Five Predictions for The CW’s CRISIS ON INFINITE EARTHS
Following this year’s Elseworlds, The CW is prepping for its biggest Arrowverse crossover yet in 2019’s Crisis on Infinite Earths. Based on the comic of the same name, this is the event that the shows have been building up to for years. The comic saw the deaths of iconic heroes, the merging of worlds, and so much more.

Review: TIGER & BUNNY
In the world of Tiger and Bunny, you are only allowed to be a superhero if you get the most views, fandom points, as well as a sponsorship that sponsor you. In this story, we follow the hero Wild Tiger, an aging superhero that is close to losing his sponsor and therefore his job. One day, his heroic life changes when his employers forced him to get a crimefighting partner. This anime is what would happen if X-Men and The Boys had a lovechild (although not as graphic or violent). It tackles the question of what’s right and what’s wrong, self-identity and all that jazz, and every answer they have…

Retrospective: THE SPECTACULAR SPIDER-MAN
Spider-Man is one of the most popular characters in all of fiction. He’s the mascot of Marvel and a part of the big three superheroes, alongside both Batman and Superman.

Spectacular focus on Peter Parker’s life in high school. He’s been Spider-Man for about six months at the start of the first episode. He’s not in his prime yet, but he’s also not a…

FLASH SPOILER Review: Episode 5×08- “What’s Past is Prologue”
The Flash (5×08)- “What’s Past is Prologue” 100th Episode Written by: Todd Helbing & Lauren Certo Directed by: Tom Cavanagh In case you’re unaware of the significance, traditionally when shows reach one hundred episodes they are made available to syndication meaning that local stations can buy the rights to previous seasons to air locally. Traditionally this is where a lot shows become truly profitable to the studio as most shows ride that razor’s edge between success and cancelation. What this means in this age of seasons going up on Netflix as the shows go along is unclear to me but that’s not why you came here. Speaking of tradition, most shows mark the occasion in one of three ways.…
