Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
We are so absolutely delighted to share this first official walkthrough video of Disneyland’s brand new California Adventure area, the Avengers Campus! Obviously themed after Marvel Studios’ massive worldwide cinematic phenomenons, the new area pulls from various MCU films and characters, including “Spider-Man,” “The Avengers,” and “Ant-Man.” The new area will be opening officially on June 4th, 2021. Read all about it on Disney’s Park Blogs here.
Thank you, so very much to whomever at Marvel Studios and Disney+ decided to release this video. If you’re not caught up on the most recent episode of “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier,” chances are you missed this gem of a scene. Daniel Brühl, back as Baron Helmut Zemo, joins Anthony Mackie and Sebastian Stan as Sam Wilson and Bucky Barnes on a mission. Not just ANY mission either, but one that sees the trio visiting a club in Madripoor. Please enjoy this hour-long video of nothing but Zemo dancing. We’re pretty sure this is what we’ll all look…
E3 2021 will be virtual, and we’re pretty excited to see all the latest in video games during the June 12th-15th 2021 event.
Bless Jimmy Fallon for fulfilling our childhood dream too- playing N64 “Goldeneye 007” with Pierce Brosnan!
Imagine purchasing a piece of comics history like a copy of Action Comics #1. How would you even put a price on what has become one of the most important pieces of the art form? With the launching of Superman, Action Comics #1 is unlike any other book of its day.A recent ComicsConnect auction saw the sale of an 8.5 rated Action Comics #1 for a price of $3.25 million. This breaks a previous record for the issue (which was a 9.0), set in 2014. As CNN reports, this particular item was found at the bottom of a pile of…
We’re not sure how to take this first clip from “Ghostbusters: Afterlife.” Sure, on the surface, it looks cute and all. But as with the last “Ghostbusters” addition, something felt…off.The first new clip from the Sony Pictures film was released this morning. Paul Rudd gets the most screen time, with a little “Ant-Man” easter egg for fans. (I mean look at the Baskin Robins! They always find out!) And, perhaps the most surprising addition…mini Stay Puft marshmallow men. Finn Wolfhard (“Stranger Things“), Mckenna Grace (“Captain Marvel“), and Logan Kim are the young stars for “Ghostbusters: Afterlife,” and they’ll be joined by Carrie Coon (“Fargo“) and Paul Rudd (“Ant-Man“), as well…
More and more details as to just how bad Joss Whedon was to work with for the cast and crew of “Justice League” continue to surface. There had been rumors from the set for a long time to this effect, going so far as to say the replacement director had threatened multiple stars. This new report is part of the fairly in-depth article The Hollywood Reporter published this morning, diving deep into all of Ray Fisher’s allegations against Whedon. It’s not pretty. And those who have known about Whedon’s behavior for decades should absolutely be ashamed of their part in…
Yet another big “Star Trek” announcement from today’s official First Contact Day celebrations comes in the form of a new event. Perhaps you’ll recall the annual Star Trek: Las Vegas event that used to be produced by Creation Entertainment, which subsequently went away (after they theoretically lost the license for the brand). Today, ViacomCBS / Paramount announced a brand new inaugural event is heading to Chicago in 2022 from ReedPop. This isn’t ReedPop’s first Star Trek: Mission event, and we’re curious to see how they handle the event going forward. Each year, Star Trek: Mission ______ will travel to a…

We are so absolutely delighted to share this “Star Trek” news with you on this glorious First Contact Day! Paramount+ released an all new teaser for the upcoming second season of “Star Trek: Picard,” and it’s awesome. Specifically, the return of one of the most notable adversaries of Captain Jean Luc Picard and crew- the omnipitant Q played by John de Lancie. “Q’s arrival is, as it often was, unexpected,” Sir Patrick Steward says. “It also comes in a shattering moment in an episode, and I do mean a shattering moment. There is significant trauma. There are events coming up…
