Echo finally has her own show! It’s been a wild ride since the debut of Maya Lopez in 2021’s Hawkeye series. Between rumors of rewrites (true), reshoots (true), and problems with quality (blatantly untrue), the series dropped the full five episode season in early 2024 on Disney+ & Hulu. So who is Echo and what is she doing in the MCU? We breakdown …

The Fall of X has finally concluded, but was it with a whimper or a bang?

Over the last four years, Marvel Comics has initiated a lot of refreshes on their big name properties, from the start of the Krakoan Age to the first semester at Strange Academy. So many books got a big reset to their status quo. Today, a lot of those stories are winding down, or have already moved into their next era, from the Fall of the House of…

Halloween is unlike any other holiday in the Marvel Universe – a winter-holiday story about Christmas, Hanukkah, or Yule needs that sweet spot publishing date of Oct, Nov, or Dec; while there’s always a bit of romance in a title, Feb really hits it with Valentine’s Day; and it’s only ever Flag Day, Memorial Day, or Veteran’s Day in Cap Comics – but…

Daredevil is a complicated hero – DD historically sits at the bottom of the top tier heroes (save for a dynamic once-every-decade redefining run), mixing dark magic ninjas with Irish-Catholic guilt like few comics can, and – in great part due to a shared pool of creators – is regularly seen as a crimson-imitation of Batman (and sometimes, they even…

The nature of the shifting comic book news cycle means readers often see covers, know plots, teams, creators, and more sometimes as much as six months in advance of release, leaving readers in holding patterns where the nature of what’s out now vs what’s coming next can become confusing. At other times, the announcements can aggressively infringe o…

When Marvel fans think of classic friendships, Daredevil and Spider-Man often comes to mind first. While many of the earliest stories lack the exact magic that later tales would contain, this early story is filled with memorable moments and a battle with the Masked Marauder. But really, it’s about the power of community the two characters manage to…

The Ox was not the most memorable villain Daredevil had in the earliest issues o the title, but Ox’s second appearance, while rote with tropes that were common to the era, manages to finally reclaim the energy that once belonged to the title. The transition of artists, writers, and genre left Daredevil languishing, like the wrong mind in the wrong …
