Marvel’s Avengers is a Fantastic Game with a Couple of Standout Issues

I grew up in the era of the NES and games on cartridges. There was no online play, and whatever got put onto that cartridge was the game that you got, bugs and all. Still, if I have to live in a world where the game can be finished after it's released, I'm at least... Continue Reading →

A Tribute to Allen Bellman, Iconic Captain America Artist

I'll be honest: I don't have a great collection of vintage Captain America comics. I didn't know Allen Bellman for his works for Timely Comics before they became Marvel Comics. Several years ago my wife and I paused at his table at Lexington Comic and Toy Convention in Lexington, Kentucky. I'd never heard of him... Continue Reading →

Captain America’s Story in AVENGERS: ENDGAME Makes Perfect Sense, If You Think About It This Way

First of all, MAJOR AVENGERS: ENDGAME SPOILERS INCOMING! Now that that's out of the way, we can continue. I've read several reviews of Endgame that focus on the ending of my all-time favorite superhero, Captain America. At least half of them trash-talk the ending, saying that there's no way that his story makes sense. I've... Continue Reading →

Updated: A new trailer for the highly anticipated Avengers: Endgame was released today. More importantly, though, is the fact that tickets are now on sale. To say that people have been waiting for this moment is an understatement. With each kernel of information we receive, whether it be through toys, trailers, or other leaked photos,...

FANS GET WHAT THEY WANT WITH PEGGY CARTER INCARNATION OF CAPTAIN AMERICA

  Agent Peggy Carter is a hot commodity right now. After being introduced into the Marvel Cinematic Universe through Captain America: The First Avenger, she became popular enough to warrant two seasons (more if fans have their way) of her own television show. Funko has made Agent Carter figures, cosplay groups dedicated to the character have... Continue Reading →

Love Strong Women? Act Like It: Another Perspective On Renner/Evans Black Widow Descriptors

Last week, a Nerdy Minds writer penned an opinion piece regarding Jeremy Renner and Chris Evans jokingly calling Black Widow a slut and a whore. It stirred quite the controversy in the geek community. As with all controversial topics, we like to pass the mic to our readers or other writers so they might offer another perspective.

Jeremy Renner and Chris Evans Fall Prey To Angry “Feminists”

The nerd world, and the world in general, exploded yesterday after Jeremy Renner and Chris Evans referred to the comic book character Black Widow as a "slut" and a "whore". Regardless of the fact that this was all said in jest and that they weren't actually passing judgement on or questioning Black Widow's character, fury... Continue Reading →
