And I can’t wait to read what I said in it! LOL! 🙂
It joins a growing literature on Martin.
Here’s the official flyer.

“Batman Vs. Robin”
Okay! Always down with more Damian Wayne!
It’s A Superhero World, Vol. 3
Atom on one side (played by a former Superman)
and Ant-Man on the other.
Daredevil on TV, from the beginning, and Luke Cage named.
“Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD” keeping folks guessing (as is my other Tuesday night favorite, “The Flash”), while the “new” “Fantastic Four,”…..well, I don’t know what to say about that yet.
An upcoming “Lego Batman” movie.
Even a radio show starring Cap on “Agent Carter.”
Superhero crossovers now becoming a new television tradition, while “Gotham” settles into praise and criticism.
Then there’s the new “Avengers: Age of Ultron” trailer, below:
And here’s the original trailer, but in Legos! LOL!
(Will Dr. Stephen Strange make a cameo in “Ultron?”)
Female superheroes are finally about to get their film due. (And one on the Web. And women creators, in film.)
And finally, are comics (continuing the) re-writing (of) themselves to match the movies? Has it really gotten to this point?
TOO MUCH TO FOLLOW!
My Favorite Documentary, “James Baldwin: The Price Of The Ticket,” Celebrates Its 25th Anniversary
I never thought the intellectual and professional content of my life could be symbolically defined by the content of one feature film documentary, but the one celebrated above (and promoted directly below)Â comes dangerously close. It is the documentary that made me me.
(I’m glad that the moderator and guest remembered Black documentary legend William Miles, now an Ancestor, who was a co-producer of this masterwork.)

FEBRUARY 7th UPDATE: Happy to discover this. I love it when Baraka said that Baldwin “threatened Western Civilization with divinity,” and when he quoted from “The Evidence of Things Not Seen.” I was also happy to see that the effort Herb mentioned to get a New York City street named after James Baldwin was ultimately successful.
Archie Comics Reboots Archie Title!
Okay! Into the future by starting over–the nature of comics! LOL! 🙂 So that’s added to this news.
Is The Spider-Man Film Franchise Going To Another Creative Team (One At Marvel?), According To Hacked Sony Emails?
That would be sad. But it would sure make that “Civil War” crossover with Marvel Films easier!
JULY 2nd, 2015 UPDATE: YES!!!! MORE!!!!!!!!
Superhero TV And Movie Explosion!
WOW! The “Mid-Winter Finales” (a new concept for me) of the CW’s “Flash” and “Arrow” and ABC’s “Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD” were all very good!
And it’s now official: there is too much product for me to follow! LOL! Boy, be careful of what you wish for when you are 15! LOL!
Okay, It’s Official!
Oprah In A Superhero Movie?!?
I mean, if Oprah’s in a superhero movie, who would be next–Denzel?!? LOL!
A lot of really good folks have played Amanda Waller, but the best portrayal, easily, was CCH Pounder’s.
APRIL 25th UPDATE: Okay, casting update. No Oprah, but good lineup!
And, Although Not As Exciting As The “Arrow”/”Flash” Crossover…..
……..I am still excited about Part One of “Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD”‘s Mid-Winter finale Tuesday night!
