DC vs Marvel is back!

Ever since the last DC vs Marvel from the late 90s, early 2000s, comic fans all craves for their favorite heroes, teams, characters from both side of the brand to battle it out. The wait is finally over now that, the current politics in the industry gets resolved or at least a break through, so does having another crossover. We will be getting the Batman vs Deadpool on September 2025. I will be expecting a story focus with action since this will most likely be a 1 issue special to gauge on readers and sales reaction. 

The new Disney Marvel movie, The Thunderbolts have got some audiences scratching their heads when the name changed the New Avengers. For the everyday audiences who is just looking for a movie to watch, it should not matter much to them. For the comics Fans, it probably will hit some nerves. In today's era, any slight changes may or may not do well from fans. How could the Thunderbolts be the new Avengers? Maybe in the movie, the direction will end up as New Avengers. Will fans take it? In the movie, you have Winter Soldier and US agent. two characters I know. Perhaps for audience sake of having characters you know to be put in this team. 

If you have watched WrestleMania 41, this event contains the iconic match of Cody Rhodes vs John Cena for his retirement series of matches. Stop reading if you do not want spoilers.......

While Cena is free to have his retirement matches with the stars and legends in the company, I feel that the company shouldn't pass the belt to Cena. The heel change when he align with the already a heel Rock and some heel lackey, he will use this never been a heel ever in WWE card, to dominate the champion, probably with outside interference. Cena wants to be a champion that is more times than Rick Flair. When you are a champion, you need to be in it long term to promote your product. Cody Rhodes is a much better champion in the current era. And probably Drew McIntyre, perhaps they can put in a story to have Drew best Cena for the champion.

Disney's Marvel comics is making changes to their characters. Venom, the iconic and famous Spiderman villain and sometimes a hero, is now a lady. And this lady is Mary Jane Watson. While that are cases of hero and their girlfriend is a villain character. But to replace Eddie Brock with Mary Jane, how well would readers accept? As a reader of the old days, I would disagree on the change. Venom is more than just a symbiotes. Venom is actually Eddie Brock, whose hatred combined with the symbiotes, feeling rejected from Peter Parker arise to their battle that are personal.

A new Green Lantern TV series is finally made and Green Lantern fans can now wait for the release. Throughout the years, many changes happens for Green Lantern. This shows focus on Hal Jordan and the new recruit of John Stewart. So this show focus on the Hal Jordan era. For Hal Jordan fans, it is rejoice. Hopefully you will get to see them in super hero action and not in their civilian clothes all the time.

  

In the 90s, when the 2 famous comic company, DC and Marvel, decided to do a crossover with their iconic characters, it was a hit. Then it came a period where both companies doesn't interact, no crossover will be expected. Now, there came a news, a crossover is in the making. If you do read comics today, you do know it is very different from the days. You will also need a good artist to draw these characters. While the plan is still in early stages, it is good to know there is a plan for a crossover.

The movie: Captain America: Brave New World, is out in cinema now. If you are a Disney fan, you will probably watch it. Marvel fan may skip it, for various reasons related to the storyline. For me I will skip it like most of the Marvel movies before it. For this show, the only Captain America will always be Steve Rogers. Even the comics, Steve will always be back for the role. Chris Evan done a good job as Captain America. When Marvel let Falcon to take over the task, they leave out the super soldier serum. As least this is my take on it. Go watch it and comment.
