Keanu Reeves is making headlines again after joining the cast of Paramount‘s Sonic the Hedgehog 3 as the voice of Shadow the Hedgehog by engaging in talks to star in Triangle of Sadness director Ruben Östlund’s next feature, The Entertainment System Is Down.
Variety broke the news on Friday. Still, details about the plot remain a mystery. Östlund says The Entertainment System Is Down is a social satire set on a long-haul flight with a faulty entertainment system. As boredom spreads throughout the cabin, rage starts to overwhelm the passengers. Chaos ensues. The idea for Östlund’s next feature is something he’s been building for years. The filmmaker says he’s been collecting anecdotes to use as inspiration for The Entertainment System Is Down, with several years of material at his disposal. Though it likely involves dark comedy and sharp humor, Reeves’s role remains a mystery.

I’m assuming if you are reading this that you like superhero comics. I certainly do. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy taking in a lot of different genres, but ultimately always come back to the big guys in tights punching each other. And yes, sometimes that does get a little bit samey. It’s always nice when something a little different is tried, especially taking well established characters out of their comfort zones, and that’s the prime reason this issue is sat in front of me now. As part of the Fantastic Four Ben Grimm’s adventures have normally been one third soap opera, one third action, and one third science fiction/ cosmic style adventures. Always fun, but pretty predictable. This book looks anything but predictable, that superb cover giving you the first indication this...

The unstoppable big bad of Deadpool 2 isn't allowed in the X-Men's clubhouse, so Juggernaut is off to figure out his place in the world.
Since the 1960s, the Juggernaut has always been a major part of the X-Men corner of Marvel. Even though – much like Dr. Doom – he’s one of those villains who can be plugged in against any hero, Juggernaut’s existence always comes back to his origins as Charles Xavier’s demented half-brother. Over the years, he’s become something of an antihero at times or at least on the cusp of true reform. He joined the X-Men for a time and became a member of the Thunderbolts. Recently, his return to villainy was based on Xavier’s not-so-permanent death at the hands of Cyclops, as Cain Marko realized that he actually kind of loved his step-brother for always believing in him.

After years of putting the X-Men comic books on the backburner, Marvel has finally moved the spotlight back to the mutant superheroes. Among the many new titles being launched is Astonishing X-Men from writer Charles Soule and artist Jim Cheung, though the latter will only be sticking around for one issue.
That’s because Marvel’s big idea here is to have someone new join Soule each issue, with the likes of Aco, Phil Noto, Greg Land, Ramon Rosanas and Ron Garney all being lined up for subsequent instalments. What’s even more exciting though is we now know that fans can expect to see the return of Amahl Farouk, Aka the Shadow King.
If you watch Legion, you’ll already be familiar with the X-Men villain, and Soule has promised that we can expect big things from him in this series.
“He’s this incredibly ancient force of darkness – kind of a dream demon.

Although there will certainly be no shortage of titles featuring your favorite mutants over the next few months, one in particular that’s especially eye-catching is that of Astonishing X-Men. We could probably chat all day about why it’s so appealing, whether it be due to paying homage to the lauded book once penned by Joss Whedon or the fact that a “familiar menace has once again reared its ugly head – reborn, renewed and resurrected.”
Personally, I think the lineup of characters can sell the book on its own: Old Man Logan, Archangel, Mystique, Rogue, Gambit, Bishop, Psylocke and Fantomex. Seriously, how can anybody who had any measure of exposure to the X-Men during the 1990’s not be the slightest bit intrigued by that crew?
Perhaps that’s something writer Charles Soule is aware of, even subconsciously, but it sounds like he put together his own personal dream team,...

Although Daredevil may not have billion dollar box office grosses under his belt as Captain America or Iron Man do, that doesn’t change the fact that he’s one of Marvel’s oldest and most beloved characters. In addition to dazzling fans with his Netflix series, his recent comic book adventures have intrigued many, thanks to superstar writer Charles Soule.
Being a lawyer himself, Soule is no doubt a perfect choice to write for ol’ Hornhead. Having taken the character back to his roots after the wildly popular and adventurous Mark Waid run, various traditional aspects have been restored such as Matt Murdock once again having a secret identity.
For some characters, like Tony Stark, having their identity out in the open works. For others, it’s hard to imagine otherwise, an example of...

Comic Books 101: Six Marvel Comics Series You Should Be Reading!
Right now Marvel Comics are hurting in a big way. They haven’t been breaking the top 10 in sales, and DC is kicking their butt thanks to the big Rebirth initiative taking place. The indie market is getting saturated with some seriously top level books, and all of that combined with “event overload” is making Marvel seriously have to rethink their plans. I, personally put some blame on the horribly plotted Civil War II event taking place currently that many fans are turning on. Still there are a few diamonds in the rough however, and I will list six series right now that shouldn’t be missed, are not directly bogged down by Civil War II or any other event, and include some amazing creative teams.

Totally Awesome Hulk #6
Story: Greg Pak Art: Mike Choi Colors: Andrew Crossley
Review: Greg Pak turns in another fun chapter in the “Chulks” life, as Amadeus experiences the fun “misunderstanding/fight/team up against villain” encounter with Thor. Last issue Hulk was brainwashed into doing something pretty bad for Enchantress and now he must make things right. The story loosely ties into the struggles Thor is going through in her own book at the moment with Malekith nicely, and I enjoyed the continuity there. Mike Choi continues to deliver some absolutely spectacular art and really is a stand out to keep an eye on, along with the beautiful colors by Andrew Crossley. The series continues to be entertaining and nice departure from the old “Hulk Smash” story lines.

Story: Brian Michael Bendis Art: Alex Maleev
Synopsis:
The mystery of Tony's real parents reveals some truths behind the history of the Marvel Universe that have been kept hidden for decades. Can Tony unravel the mystery before deadly history repeats itself?
Review:
More details are revealed about Tony’s relationship with Cassandra and how it might be the cause for all his current relationship problems. Also it’s hinted at in current times, Cassandra might know something about Tony’s real parents. A bit of a “filler” issue, but still some excellent art from Alex Maleev. Might be worth skipping and just getting a trade later on.
