1995 When Iron Man got the MCU ball rolling over ten years ago, it was the first and last big risk that Marvel took on the big screen. Since that time, the films have been released at calculated times with specific intent and they’ve all been financially profitable. While characters such as Captain America andContinue reading “Marvel At This?”

Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse

I’m A Spidey, You’re A Spidey….
