For some seventy-five years now, Detective Comics, better known as DC Comics, has been inspiring the imaginations of children and adults alike. To help celebrate the occasion and provide fans with an interesting look into this history of DC, a DVD documentary was created known as Secret Origin: The Story of DC Comics.

Iron Man: Extremis is due out at the end of the month and features the Extremis storyline that was written by Warren Ellis and Adi Granov. This newest Marvel Motion Comic pits Iron Man against a mutated man who was injected with the Extremis serum that has given him incredible power.

“I only draw my guns if there’s killing to be done” Sound familiar? Well this is not a line from an old Clint Eastwood western, but rather from The Gunslingers.

Math might not be very fun, but this movie is alright!  This release by Magnolia Pictures starring Elijah Wood and John Hurt directed by Alex De La Iglesia centers around a series of murders that take place in Oxford in the present day.  Like most mysteries, there is a lull, but the beginning and end make it worth sitting through a bit of an arithmetic lesson.

The Frog Brothers have returned! Well, sorta. Lost Boys continues the vampire fighting with another edition of the movie series in Lost Boys: The Thirst.

When I saw the trailer for Jonah Hex, a comic character I hadn't heard of before, I was very excited. Seeing Josh Brolin in a rough role as a revenge seeking soldier is enough to be stoked.
