BUMBLEBEE Spoiler-Free review!
- attached image summarizes the plot. loljk (credit: Transformers (1985 - Marvel) #2)- I’m a big Transformers fan, more G1 than Bayverse (I didn’t even watch the last Michael Bay one). If you are like me, you will probably enjoy the film- if you grew up in the 80s like me, you will enjoy the film a bit more. Props to the 80s soundtrack- the plot is simple, straightforward and unambitious, unencumbered by any of Bayverse Megatron’s super-complicated plans that he has been plotting for million of years in case he gets stranded on earth- not having a plethora of autobot and decepticon characters to develop on each side means the transformers are more distinctive and easier to identify, a big problem I had with the later bayverse films- i didnt understand some scenes where it looked like the characters were talking to some kind of human soldier but I can’t see him?
X-Factor #92 cover by Joe Quesada. This is one of my favorite covers of all time (despite the hologram), but I can no longer find my physical copy of it, not sure if I sold it off before. More annoying is that the Marvel Unlimited version of this issue does not include the wraparound cover! The above image is sourced from http://marvel.wikia.com/wiki/X-Factor_Vol_1_92
Stormwatch #1 by Brandon Choi, Jim Lee, Scott Clark, Trevor Scott. I found my copy of this while cleaning up, the only issue I’ve ever read from this series. See that guy named Winter on the 2nd inside page? I remember reading this issue back in the 90s and wondering wth he was doing, it was never explained (in this issue)

Something to do: Every time you see an epal “there’s no such thing as premature campaigning” ad from one of the devil’s minions, share something about one of the lesser-known but better and vastly more deserving senatorial candidates. Here’s senatorial candidate Chel Diokno
Chel Diokno is chairman of the Free Legal Assistance Group, which Jose W. Diokno founded. It is the Philippines’ oldest and largest group of human rights lawyers.
Into the Spider-Verse spoiler-free review
- this is a great animated comic book movie, it makes me happy- I may have been a bit overhyped by the early reviews, but it was very entertaining, funny and had brilliant presentation, melding the medium of movies with comic books in a way that has never been seen before- again, the presentation is fantastic, the animation is great and intentional and the funky alternate universe stuff is represented well- IDK if I would call it the best comic book movie of all time, or even the best Spider-Man movie of all time, but definitely one of the best animated movies of all time, for a comic book fan (highly specific lol)- in fact, much respect to the writers who dared to bring this story to life.
Aquaman Spoiler-Free review!
I came in with low expectations (given DC’s history), but the movie turned out pretty good, even though it wasn’t the best comic book related thing I’ve seen this week (see previous post) it’s fun and action-packed, some fun set pieces and action sequences. Lots of CGI (as can be expected) the plot is fairly predictable, I’ve seen similar story arcs for this character more than once, things pretty much happen as you expect also the plot kinda feels a bit like black panther, except in reverse?
