I guess U.S. Agent and Red Guardian are going to be the Thunderbolts movie together? Apparently, somebody at Marvel and I were on the same wavelength, for once! I doubt it’ll ever happen again! I’ve brought up my beloved West Coast Avengers a time or two before, as one of the guiding lights for the…
Welcome back, once again, to the “main story,” where we’re continuing to deal with the fallout from the Red Skull and HYDRA’s ambush of Spider-Man, and his resulting injuries, both physical and by the media! Now, today, we try to consider how a fallen hero might impact those who’ve looked up to him; in this…
I found a few more funny things around my desk for Skurge to add to his collection. I don’t break the “reality” of the Phil Wrede Marvel Action Figure Comic Universe very often, but when I do, I hope the joke is worth it!
Ordinarily, guests come on talk shows to promote recent or upcoming projects. Thus far, in my revival of Space Ghost’s talk show, he’s had on the star of a failed cinematic universe kickoff (Bloodshot), a robot who appeared in one movie in 1979 (V.I.N.C.E.N.T.), and the protagonist of The Matrix (Neo). It’s somehow fitting, then,…
While this comic strip isn’t a pure continuation of the events of Spider-Man’s No Good, Very Bad Night, they’re connected closely enough that I’d like to recommend Part 1 and Part 2 to you, if you’ve not had occasion to read them, yet. I think my favorite J. Jonah Jameson moments are the ones when…
After an extremely long break, the Fenris Rangers make a triumphant return! Since it’s been so long, let me hit the high points of the last installment: while aboard a wrecked Cardassian craft in what used to be the Romulan Neutral Zone, Tom Riker, the Doctor, and their Chalnoth crewmate found a Vidiian corpse, with…
Skurge is absolutely one of my favorite MCU characters (played, helpfully, by one of my favorite actors, Karl Urban – I ask again, where is my Dredd sequel/TV series?). As a fellow collector of things that don’t impress or amaze nearly as many people as I hoped they would when I began collection, the pain…
Picking up shortly after the previous full-length comic strip left off (the Fabulous Fiftieth Full-Length entry in the Phil Wrede Marvel Action Figure Comic Universe!), we’ve got ourselves another appearance from Clint Barton, Hawkguy himself, and the introduction of a few other familiar faces (although, Spider-Man did earlier reference his fraught relationship with She-Hulk)! Even…
It seemed, to me, like a logical step to have Domino wade even deeper into the waters of institutional power by drafting her into a mayoral campaign. Despite how overburdened NYC City Hall, the NYPD, and some nebulous element of the state government apparently are with HYDRA sympathies, there are people walking the corridors of…
Fifty strips in the “main” story of the Phil Wrede Marvel Action Figure Comic Universe! Fifty! 5-0! It’s as arbitrary a number to celebrate as any other number, but this is a lot of comic strips (for me)! I wish I could say that I’d had this dramatic, cliff-hanger-y Spider-Man tale planned in celebration for…
