http://bartallenimpulse.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html

The Bart Allen Impulse Blog. Reviewing every appearance of the DC Comics character Bart Allen. Saturday, February 28, 2015. Adventures in the DC Universe Annual #1. Something Wicked: Event One! Hilary J. Bader Writer. Frank Berrios Assit. Editor. Anyway, Impulse only appears in his individual story (again, no interactions with Superboy! So I'll only talk about Impulse's bit, especially since the overarching Dr. Fate stuff is a very loose connection at best. Secret Six #1, Doom Patrol #1 and Sea Devils #1.

Sports and Superheroes: Supergirl

http://sportsandsuperheroes.blogspot.com/2015/05/supergirl.html

Analyzing everything from Clark Kent to Jimmer Fredette. Thursday, May 21, 2015. You may have heard about a new Supergirl TV show. If you haven't, then make sure to watch the trailer on YouTube (I think it shows a bit too much, but it looks good, anyway). But did you know that Supergirl once starred in a major motion picture more than 30 years ago? Following the disaster of Superman III. But, as with Superman. Was released in 1984 with a budget of $35 million. It only earned back $14 million and earn...

Sports and Superheroes: July 2014

http://sportsandsuperheroes.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html

Analyzing everything from Clark Kent to Jimmer Fredette. Monday, July 7, 2014. Almost a year ago, Marvel released The Wolverine. Something of a makeup for the disastrous X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Hugh Jackman once again reprised the role that made him famous, and director James Mangold surrounded him with an almost entirely Japanese cast. Surprisingly, this movie attempted to continue the already convoluted X-Men movie continuity by taking place after X-Men: The Last Stand. But I will bring the score bac...

Sports and Superheroes: Batman: Under the Red Hood

http://sportsandsuperheroes.blogspot.com/2015/04/batman-under-red-hood.html

Analyzing everything from Clark Kent to Jimmer Fredette. Sunday, April 19, 2015. Batman: Under the Red Hood. Batman: Under the Red Hood. Let's find out by adding and taking away points as we (and I mean I) go through the film. What kind of a question is that? What do you think, Nightwing? He also kept reacting to everything Batman did like he'd never worked with him before. But in case there was any confusion, a random thug on the street is able to explain everything: "That's Nightwing . the firs...But I...

Sports and Superheroes: June 2014

http://sportsandsuperheroes.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

Analyzing everything from Clark Kent to Jimmer Fredette. Wednesday, June 25, 2014. I've attempted to write this review several times, but it always felt too soon for me. I needed more time, more distance away from my emotional highs and lows and the overwhelmingly positive and negative reviews. And now, a little more than a year later, I finally feel like I'm removed enough to give this movie a mostly objective review. Is in response to Superman Returns. What a heart-breaking moment! I think this scene c...

Sports and Superheroes: March 2014

http://sportsandsuperheroes.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html

Analyzing everything from Clark Kent to Jimmer Fredette. Wednesday, March 12, 2014. The Return of Swamp Thing. In 1989, seven years after the failure of Swamp Thing. Eccentric producer Benjamin Melniker got his wish to make a second Swamp Thing movie. As you can tell from the poster, The Return of Swamp Thing. Decided to take a much more silly tone than the first one. The poster also had the audacity to claim Swamp Thing as "America's favorite super hero" in the same year Tim Burton's Batman. When you lo...

The Bart Allen Impulse Blog. Reviewing every appearance of the DC Comics character Bart Allen. Tuesday, March 31, 2015. The Greatest Heroes of all Time! Karl Kesel – Writer. Pat Olliffe – Pencils. Al Williamson – Inks. Greg Wright – Colors. Jim Novak – Letters. Tom Brevoort – Editor. Mike Carlin – Consulting Editor. Bob Harras – Chief. Mark Gruenwald – Guiding Spirit. The story itself is rather average, especially on the insistence of making all the heroes fight each other. At least with the adult he...

Cowboy Pete saddles up for “Fantastic Four” | PeterDavid.net

http://www.peterdavid.net/2015/08/11/cowboy-pete-saddles-up-for-fantastic-four

Home of Peter David, writer of stuff. Cowboy Pete saddles up for “Fantastic Four”. Just came back from seeing what is reportedly the single worst comic book movie ever made. You’re all insane. Seriously. You are all freaking nuts. 8220;Fantastic Four”–good film. Better than the “Fantastic Four” film from a few years ago. Heavens no. The pacing isn’t great and the plot is uneven. But the acting is fine, the effects are fine, and the fan bitching is ridiculous. So see it, don’t see it, whatever. ...People ...
