Awesome Superheroes

We’re not sure why 20th Century Fox didn’t just start with this trailer for X-Men: Dark Phoenix. It has everything you need to know about the film – how Jean Grey got the Phoenix Force, why she’s losing control and why she’s going up against her friends. Premieres 6/6/19.

(PG-13: Language/Gore) From the warped minds behind Preacher comes a new Amazon Prime series which envisions a world in which superheroes abuse their superpowers instead of use them for good, while our protagonists “The Boys” do their best to expose and take down the super-evildoers. Drops 7/26/19.

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.

(SPOILERS) In this clip from Avengers: Endgame, Captain Marvel, Captain America, Black Widow, War Machine, Thor, and the Hulk talk about a major development in the story, and decide to move forward and defeat Thanos once and for all.

The pillars of the Avengers look back on their adventures, and it looks like the team – at least, what remains of it – has found a way to undo or restore what Thanos did in Infinity War… and it requires them to wear matching Ant-Man suits.

Captain Marvel is shaping up to be a blockbuster. Variant Comics jumps in on the movie’s hype by sharing the most notable versions of the hero/heroine. That includes the original version, one who defeated and then restored Death itself, and even a villain.

Netflix’s serial adaptation of the hit comic book Umbrella Academy is almost upon us. Adopted and raised to become heroes, these seven super-powered people don’t exactly get along. But now they have to band together to save the world. Premieres 2/15/19.

Set in the aftermath of the still to come Avengers: Endgame, Spider-Man: Far From Home sees Peter Parker going on a trip to Europe with his school friends. He really wants to enjoy the downtime, but Nick Fury and a group of elemental beings have other ideas.

The latest trailer for Captain Marvel sees our heroine believing that she’s part of an alien race called the Kree. One of their enemies are the Skrulls, a race of shapeshifters. But it appears that Marvel had a life on Earth before she became a super space soldier.

Casual fans of Spider-Man may have been surprised by the animated pig that showed up in the trailer for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Variant Comics shares the origin of Peter Porker, the Spectacular Spider-Ham, as well as his surprisingly formidable abilities.

Do you want to remember or find out about the comic book version of the X-Men’s Dark Phoenix saga before the movie adaptation comes out? Marvel has your back. Here’s a silly recap of what happened when Jean Grey was given the all-powerful Phoenix force.

Warner Bros. Pictures shares this extended video of Aquaman’s solo film. It shows much of the movie’s plot, but we’re still intrigued and hopeful. Jason Momoa adds his own spin to the role and is at once funny and imposing. The movie premieres 12/21/18.

Nearly a decade after the events of X-Men: Apocalypse, Professor X’s team of mutants are sent on a mission in space. There Jean Grey is struck by a “mysterious cosmic force.” She is unable to control this unspeakable power, driving the team – and the world – into chaos.

Not to be confused with the DC Comics character of the same name, Marvel’s Captain Marvel (aka Ms. Marvel aka Carol Danvers) never uttered the word “SHAZAM!” once. Brie Larson stars as a renegade superhero who gets her powers from an otherworldly source.

What if superheroes had to interview for jobs like us mere mortals? We suppose they’d be subject to the same sort of scrutiny and rejection we often experience. We’re guessing it would only be worse if your superpowers sucked, as CalebCity shows us.

Marvel is celebrating the 10th anniversary of its movie studio by releasing all of its 20 Marvel Cinematic Universe films so far in IMAX theaters. The film festival will take place from 8/30/18 to 9/6/18, and will include three films never before seen in IMAX.

The latest trailer for the upcoming PS4 exclusive Spider-Man game shows an intimidating group of villains out to destroy New York City. As if things weren’t bad enough, Spidey is branded and hunted as a vigilante. He does have friends on his side though.

Not to be confused with the OTHER Captain Marvel, DC Comics upcoming live-action SHAZAM! flick is a decidedly lighthearted take on the story of 14-year-old Billy Batson, who is bestowed by a wizard with powers and can transform into an adult superhero.

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.
