During NYCC, Marvel flashed a teaser for a new Civil War series in 2015, by Jonathan Hickman and Esad Ribic. The following Monday, rumors started flying that Robert Downey, Jr. had signed on to be in Captain America 3, and the internet put the puzzle together: oh God, they’re going to make a Civil War movie.
Mighty Marvel Monday: NYCC Round-Up!
I return from NYCC, battle-scarred and haggard, coughing so much that I am surely about to expel one of my lungs through my mouth (ask not for who con crud tolls, it tolls for thee), but I have the news for you, oh beloved readers. I have the news for you.
Mighty Marvel Monday: R U READY 4 SIXIS
Howdy, Monday people! I am out of town speaking at a conference about the importance of geek culture in public library programming, so I am writing this Mighty Marvel Monday installment wearing a blazer and dress pants, making it the classiest article I’ve ever written.
Mighty Marvel Monday: Too Much Deadpool
This Marvel Monday is being written from a train! I am on my way home from a trip to Boston, so you get to enjoy some news composed while gazing out at the scenic backs of factories and vacant lots as I criss-cross this great nation the American way — on Amtrak, with significant delays!…

Hey, Be A Buddy & Don’t Do That: The Surprise Dick Pic
Dudes, a tip (pun definitely intended): It is exceedingly unlikely that someone will enjoy a surprise picture of your penis. It is a rarity that one hears their phone buzz, picks it up, sees a photo of just some junk (usually not even artfully staged—give me a decorative fern, a pedestal, a velvet curtain!), and…
Con Diares: Ivy Goes to Otakon & Watches All The Anime pt. 2: I’m In Hell, This Is Hell
Is there any sound more gratingly condescending than the low-to-high slide of “hey, guys” coming out of the mouth of a convention volunteer staffer? They raise their hands to chest level, lock eyes with you, and smile sympathetically—it’s not your fault you skirted around the line, you’re just too stupid! “I’m a dealer, actually,” I…
