The Man Of Steel…Trailer

Spokhette — Wed, 12 Dec 2012 03:40:31 +0000

I will be honest. I have NEVER liked Superman. I feel he is unrelatable, I feel he is too perfect to be a real superhero. I don’t like him for the same reason I don’t like Wonder Woman. I can’t relate to his issues. Reason One being because he barely has any to start with except for the death of his parents, (I’m sorry) But a lot of Heroes have to deal with that, and when he got to earth he got parents what did Bruce get? Alfred. Reason Two, his weakness is a rock. A Shiny Green Rock. He Can Fly, Help run the Justice league, beat almost every member except batman, and his weakness is a green shiny rock…Does anybody else see the disconnect here? I’m just saying, I’ve never seen him as anything more than a whiny over powered reporter. Having gotten that out of the way, The new trailer for the Man of Steel, a NEW movie about Superman ( Not a horribly re-done copy and paste job of movies 2-3 has come out) and I think the movie might be decent.

Here’s to hoping,

Spokhette — Mon, 03 Dec 2012 03:30:57 +0000

Welcome to December, geekettes.

A few things to go over for the Comics section of the mag.

1.) I am in the process of collecting amazing comic book writers to interview. Soon there will be polls that you can interact in, and an email for you to send your questions. I wanna know what you would like to ask your Comic Book idols and icons.

2.)I will be attending two conventions in the next month. Armagedicon and Ohayocon. Both of which will be liveconned. Live Conning: is what I like to call live reporting at a convention. Live video, walkthroughs, pictures, articles about the convention as I experience them, so you can experience them with me. 19 days left for that and then I’m off to Columbus.

3.)There will be a lot more posts soon gang, thanks for staying faithful and being patient with us.
