Superheroes

With Ant-Man and the Wasp hitting theaters, Marvel figured it would be fun to offer up a size comparison of the flexibly-sized hero with some of their other characters. We had never heard of Simon “Throg” Walterson, but we so need a Pet Avengers movie now.

Mezco Toyz applied their retro realistic One:12 Collective design to Terry McGinnis’ futuristic Batman. The Batman Beyond action figure stands about 7″ tall and comes with a pair of wings, two swappable heads, six hands, three batarangs and booster jet effects.

Spider-Man’s enemies Electro, the Vulture, and more break prisoners out and make Spidey’s day a workout in our latest look at the PS4 exclusive brawler. Check out Spider-Man’s plethora of moves and stunts as he tries to match up against his classic foes.

Beast Kingdom’s 2018 San Diego Comic-Con exclusive is a fun reimagining of the Dark Knight’s costume in Batman v. Superman. The toy company added a punch of color to Batman’s all black suit, using his classic blue and gray scheme from the comic books.

Gamora has a few shortcomings, Iron Man knows a good deal when he sees one, and Thanos – er, Fanos? – is ashamed of his childhood nickname in ArtSpear Entertainment’s hilarious animated parody of the Avengers: Infinity War trailer.

Hot Toys’ new Deadpool action figure comes with a ton of humor, accessories and exchangeable parts, including a pair of high heels referencing the music video for Celine Dion’s song for Deadpool 2. It also comes with a unicorn doll and an X-Men trainee jersey.

DC Comics‘ latest Batman animated movie is now available on digital, Blu-ray and DVD. Batman Ninja is a decidedly Japanese and anime-flavored take on the Caped Crusader, featuring various anime styles of imagery and over-the-top action sequences.

Like the rest of Revoltech’s Amazing Yamaguchi line, this Batman action figure features exaggeratedly sculpted parts, particularly its cape, which has joints and six extra parts. It also comes with an alternate face, an extra pair of hands, a Batarang and two grapnel guns.

The latest trailer for Marvel’s upcoming superhero comedy sees Ant-Man and the Wasp use their size-shifting abilities in even more creative ways. It’s a lot of fun and games, but can they beat someone that they can’t hit? The movie premieres on 7/6/18.

Avengers: Infinity War is almost here. If you need a refresher of what has happened in the Marvel Cinematic Universe so far, Variant Comics has you covered. Watch the video and look back at the past 18 movies in the MCU, from the first Iron Man to Black Panther.

(PG-13: Language) The Merc with a Mouth assembles his team, gives Cable a classic gamer move and breaks fourth walls and his body in the final trailer for Deadpool 2. It would’ve been neat if he actually had a LinkedIn account.

While Marvel’s theme music has missed the mark lately, there are still classic themes for heroes like Spider-Man and Batman. Listen up as Tom Thum gives these tunes the beatbox treatment. Sure, Knight Rider and Ghostbusters aren’t quite superheroes, but Tom is still super.

(Gore) Originally aired in 2010 – and later released on DVD – Marvel and BET’s Black Panther is a motion comic miniseries with lots of action and cheesy humor. The miniseries sees T’Challa go up against a group of supervillains trying to take over Wakanda.

Bait’s officially licensed Marvel tees feature the name of some of the headliners of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and their hometown as simple text graphics. Our only complaint is that they gave New York to Tony Stark instead of to Peter Parker.

“He only ever had one goal: to wipe out half of the universe.” Gamorra reveals that Thanos has a simple plan to bring balance to the universe, Earth’s Mightiest Heroes assemble, and Spider-Man thinks something is strange in the new trailer for Avengers: Infinity War.

Editor Robert Jones pays tribute to the characters who are oftentimes far more interesting and entertaining than superheroes themselves, the unbalanced, devious, criminal, and downright insane bad guys. The track is Saints of the Sinners by The Faim.

Jessica Jones‘ first season lost steam halfway through for us, but overall it’s still a good show. The super-powered sleuth is coming back with another personal investigation. This time she’s trying to find out how and why she inherited her abilities.

The Avengers now have two size-shifting heroes. Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly and Michael Douglas reprise their roles in Ant-Man and The Wasp. The titular heroes team up to overcome an equally high-tech adversary that can render herself intangible.

(Spoilers) If you’ve never seen The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension, stop what you’re doing right now and watch it. It’s one of our faves. Kyle Kallgren of Brows Held High explains why Buckaroo is so much better than most of today’s superheroes.

From writer and artist Ed Piskor comes a three-part comic book miniseries that retells the story of the X-Men so far. Similar to what he did in Hip-Hop Family Tree, Piskor summed up over 50 years of X-Men stories in a retro and verbose style. More here and here.

The latest action figure in Kaiyodo’s unassailable Amazing Yamaguchi Revoltech line. The Carnage action figure is 6.3″ tall and comes with six pairs of eyes, six hands and tons of tendrils and blades for hundreds of display possibilities.

Miles Morales makes his way to the big screen in Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. The computer animated film is based on the 2014 Spider-Verse comic books, where Spider-Men from different universes teamed up to stop a powerful villain. Premieres 12/25/18.

FINAL JUSTICE! Kaiyodo follows up its instant classic Wolverine action figure with Captain America. The 6.5″-tall action figure has an amazing 38 points of articulation. You can place its shield on its arm or on its back. It also comes with a bullet ricochet effect for the shield.
