Check It Out: Marvel Legacy #1: To Debut Avengers 1 Million BC

By

Once again Marvel is promising to change everything this September with Marvel Legacy, however this time that is supposedly going to be accomplished by a one shot rather than a 10 part summer event that would cost you over $50 to collect.  Rather than changing every thing the tag lines for Marvel Legacy are: "Its All Connected" and "Make Mine Marvel", the first being a motto for the MCU, and the second being classic saying from the Stan and Jack days of Marvel Comics.

Get the our thoughts on the latest new Avengers team and Marvel Legacy after the break...



The combination of these two catch phrases should give Marvel Zombies some semblance of hope as they promise to mix the best of the past with the best of the present.  Speaking of the past, it appears that Marvel Legacy will start there by introducing readers to the Avengers 1,000,000 BC.  The BC Avengers team will consist of: Odin, Star Brand, Phoenix, Agamotto, Ghost Rider, Black Panther, and Iron Fist.


Personally I am thrilled to see the past meet the present, and for Marvel to compartmentalize their comics universe a bit.  Reading the tealeaves a bit here it seems like we care going to get a return to classic story telling, with the connectivity of the MCU and days of Marvel Comics gone by.  My only fear is that this is done with the result of ditching the strides in diversity that Marvel has made over the past 5 years.  For now we will have to wait until September 2017 to get these answers when Marvel Legacy hits shelves written by: Jason Aaron with Art by: Esad Ribic and Joe Quesada.

     As Skeletor said in the 1987 film Masters of the Universe , "Everything comes to he who waits, and I have waited so very long for this moment." Yes, after one year of preorders, waiting, concepts and preproduction pieces, constant changes, small victories, crushing defeats, and sheer anticipation, Castle Grayskull has finally arrived to my home. Earlier this afternoon my wife texted me a picture of the enormous box sitting in our kitchen and I've been jazzed ever since. Heck, I've been singing the Castle Grayskull song all week now to help myself pass the time. Before I even open the box, I have to say that while there have been plenty of ups and downs on the journey from having Castle Grayskull exist simply as a sketch on paper to existing as an actual product delivered to my door, I think there are some folks that need to be commended. First, regardless of all other issues I don't think anyone can say that Scott Neitlich ("ToyGuru") and the Fo

The Night He Came Home Again! - A 'Halloween 2018' Review

When we first learned that Director: David Gordon Green would be talking over the iconic Halloween franchise, my thoughts could best be described as skeptical at best.  How was the guy that brought us Pineapple Express going to bring Michael Myers home again? Also where did Danny McrBride fit it in? Would Blumhouse and Green do the un-thinkable by allowing McBride to dawn the mask, and having the world famous physical comedian wield who knows what as his weapon of choice? Find out the answer to these, and many other questions after the break in our Halloween review....
