Comics Wrap-Up - A Lot Of Sugar and Caffeine

 

Title: Comics Wrap-Up. Background: lined-notebook-style with speech bubbles containing heart symbols


It's Thursday, I'm tired and stressed, so let's get some comics-y superhero-y goodness!


Hits A Little Differently



OK - a new trailer for Captain America: Brave New World dropped.

...And something just hits a little differently about  assassination attempts, violence at the heart of the US government, and a US president who turns into a giant red rage monster at the moment.

Can't think why.


...This looks pretty awesome though!

And the effect of the cherry blossom is really striking!


Warning: flashing images, general violence including political violence, war and/or terrorism







Effortless Cool


And another Thunderbolts* trailer!

And if the last Thunderbolts* trailer was a Florence Pugh/Yelena Belova thirst trap (spoiler: it was,) then this was a thirst trap dedicated to Sebastian Stan/Bucky Barnes.

The hair, the stomp, the effortless cool, the murder face and the patented Bucky Barnes 'how is this my life?!' face - we got it all, my dearest nerdlets.

Between him and Yelena, there are Bi and Pan people dying of thirst all over right now 😅

What If... They Let The Writers Loose, One Last Time?



I have this pet theory that the writers behind Marvel's What If...? are, in fact, millennials who have read too much fanfiction and been given a lot of sugar and caffeine.

...The new trailer for the final(!) series only confirms my thoughts. 

Because these people are clearly Power Rangers fans - with millennials being the most fervant Power Rangers fans out there, it all adds to my case 😎


There's so much in this trailer that I'm just gonna list the awesomeness I noticed:

  • Go go Avenger Rangers!
  • Cowboy universe - will we finally learn about cowboy Loki from the s2 finale?
  • Kahhori - Kahhori (Mohawk) is amazing, and should be added to everything, immediately. I love her.
  • Darcy and Howard the Duck - I'm assuming these are the married ones from s1; also - def. adds to the 'read too much fanfiction' part of my writer theory 😅
  • Goddess of Thunder Storm (as in, X-men's Storm,) - need I say more?


Warning: flashing images, general violence







Shameless Self-Promo Time!


Last week's Friday Fics Fix talked Disney+'s Loki, and a melancholy little story that I didn't think I would like (...I did!)




Are you looking forward to any of these?

Are the writers of 'What If..?' a bunch of highly-caffeinated millennials?
