Who is James Hudson Jr?
For those of you who don't know, the Marvel Universe has countless alternate realities. Well, it did up until an event called Secret Wars, and I'm not really going to go into that, but it was a huge event that led to the end of the multiverse (or so we thought). Among these infinite worlds was the main Marvel Universe (Earth 616). Earth 616 is essentially where most comics that Marvel publishes will take place. But in the 2000s, I believe Marvel Comics wanted to start a new line of comics that were centered mostly around the real world, or a world as similar to ours as they could get while making superpowers a possible thing. The Ultimate universe (Earth 1610) was similar to the main Marvel Universe, but just that certain things were different. For example, Earth-616 Spider-Man is Peter Parker, but in Earth 1610, Spider-Man is Miles Morales (the Ultimate Peter Parker died). So the Ultimate universe's Wolverine was very similar to The Wolverine, but he too was killed off, and his son, James Hudson Jr., took his place as Wolverine.

Why I Loved Jared Leto as the Joker
There is a lot of hate out there for Jared Leto's interpretation of the Joker. I know I'm late to this conversation, but I saw the movie like two years after it came out and when I did, I had a set of fresh eyes, uninfluenced by the opinion of others, and I loved Jared Leto as the Joker.

Thor’s Magic Belt: Stormbreaker Might Not Just Be the Only Weapon to Look out for in 'Avengers 4'
Although Thor: Ragnarok did mock Thor for recognizing himself as the strongest Avenger, Avengers: Infinity War removed all doubts as to his capabilities. One might even consider the God of Thunder as the strongest indeed yet (We know Captain Marvel is a strong contender).

Why Didn’t Captain Marvel Make an Entrance Sooner in the MCU And Have to Wait for Nick Fury’s Message?
Avengers: Infinity War was heaven for all comic book fans out there, featuring the most awaited clash between our favorite superheroes and the Mad Titan. Thanos has been dying to make an entrance since making the first peek-a-boo in the post credit scene of Avengers (2012). He was definitely influential and has been long tagged as the "villain with a heart." With the Infinity Stones, the team-ups, Black Order and so much more, this 2 hours and 36 minutes long film was the best Marvel movie to date. And if that wasn’t enough, the post-credit scene took everyone’s last breath away.

Why Scarlet Witch is the Most Badass Character in the MCU
This is a topic that has spurred many an argument amongst my nerd friends and I. I will fight for Scarlet Witch to the death and here’s why; the character is played by the beautiful and graceful Elizabeth Olsen, who is not only gorgeous but one of the most kickass actresses on set as she doesn’t have anything tactile to act with. She has to wave her hands around and throw them at a tennis ball. Imagine as an actor how difficult that is, how well you have to know your character as yourself. I have been an actress for a long time and Elizabeth Olsen is incredible.

The Hero We Deserve: 10 Actresses Who Could Play Batwoman in the Arrowverse
Just a couple of days ago the star of Arrow himself, Stephen Amell, confirmed in an interview that Batwoman will be introduced in the next Arrowverse crossover, and fans couldn't be more excited. Batwoman is one of the most popular characters in comics and one of the most underrepresented characters in other media, meaning that her live-action debut is one of most exciting additions to the Arrowverse in recent memory. While she's likely to only be a one-time guest star, there are still a handful of big actresses who would want to don the cowl in such an anticipated arrival, and I think I have a few likely candidates for the role.

April 18th, 2018: Superman turned 80 years old, and also on this day, the 1,000th issue of Action Comics was released.In 1938, Superman made his comic book debut as the first real superhero. The Man of Steel and his alias, Clark Kent, has inspired millions of people and generations all over the world. Superman is a proud advocate of talking about fighting for truth, justice, and the American way. He may be a fictional character, but he continues to be adored by countless fans everywhere. On his birthday, I have shared and reposted numerous pictures of people showing love to their favorite character. Most of those pictures were of cosplayers dressing up in full costume.
