As someone who enjoys superhero comics and video games, I’m continually amazed that so few developers are able to successfully marry those two things. For every Arkham Asylum, there are countless half-baked movie tie-ins and quick-and-dirty mobile games gumming up the works. And it’s not like this is a new phenomenon either. Some of the […]
DC has released their full solicitations for September 2014.

How many Spider-Man movies do you think you’ll see in your life? It’s a strange concept to wrap your head around. Sequels are the necessarily evil that film fans grin and bear – they offer more of what you like, only bigger, more expensive and more explosive. But reboots? They don’t really fool anybody.
