Captain Marvel / Shazam

October 8, 2024 by 2 Comments

Billy Batson became a living dream to most lost children, a symbol of hope and powers like a superhero. With the shout of “SHAZAM!!”, Billy transforms into an adult demigod, Captain Marvel / Shazam similar to Goku transforming into an adult as he becomes Super Saiyan 4. As Captain Marvel, Billy aligns himself with the Justice League to fight and protect the planet. Since Captain Marvel is really a young kid, his adult form exhibits adolescent behavior which severs his maximum potential as a hero.

The wizard Shazam imprisoned demons that represent The Seven Deadly Sins of Man, which would plague humanity if unchecked. These seven sins are similar to the ones told among religions of the real world. The sins are believed to be the cause for war, destruction and indifference among people. Anyone appointed to become a part of the Shazam Family is responsible for protecting the Earth from such elements. Black Adam was among the Shazam family until he was corrupted by his power, much like Sinestro..

Superman vs Captain Marvel is a popular crossover battle in the comic universe. With physical power and natural abilities, it’s hard to tell the difference between the two characters in battle. Superman outwits Captain Marvel in battle because of the Captain’s childlike mentality. When their superpowers collide, Captain Marvel dominates Superman. Magic is one of Superman’s weaknesses, which is the main source of Captain Marvel’s superpowers. In DC vs Mortal Kombat ending for Superman, Captain Marvel used knowledge of ancient Krypton to design a costume which repels magical attacks against Superman. Do you think these two characters are strong enough to battle Goku and Vegeta at God levels?

Superman

October 7, 2024 by 8 Comments

Superman, known as the Man of Steel, is a cultural icon in America and one of the most famous and powerful superheroes in comic book history. Superman’s power has evolved over the years, when moving from writer to writer. Each creator had the wish to increase the abilities of the character from worldly to universal levels. Superman seems invincible, except to characters such as Batman and Lex Luthor, who has knowledge of Superman’s weaknesses. Along with the power changes, Superman has gone through costume variations as well…. What do you think about the latest Superman costume? Is the Kryptonian biotech armor the best look for Superman? Or can we say more convenient? With this bio tech armor, it would make more sense on how Clark Kent could change into his costume at a quick rate, instead of the old school phone booth technique…….

Many fans grew up believing the emblem on Superman’s costume stood for his name but in fact it stands for hope in the House of El. This being the case, do you believe it to be more suitable for Superman to become a Blue Lantern Corps officer? Could Superman become the greatest if recruited? How would the battle turn out if Superman and Thor both wielded the power of hope? Dedicated to fighting crime, Superman is leader of the super team the Justice League. This team established to protect the people of Earth from all threats foreign and domestic. Superman feels he has a better place in the world when joined with other heroes that have special abilities like himself. Superman highly respects his second in command for his courage and intellect, which Batman uses in place of having no superpowers.

Superman has evolved from the comic books to many television series and movies. Many fans feel that no actor can compare to the first Superman: Christopher Reeve. Brandon Routh was next up to put on the red cape in Superman Returns. With the director Bryan Singer, the film felt more of a Marvel creation than that of DC. This is mainly because of his famous works with Marvel like the X-Men franchise. Now that Superman has been rebooted into the Man Of Steel and Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, will Henry Cavill become Christopher’s new successor, or will he also fail in comparison? With the advancement in computer graphics since the first films, and Zack Snyder as his new creator, it’s a good possibility. 

With Superman’s powers expanding throughout the years, this creates match ups against other characters within and of other universes. Comic Multiverse will feature its addition of Superman VS, covering some of these battles in-depth, in result, to end speculation and debate. The most popular battles with Superman are: Superman Vs Batman, Superman Vs Goku, Superman Vs Hulk, Superman Vs Thor. Is Superman the greatest comic book superhero?

Dr. Doom

October 7, 2024 by 4 Comments

Dr. Doom, like many villains or some heroes, started with tragic beginnings. Doom lost his mother from a dealing gone wrong with the devil Mephisto and his father was lost in a grieving attempt to save his mother. Because the tragedy stemming from supernatural forces, Doom heavily indulged in learning science and magic in attempts to save his mother’s soul. Dr. Doom’s desire to gain more knowledge and power consumed him to the point where his actions took a villainous side than heroic. Because of this, Dr. Doom had many run ins with super teams such as The Fantastic Four and the Avengers, stopping his plans of domination.

Dr. Doom’s intellect level is in comparison with Lex Luthor, Reed Richards, Bruce Wayne, Tony Stark and even Dr. Strange in various degrees. Dr. Doom has many accomplishments and failures in his conquest of rulership. He has even been able to have the Infinity Gauntlet in his possession. Thanos also felt he was worthy of the Infinity Gauntlet as well, even though he failed its power.

Dr. Doom has made his appearance on-screen with The Fantastic Four , Rise of the Silver Surfer and the 2015 Fantastic Four. Dr. Doom appeared to be the main villain for each of the Fantastic Four movies. Each film showed small portions of Dr. Doom’s potential as a menacing super villain. With the 2015 reboot of Fantastic Four, Dr. Doom took on a different origin in power. He also took on different look and array of powers, completely erasing any signs of humanity. With these big changes to the character and storyline, the film took a big lost to its ratings and loyalty to comic fans. Are the current adaptations of Dr. Doom the last of his on-screen appearances or can movie producers revive and correct his character development?

Ghost Rider

October 7, 2024 by Leave a Comment

Because of Ghost Rider‘s dark means of justice, he is classified as an anti-hero. Ghost Rider is an anti-hero that was created by dark supernatural forces like Spawn, service to the devil in exchange for one’s soul. Ghost Rider was an agent of evil but later broke free of his hellish servitude. The Ghost Rider uses his dark powers to battle evil and protect the innocent, thus becoming a soul punisher.

Ghost Rider’s supernatural force is among the most powerful in the Marvel Universe. Ghost Rider is karma in physical form. With his dark powers, the Ghost Rider uses the Penance Stare, which burns through his victim’s soul. This power is used to inflict pain on victims, making them feel the pain they have inflicted on others a hundred-fold. On top of that, Ghost Rider’s physical strength is enough to battle a raging Hulk.


Ghost Rider has come to the big screen with the 2007 film Ghost Rider and second film Spirit of Vengeance. Excellent imagery on both movies, but which one was better to you? Do you think Nicholas Cage was an excellent choice to become Johnny Blaze? Since Ghost Rider is a dark character, do you agree that these films should’ve pushed for an R rating?

Ghost Rider and Spawn has many similarities to their origins of power. This brought interest among comic fans on which one would win in battle against each other. Which character do you stand with in this battle? To be continued…

Dr. Manhattan

October 7, 2024 by Leave a Comment

There are many god-like beings within the comic universes. Some of these beings are either a helpful guide or a destroyer for both heroes and villains. Some gods are observers like the Watcher and/or on rare occasions engage in battle like The Celestials vs Thanos in the Infinity Gauntlet series. With Dr. Manhattan’s character design, could he be the physical embodiment of the bio-electrical energy that powers our human body?

Dr. Manhattan was a human being before the accident that turned him into the luminous godlike being. This what makes Dr. Manhattan unique and separates him from other cosmic entities. Dr. Manhattan is similar to the stories of Simon Williams aka Wonder Man and Nathaniel Adam aka Captain Atom. Each of their origins started from scientific experiments gone wrong resulting in a being with cosmic powers.

Dr. Manhattan is a member of the superhero team called The Watchmen. This graphic novel transformed into a movie which displays that if such power like Dr. Manhattan is created here on Earth, such power who be taken advantage of for negative purposes. Dr. Manhattan was used as a military tool to bring fear to other nations. His mentality evolved where he soon realized his place was no longer on Earth but in the creation of the cosmos. Do you think The Watchmen film was a great adaptation of the comic book, or could it have been better?

The Avengers

October 7, 2024 by 7 Comments

The Avengers is one of Marvel Comics prominent teams that works alongside of the government’s S.H.I.E.L.D agency. The Avengers purpose is to defend the world against treats that could destroy it. This super team is similar to the squad Lex Luthor created while acting as President in Public Enemies. The Justice League is different because they work outside government control, which makes a scapegoat or a constant target to the public and official parties.

Even though The Avengers is a team of heroes, they can find themselves at war with other super teams such as the X-Men, or battle with themselves like in the Civil War Series. Do you think The Avengers is the ultimate super team of Marvel Comics?

The Avenger’s popularity has grown from the comics to television with Avengers: Earth Mightiest Heroes, then has moved to the big screen with the smash hits like 2012 The Avengers. Age of Ultron, and Infinity War. Even though the team has gone through many changes within the roster; Thor, Captain America and Iron Man has remained the team’s main characters. Since the film and TV show, the team roster began to grow with more heroes such as Black Widow, Hawkeye, and The Hulk.

After knowing the complete list of heroes that was or is now part of the Avengers, which hero would you have loved to see in the movie as part of the team or a cameo? How about Wolverine? The Avengers has many more movies in store for the future so will get many more surprises from Marvel Comics.

This will be the 6th film in the series of the Terminator. In each film, a newly advanced, liquid Terminator is out to destroy the legacy of Sarah Conner. Dark Fate and Salvation are the only films in the series where humans are turned into cyborgs in attempts to efficiently infiltrate the Resistance, compared to their T-800 counterparts. Linda Carroll Hamilton has returned to portray Sarah since her last appearance in Terminator 2. Her last encounter with the Terminator seemed to be a peaceful truce, why would Sarah seem uneasy about it now where she wants it destroyed? Now that the Terminator(Schwarzenegger) has been upgraded to liquid metal, how will it compare to the newer version from the future in this movie? Terminator: Dark Fate hits theatres November 1st!

Batman

September 4, 2024 by 8 Comments

Batman, also known as The Dark Knight, is a crime fighter of Gotham City. Despite being known as a hero, Batman is viewed as a vigilante and even a criminal in the eyes of law enforcement. Batman public persona Bruce Wayne is a multi-billionaire and polymath. Using his resources, Bruce Wayne can successfully manage being a crime fighter with use of special made gadgets, vehicles and costumes, much like Iron Man.Batman is one of many heroes with no superpowers. But what if he did? What if Batman was a daywalker vampire like Blade or has vampiric powers that manifest at night like Nina Price? This would make sense for Batman to have these supernatural powers since he battled Dracula himself. Having these supernatural powers could magnify the fearful image of Batman a thousand-fold. Would comics fans accept a new and improved Batman? Just imagine the Dark Knight with powers of Dracula, as shown in the film Dracula Untold. Do you think Batman could take on Superman more effectively this way?

Being a strong-willed and fearless warrior is what makes Batman one of the greatest heroes to enter in the world of crime fighting. Dedicating his life to fight injustice, Batman uses his resources to help form and support the Justice League. As second in command, Batman is in charge of global surveillance and communications. Batman is the third most important member of the Justice League next to Superman and Wonder Woman. Batman has become a master of his mind, body and emotions. Having considerable willpower and using fear against injustice, Batman is an excellent candidate for both the Green Lantern Corps and Sinestro Corps. Even though Batman was believed to have perished by Darkseid , the false Batman was recruited to the Black Lantern Corps. Later revealed to be among the living, the real Batman was recruited to the The White Lantern Corps. Which Lantern Corps do you think best suits Batman?

The greatest asset that Batman has is his mind. Because of his development over the years, comic fans would believe that Batman could pretty much beat all superheroes and villains in a battle if enough research was completed. Because of this, you would find Batman in crossover battles against Spawn, Superman, Iron Man and even Dracula. Is Batman really the greatest crime fighter throughout all comics?

Like many characters, Batman has evolved from the comic book to movie screen. Which was your favorite Batman film? Batman has been portrayed by many actors by none have stayed to keep Batman flourishing in cinema. Which actor do you think was the best Batman?
