First announced earlier this Summer as SDCC, Marvel’s Hulk: Where Monsters Dwell is a brand new, animated feature-length film starring—you guessed it—Bruce Banner/Hulk (Jesse Burch/Fred Tatasciore) as he teams up with Dr. Strange (Liam O’Brien) and an eclectic ensemble of monster superheroes to stop the mischievous master of the Dream Dimension, Nightmare (Matthew Waterson), as […]

Sure, it’s been two years since Avengers: Earth’s Mightiest Heroes was cancelled…that doesn’t mean the pain’s gone away. I loved that show. From the art style to the scripts, every aspect of that series appealed to me. During it’s brief two seasons, the show touched on several major story arcs for “Earth’s Mightiest Heroes,” but […]

The 90s were a turbulent time for Marvel Comics. While they nearly saw financial ruin, they also met with success by teaming with Saban Entertainment to introduce two of the most beloved animated series of the decade: X-Men: TAS and Spider-Man: TAS. Boosted by their success with Saturday morning cartoon, it wasn’t long before Marvel […]

I’ll be honest… I’m not a huge fan of Marvel/Disney XD’s ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN series. Just like Batman: The Brave and the Bold it’s just a little too much “kitsch” and not enough action to keep me interested. However, the show has managed to stay on my radar for going above and beyond to spotlight some […]

Before 1994 our only real animated Spider-Man fix was the 1981 series Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends. Intent on rethinking the Spider-Man mold for the nineties, FOX forked over a ton of money to New World Corporation (and then Saban) to create Spider-Man: The Animated Series. With a completely different animation style, and small uses […]
