When I was a kid, I used to think superheroes had to be all flashy powers and serious faces to be cool. Then I came across Squirrel Girl – a hero with squirrel powers (yeah, squirrels) who somehow defeated Doctor Doom by straight-up flooding him with an army of furry rodents. It sounded so ridiculous, …
I remember the first time I saw a panel of the green-skinned, mysterious figure lurking in the background of an old comic. I thought, “Is this some forgotten villain? Maybe an alternate Hulk?” Turns out, I was way off. That green guy is Aarkus, better known as the Golden Age Vision, and his story is …
I’ve always loved Marvel’s villains – they’re often as fascinating as the heroes, if not more so. But one character stands out for me as truly terrifying: The Maker. The first time I read about him, I was blown away by how dark and complex he was. He’s not your average bad guy; he’s a …
When I first heard Adam Warlock was going to appear in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, I was thrilled. He’s one of those characters in the Marvel universe who feels larger-than-life – a cosmic powerhouse with endless potential. But then I saw the movie, and I’ll admit, I was a little underwhelmed.

I’ve been a Marvel fan for as long as I can remember, back when watching X-Men movies with friends was a weekend tradition.

I still remember the first time I spotted Howard the Duck in Guardians of the Galaxy. My reaction was a mix of laughter and confusion. I thought, Wait, is that really a talking duck in the MCU? Fast forward to Avengers: Endgame, and there he was again, not just as a random cameo but fighting …
When you think of “Deadpool,” you probably imagine a blockbuster smash and a cultural phenomenon. But what if I told you the journey to bring this antihero to the big screen wasn’t just difficult, but also came with a surprisingly modest paycheck for the film’s director, Tim Miller? A Big Break with a Small Paycheck …
When I was a kid, I loved watching Hulk in cartoons and comics. He was the ultimate powerhouse – unstoppable and always ready to smash anything in his way. So, when I started watching the MCU, I expected to see that same Hulk, but something felt different. He wasn’t dominating every fight, and sometimes, he …
The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is full of complex characters, but when it comes to bad parenting, Odin takes the cake. The All-Father might be the ruler of Asgard, but his parenting skills leave a lot to be desired. Let’s get into why Odin might just be the worst father in the MCU, and how …
