Justice League (Trailer 2)

Justice League (Trailer 2)

Wonder Woman leads the charge, the Flash is too young for this sh*t and Aquaman does the Bryce Harper move in our latest look at Zack Snyder’s Justice League. We’re not sure why they still look up to Superman after Dawn of Justice though.

Thor: Ragnarok (Trailer)

Thor: Ragnarok (Trailer)

“What were you the god of again?” Thor, the Hulk and another familiar face must team up to stop Hela, the goddess of death, from destroying all of Asgard. At least they got snazzy haircuts before all hell breaks loose.

Conan’s Superhero Vehicle

Conan’s Superhero Vehicle

To follow up on his awesome superhero suit from last year’s San Diego Comic-Con, Conan O’Brien teamed up with West Coast Customs to create a very special vehicle for his alter ego to fight crime in. We suppose it’s only fitting the car had to be pushed onto the stage.

The Tick (Trailer)

The Philosophy of Logan

The Philosophy of Logan

Logan’s spaghetti Western structure is blatantly obvious, but Wisecrack has a lot more to say about this excellent movie. Watch their video to find out how the film can be seen as a commentary on intellectual property and superhero movies.

Revoltech Wolverine Action Figure

The best there is at what he does. Kaiyodo’s 12th scale (6.1″ tall) Amazing Yamaguchi Wolverine action figure is based on the most badass X-Man’s ’90s incarnation. It comes with three heads, seven hands, two sets of claws and of course a cigar.

Set in the Marvel universe – specifically a world with the X-Men on it – Bryan Singer’s The Gifted is an upcoming FOX TV show about a lawyer who specializes in putting mutants away, only to discover that his teenage children are mutants themselves.

Wonder Woman: A Symbol of Progress

Wonder Woman: A Symbol of Progress

Wonder Woman and her insignia are often adopted by people fighting for recognition and equality. And for good reason. Kaptainkristian traced the origins of the superhero to remind us that Diana Prince was born from a progressive and optimistic (albeit egotistical) mind.

Spider-Man: Homecoming (Trailer 2)

Spider-Man: Homecoming (Trailer 2)

“If you’re nothing without this suit, then you shouldn’t have it.” Spider-Man: Homecoming appears to be a reverse origin story: young Peter Parker already has super powers, but not a real reason or appreciation for what it means to be a hero.

Hot Toys’ 12″ action figure gives us an in-depth look at Peter Parker’s homemade suit in Spider-Man: Homecoming. The figure comes with three different eyepieces, an unmasked Tom Holland head, four pairs of swappable hands and spider-web effects.

Justice League (Trailer)

Justice League (Trailer)

While we got burned by Zack Snyder’s last DC Comics film, we’re hopeful that the teamup of Bats, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg, and The Flash will result in something more magical. The first full trailer certainly doesn’t seem as dreary and humorless as Batman v. Superman.

Wonder Woman (Trailer 3)

Wonder Woman (Trailer 3)

Yup, another superhero origin story. But we have to hand it to DC for putting together compelling trailers for Wonder Woman, which follows the princess of the Amazons, and her rise to become a hero for all of us. We’re also excited that Patty Jenkins (Monster) directed it.

Wolverine: Logan’s Retrospective

Wolverine: Logan’s Retrospective

YouTuber Yoko Higuchi shares what is surely just one of the thousands of inevitable online tributes to Hugh Jackman and his 17-year stint as Wolverine. Johnny Cash’s cover of Hurt is the slow motion of soundtracks, but if you watched Logan you know that the song is a great fit.

Deadpool 2 (Teaser)

Deadpool 2 (Teaser)

(PG-13: Language) The merc with a mouth drops by to remind us of his existence with this hilarious parody of a famous superhero trope, a Stan Lee cameo, a pint of delicious ice cream, some fast moving smallprint, and more snark than you can shake a stick at.
