Kill Bill volume one was release in 2003. The film, both volumes, is a love letter to samurai and western films and the relationship the two genres share. Tarantino also calls it a love letter to the colour blonde–to the Bride, Uma Thurman’s hair and the figure she casts in that Bruce Lee inspired yellow…
What We’re Playing Now: Fall Favorites for All Platforms
While many of us love to replay games we’ve played for years—Skyrim and Dragon Age: Inquisition, anyone?—we also love getting hooked on a game that’s a newer release or simply new to us. Here’s a quick roundup of games we’re playing right now and why we love them. Also check out past lists of games…
Cover Girl: What’s Going On With Captain Marvel?
Recently Comicosity shared a preview of Power Man & Iron Fist #9 and the cover caught my eye because it’s… weird. The perspective seems off, the character’s body seems unusually squishy, and the gloomy colour palate makes the whole thing seem dull and bleak. The cover is by Sanford Greene, who’s done lots of incredible work in…
The Wedding Issue: Vision and Scarlet Witch, Mantis and Swordsman

WWAC Pagans: A Roundtable
Today is a magical day! It’s Samhain, All Hallow’s Eve, or you know, Halloween. For some pagans (not all though!), it’s a big deal, it’s like our New Year. I asked four WWAC pagans, which would include me, your lifestyle editor, to talk about their pagan identities, their favorite practices, and cultural appropriation in paganism….

Cover Girl: Why Doesn’t Riri Williams Look 15?
This J. Scott Campbell Midtown Comics variant cover for Invincible Iron Man depicts 15 year old Riri Williams in the same outfit as she wore on the cover that introduced her to us. She has the same hairstyle, the same earrings. Instead of the ghost of Stark’s past in the background, there’s an industrial robotic…
Bisexual Identity: A Roundtable
September 19th through the 26th marks Bisexual Awareness Week during which BiNet USA, GLAAD, and other organizations place a spotlight on issues unique to the bisexual community. WWAC is no stranger to discussing these issues; whether it’s calling out bisexual erasure in Deadpool, highlighting bi characters we love, or pointing out the gaping holes in…

Roundtable: The WWAC Warriors Talk Ms. Marvel’s Patriotic Pose
You know us as the WWAC Warriors: everyday athletes who love to run, swim, lift weights, walk, train, and fight. We like to talk about fight choreography, realistic vs. impossible poses, and what disciplines our favorite characters embrace. Usually, that discussion is behind the scenes, but today, we wanted to share our thoughts on a recent…
The Wedding Issue: Scott Summers and Jean Grey
Aside from “Who would win in a fight?” nothing gets comic fans more heated than the question of whether or not superheroes should marry. In this mini-feature, Bride-to-Be Rebecca Henely and her Maid of Honor Kayleigh Hearn take a trip down memory lane to the most significant times comic companies took the plunge and got…
