Smile, because it confuses people. Because it’s easier than explaining what is killing you inside”. - Joker
I feel Joker is a misunderstood character….. yes …
