Ironman Have you heard of the C.E.O of Stark Industries? What about the knight in shining armor. Then you know who Ironman is. He is a billionaire, super hero, and C.E.O of a company. I choose this topic because I love Ironman and the technology he makes. He was kidnapped by a Russian Corporation to make deadly weapons. He went through a lot of things. Tony Stark’s party was attacked and a landmine blew up and a piece of shrapnel was lodged near his heart. He was captured and forced to make…
What makes someone into a hero? Is it superpowers or a cape or an awesome costume? No, no, and no, none of these make someone into a hero. People all say that heroes have to do something major to be a hero but that isn’t true. You can go out and see that someone needs help and you go help them, does that make you a hero? I say yes it does. Even though the world taught us that heroes run around in capes and costumes, the true heroes are the ones who go out of their way to do something good for…
on July 16th. I figured I would just see a movie, just like everyone normally does. I recently picked up an interest in Marvel movies and characters and my mom had actually taken notice. “Why don’t you go to this Wizard World thing? That Stan Lee guy you talk about is going to be there, and some Walking Dead characters.” Stan Lee is one of the original people who worked with Marvel comics. She brought up the Walking Dead characters for my brother, who’s a fan of them. Wizard World is a traveling…

The article explains that Baker and Raney are researching whether or not cartoons are stereotypical and sexist or if it has changed from the first time this idea had been researched about 40 years ago. Baker and…
Superheroes movie have had a major impact on the cinematic industry for the past few years, and things don’t appear to be changing any time soon. It’s a great time to be alive for Marvel fans.

With new films constantly being added to the list, here are a few that will have comic books fans feel like they’re in heaven. Ant-Man and the Wasp An Ant-Man…
Stigma: Comic Books There is no question that the nerd ethos is active as another summer approaches presenting a plethora of superhero movies. But Hollywood supremacy aside, there is still a stigma involved in this culture. I am going to discredit some of the stereotypes. The stigma I address of is what individuals normally think of as the “nerd of comic books”. You know the type: kind of an underdog, a Star Wars or comic book fanatic, unaware of the superior world around them. Superhero movies…
example, when I hear the quote “With great power comes great responsibility.” For most that share the Marvel fandom, the majority will be able to reply back where that quote came from, which is the “Amazing Spiderman.” Before the remake. When the course first started, my research involved the search engine “Google” but with low results of what I was searching for, however I did learn how Marvel first started as well as their comeback when they almost…
Marvel movies: revolution or scam? Since Iron Man, Marvel started to develop a new model of movies: all their movies (and super -heroes) are linked all together until the big reunion of them all, like in the Avengers. They planned to do it for what they call a second “arc”: Iron Man 3, Thor 2, Captain America 2 and finally a new Avengers movie in 2016.
