SDCC’14: Top 10 Stories from Comic-Con 2014 #sdcc
COMICS PORTAL: More Bat-books!
As a longtime Batman fan, I’ve often posed the question: Will the Dark Knight get overexposed?
COMICS PORTAL: Are Comics Too Realistic?
I’ve mentioned before that there are all kinds of Batman fans. There are some who like the Christopher Nolan movies while there are others who prefer Adam West’s Caped Crusader of the 1960s. That latter group tends to avoid DC’...
COMICS PORTAL: ‘Really’ Variant Covers
With the film debut of Guardians of the Galaxy a little over a month away, Marvel Entertainment is doing something to promote the movie that caught my attention. The variant covers of Marvel comics coming out in July will be fo...
COMICS PORTAL: Powered Versus Non-Powered
Okay, who’s your favorite comics hero? Does he or she have super-powers or not? Then look over the other characters you like. Do they follow the same pattern? Because comics can make special effects happen rather inexpens...
COMICS PORTAL: Biggest X-Men Movie Ever!
It didn’t get nearly as much fanfare as it deserved, but this past weekend, X-Men: Days of Future Past became the highest-grossing franchise film around the world!
COMICS PORTAL: What’s in a Title?
Last week, Warner Bros. announced the final title for what had previous been called “Batman vs. Superman.” Granted, they kept that as part of the movie’s full name, but they did add another phrase to it: “Dawn of Justice.”
COMICS PORTAL: Snyder Directing Justice League Film!
As reported by site head honcho Stephen Schleicher recently, Zack Snyder has been chosen to direct a Justice League movie, which will follow the unofficially named movie Batman vs. Superman.
COMICS PORTAL: Awesome Con DC 2014
The comics convention season is now in full swing, and I had the opportunity to attend a relatively new “con” on the other side of the country from Wondercon (now called the “real” Comic-Con by some folks I know).
COMICS PORTAL: The Name Game
Okay, you walk into a store and are looking for a few specific comics. How do you find them?
COMICS PORTAL: Comics-Related Movie Fatigue in 2014?
In recent years, observers of the movie industry have been worrying out loud about “superhero fatigue.” In other words, will movie-goers get tired of seeing movies with comic-book superheroes in them? I think this might better ...
COMICS PORTAL: The ‘Guardians’ Challenge
Nobody is happier than I am that more comics-related properties are hitting the big screen. As I’ve said before, each comic can be considered as a possible movie, sometimes even showing how it could look in the movies. Marvel S...
COMICS PORTAL: Too Much Advertising?
In the last several years, I’ve noticed a trend that is starting to wear on me. It’s the practice of advertising movies during the commercials of other products.
COMICS PORTAL: Marvel vs. DC vs. Us
I’ve been following with interest the Internet discussions ever since word came out last week that Marvel was putting Captain America 3 up against Batman vs. Superman in movie theaters on May 6, 2016. Even though this is still ...
Don’t Ruin It!
Even though this website is called MajorSpoilers.com, I still don’t like it when serious plot points in a story I’m looking forward to reading are given away. And I steer clear of ruining a story for anyone else as a result.
DC Making More Weekly Comics, 3D Covers
Several months ago, I discussed the debut of Batman Eternal, which will begin next month, in April. Now comes word that DC will also have two other weeklies hitting the stores by October. Not only that, September will be anothe...
Comics Portal: More Number Ones!
If a comics company wants to get the attention of comics readers and collectors, there’s one sure way to do it … issue a number one! For example, Marvel has announced that at least two number one issues are on the way soo...
Lex Luthor, Hero?
Recently, news came out that Lex Luthor, Superman’s opposite number, will be joining the Justice League, at least for a while. That’s certainly going to cause friction in that team!
Johns and JRJR Take on The Man of Steel
Remember last week’s column when I said that change is a constant in the Doctor Who universe? Well, fortunately for us, change is also taking place in the Superman universe! As reported here at MajorSpoilers.com, two big talent...
Making a Titan out of Doctor Who?
Change is a constant in the universe of Doctor Who. Every few years, the main character regenerates into a different person. For example, Matt Smith recently handed over the role to Peter Capaldi, a decidedly different actor, s...
Don’t Fall in Love with a Superhero
Just visit your local grocery store and you’ll discover that Valentine’s Day is coming soon. I’m always happy when that holiday goes by because it means February is half over, that month bringing the worst weather of the year w...
The Dynamic Duo on DVD … Finally!
Late last week via Conan O’Brien’s tweet, Bat-fans found out that the original Adam West/Burt Ward Batman series from the 1960s was heading to DVD! The show aired from 1966 to 1968, and while the motion picture based on the sho...
It’s Amazing! Peter Parker Returns!
When you’ve read comics as long as I have – a really long time now – there are certain patterns I’ve noticed in how both Marvel and DC do certain things. One of those, which I honestly despise, is to rep...
