Okay, we’ve had the teaser and saw Coulson lives. Now we’ve got a chunkier trailer; nearly 3 minutes of it. Marvel actually clears up a lot of questions. This is clearly post Avengers.

Review: Better Angels – a supervillain roleplaying game
Better Angels is a RPG in which you get to a play a demon and a superhero. Okay; there are a few twists to consider. Firstly, you’re really playing a super villain rather than a superhero although you really are heroic. It’s the demon who is providing the power to super villain but it also […]
Batman and Aquaman: Medieval armour style
Two of the Justice League heroes wearing mythic medieval armour. These leather suits were created by deviant artist Azmal, aka Samuel Lee, who has confirmed that Loki, Deadpool and Green Lantern are also going to enjoy the same treatment.
Gangster mugshots for Batman’s baddies
Artist Jason Mark was inspired by well dressed gangsters and villains in this Laughing Squid curated collection of Australian mugshots. The result? He turned some of Gotham’s favourite foes and Batman’s most frequent enemies into something similar. Check out his portfolio at Jempix.blogspot.ca for more fantastic (and often superhero) art.

The sexist superhero t-shirt debate
Geek Native’s collection of fully dressed superheroines, wonderfully drawn by Michael Lee Lunsford, helped spark an intersting debate. Is there sexism in today’s comic book culture? I feel that the weekend’s debate over these two t-shirts is a natural round two. The concern is this; the blue t-shirt for boys tells them they can be […]
Avery & Pete Superseeds
Superseeds is a superhero movie with a few twists. The first twist is that it comes from a $17.5K Kickstarter, so it’s a crowdfunded venture rather than a Holywood production. The second twist? This is the story of an unlikely bunch of heroes and weed. A pair of roommates, Avery and Pete, don’t seem to […]
Fantastic three colour hero posters
These clever posters are the work of Daab Creative and show exactly how much a talented artist and conjure up with just a few colours and a straight forward design. They’re from a set called “Hero Profiles”.
Superhero shredding: Marvel guitar picks
I found these during a window shopping session. That’s right; Marvel Universe guitar picks. I’ve heard of Guitar Hero but this is taking things in a diferent direction. Via Amazon $7.76.
