Marvel Teasing MAJOR Spider-Man/Venom Event In 2017

14.00 Bilal Chamdy No comments

Marvel is ramping up for its upcoming Inhumans vs X-Men event, an anticipated falling out that has already claimed its share of victims. It turns out though that Marvel has another big event planned for 2017, and it includes two fan favorite characters.

In the Inhumans vs X-Men calendar that was recently shipped out to retailers, there is an insert advertising the upcoming Venom #150. The cover has Venom galloping up the side of a building, and he's carrying a certain web-slinger in his hand. It looks like there are big things coming from this event, as the text statesÂ "The biggest Venom story in ten years!".

It's dated May 2017, so there is some time left for more details to surface, and whatever fallout is coming from The Clone Conspiracy will have either become the new normal or subsided by the time this is set to launch.

Venom and Spider-Man are frequent sparring partners, but they've also worked together on more than one occasion. Spider-Man has never worked wit this version of Venom, though, as the black symbiote recently got a new host named Lee Price. Price and the symbioteÂ aren't getting off to that warm of a start, and it seems the symbiote is attempting to go away from its violent past. Lee doesn't want anythingÂ to do with passivity, though, and it should be interesting to see this new host and suit combo interact with everyone's favorite Webhead.

While it's assumed that the host is Price, the #150 aspect could mean it's a different host. The event could also result in a return from several previous hosts of the suit, including Eddie Brock, but that is all conjecture at this point.

You can view the cover in the gallery.

Marvelâ€™s swamp monster Man-Thing was last seen in the pages of the now-canceled Howling Commandos of S.H.I.E.L.D. earlier this year, but the iconic monster isnâ€™t staying down long. Man-Thing is now getting his own five-part miniseries, and itâ€™s going to be written by none other than Goosebumps scribe R.L. Stine.

Stine, who is 73, has never written a comic book before, though he told the New York Times that itâ€™s always been a dream of his: â€œMy first ambition was to be a comic book artist. I started doing these little comic books in the fourth grade: â€˜Super Stooge,â€™ the dumbest hero on earth. I was terrible. I had no choice but to be a writer.â€

Stine, who actually dropped a hint in October that this news was coming during a Reddit AMA, already has his own swamp monster, but he said for this series he was inspired by classic horror comics like Tales From the Crypt: â€œThey were scary, really gruesome, bloody comics and they always had a twist ending. I think theyâ€™ve been a major influence in everything Iâ€™ve done since.â€

But true to Stineâ€™s style, the series wonâ€™t be all horror. â€œIâ€™m going to do a lot of action and a lot of great violence and make it creepy, but Iâ€™m going to make it funny at the same time,â€ he said. â€œItâ€™s what I try to do in my books.â€

Based on the short plot synopsis given, the book definitely sounds comical. Man-Thing will be traveling to HollywoodÂ because heâ€™s â€œwondering why he is not starring in a major motion picture.â€ Stine also said that Man-Thing â€œcan talk and heâ€™s very sarcastic,â€ which is a pretty stark break from continuity, where Man-Thing has (almost) always been a silent, stoic character.

Covers for the series will be done by Tyler Crook, best known for the horror comics B.P.R.D. Hell on Earth and Harrow County. Interior artwork will be handled by German Peralta, whoâ€™s drawing the comic version of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Daniel Johnson, whose only other Marvel credit was Quake #1.

The first issue of Stineâ€™s five-part Man-Thing miniseries will arrive in March. You can see the first issueâ€™s cover and three unlettered pages of the comic below.

James Gunn's Fake Idea For A Marvel Movie Will Never Happen But Still Sounds Awesome

07.30 Bilal Chamdy No comments

Crossovers are one of the major things that have made the Marvel Cinematic Universe such a joy to watch. Unfortunately, there are some crossovers that are almost guaranteed to never happen. Even if they totally should. As it happens, James Gunn and Vincent D'Onofrio are huge fans of each other. D'Onofrio would really like to be part of any Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 were it to happen, but James Gunn has an even better idea that we love.

As James Gunn says in his tweet, maybe they should just do something else, because Kingpin vs Baby Groot is just about the least likely MCU crossover to ever happen. First and foremost there's the Marvel movie vs TV problem that has thus far kept any of the members of Marvel's television series out of the movies. There are simply so many moving parts that it's nearly impossible to get the schedules of the two things in the proper sync. Add to that the fact that the two entities are run through different chains of command, and it's entirely possible that we'll never see a Marvel TV character in the movies.

On top of that, putting these two together would just be the most tonally dissonate thing we can think of. >Daredevil is on of Marvel's darkest series while Guardians of the Galaxy is a much lighter film. We can't even imagine what a character like Kingpin would be thinking when confronted with Baby Groot. His brain would explode. So would ours.

At the same time, of course, we want to see it. We love Vincent D'Onofrio and James Gunn too and would love to see them work together. Of course, there's nothing that says that we can't see D'Onofrio in a future Guardians movie as some other character. As well established as the Kingpin may be, Marvel has previously said that the same actor getting cast in more than one role is still a possibility. We've even seen the likes of Alfre Woodard get cast in different roles within Marvel TV and movies. Her film role was essentially a cameo, but still. It could happen.

We'd love to see Vincent O'Onofrio in the next Guardians of the Galaxy because he's an excellent actor, he can be the Kingpin or he can be somebody else. We don't really care. You know Marvel comics occasionally does "What If?" stories that look at potential changes to the Marvel universe. How about a series of shorts that put random characters together outside of the established canon? Kingpin vs. Baby Groot sounds like a great place to start.

â€˜Marvel Vs. Capcom 4â€™: Is Capcom Preparing To Reveal New Fighting Game At PlayStation Experience? [Rumor]

23.29 Bilal Chamdy No comments

Could it be time to tag into big combos and assists in a new fighting game?

Rumors have begun to spread like wildfire. The Marvel Vs. Capcom series is rumored to be getting a new installment, and the internet is abuzz with the hopes that developer Capcom will listen to their hype.

The Marvel Vs. Capcom community has been wanting this to happen for years. Support for Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 is nonexistent, and the game has been left for players to figure out what remaining tech they can get out of it. Even players such as IFC Yipes, perhaps the most iconic individual to have stepped onto the Marvel scene, is hoping that a new title is in the works.

Is Marvel Vs. Capcom 4 Really in the Works? https://t.co/EA6lIrLJDb pic.twitter.com/cC2XNPtvgP

â€" Comic Book Resources (@CBR) November 27, 2016

It would make sense that Marvel Vs. Capcom 4 be turned into a reality. The reception of rumors alone has sparked prayers from fighting game enthusiasts. In terms of hype and excitement, Marvel Vs. Capcom exhibition and tournament matches are among the most explosive and unpredictable. Of course, this has dwindled over time. As with all things, even the most complex of tech is able to be hidden from those who hope to crack the game for its ridiculous combos and strategies. Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 has seen its fair share of Doom, Morrigan, Vergil, Sentinel, and Akuma. The list goes on, and a new Marvel Vs. Capcom game would breathe new life into players and their desire to pick up the sticks.

Where did the rumors originate? According to a report by Eventhubs, leaked images have surfaced across the internet that appear to be in reference to a new Marvel Vs. Capcom title. As you can see, the number â€œ4â€ stands alone with their respective logos beneath it. Many reports thereafter have stated that these images are fake, but fans are hoping that thereâ€™s still something in the works.

Why wouldnâ€™t Capcom want to jump on the opportunity to bring out a new game of such epic possibility? It would certainly help in the financial department. Pro gamers and casuals alike can enjoy the insanity of watching multiple characters duke it out in teams of three. Ryu beating the stuffing out of Wolverine again? Vice versa? Dream matches are achieved through the inclusion of each companyâ€™s iconic characters jumping onto consoles and arcades.

No updates for Marvel Vs Capcom 4 on the horizon https://t.co/woGIYqYwfm

â€" GMA News (@gmanews) November 22, 2016

Still, the hype for Marvel Vs. Capcom 4 is just that: hype. According to Tech Raptor, director Ryota Niitsuma has all but crushed the hopes of fans with Twitter posts debunking the rumor that a new game was in development. He responded to inquiry about Marvel Vs. Capcom 4.

haha Reaction is fast! It's a really good idea. but Unfortunately I'm not in that division right now. @JWonggg marvel 4?

â€" Ryota Niitsuma (@Ryota_Niitsuma) July 18, 2016

Thanks for keeping the love for the game going! I would love to make #mvc4, but nothing's happening on that front. RT @PG_Erdogan @JWonggg N

â€" Ryota Niitsuma (@Ryota_Niitsuma) September 27, 2016

As you can see, it looks as though we wonâ€™t be seeing a new title for some time. Fans remain hopeful, as the cry for a new Marvel Vs. Capcom is visually evident.

Whatever the case, Marvel Vs. Capcom 4 would be a step in the right direction. Of course, there would be plenty of licensing and other tape to cross. It wouldnâ€™t be easy to throw characters into the mix without the proper steps being taken, but that would be a small drop in the bucket of hype that Marvel Vs. Capcom has developed over the years.

For now, games like Street Fighter V and Tekken 7 will have to satisfy fighting game players. Both games have plenty of life in them, and you can bet that weâ€™ll be seeing support for these titles and others for a long time.

What are your thoughts on the possibility of Marvel Vs. Capcom 4? Do you believe that a new title would boost or harm the community as a whole? Let us know your thoughts in the comment section below.

Iron Fist 'is no white saviour' in Netflix's newest Marvel show

02.30 Bilal Chamdy No comments

Game of Thrones actor Finn Jones enters the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Iron Fist

Netflix

WIRED recently visited the set of Marvel's Iron Fist, observing how Netflix shoots and converts a show for 4K HDR video quality.

While behind the scenes, we spoke with Iron Fist showrunner Scott Buck and Allie Goss, Netflix's vice president of Original series. Here, the creators discuss the genesis of the series, controversy over the casting, and the impact of Marvel's superheroes.

[embedded content]

Iron Fist is the fourth of the originally announced Marvel series, following Daredevil, Jessica Jones, and Luke Cage, and leading into team-up series The Defenders. While the heroes chosen for the crossover are all "street level" characters, Iron Fist himself is the most supernaturally tinged.

Power-wise, he's no Thor, but Danny Rand â€" Iron Fist's secret identity - did grow up in a mystical realm known as K'un-Lun, where he trained in martial arts and fighting skills long lost to the mortal world. He eventually gained the power and title of the Iron Fist; the ability to channel his chi into explosive strikes. Don't expect to see too much of that backstory laid bare in the first season, though.

"The mythological aspect, we sort of keep as a mystery that lingers throughout the series. We haven't fully explored it in this first season," Buck tells WIRED. "We approach Danny Rand as a person, and try to see the world through his eyes. As for the flashiness of the fist, it's dealt with in what we hope is the most realistic way possible.

Colleen Wing (Jessica Henwick), Danny Rand, and recurring Marvel supporting character Claire Temple (Rosario Dawson) are the core trio of Iron Fist

Netflix

The mythological aspects of the character could have made him the hardest character to fit into the mix â€" and indeed, is probably the reason Iron Fist was last in the line-up to debut, giving the creators longer to get their approach just right. For Buck, it was Danny Rand's personality that appealed most, though, as well as the opportunity to explore who he is after he returns to present day New York after being presumed lost and dead for decades.

"To me, when I first encountered the character, it seemed to me like these were not the greatest super powers in the world. Like, 'all he can do is punch really hard?'," Buck recalls. "But that's sort of what appealed to me about it â€" he has this one gift, and he can use it some ways, but in the rest of [his] life, it's just not all that significant."

"[Danny's] greatest gift is just his martial arts skills, and that's not a super power â€" that's something he struggled for and earned by training day and night throughout his whole childhood," he continues. "So from that perspective, we do try to keep it very real and grounded."

From Goss' perspective, the human side of the characters is what's been most important about the Marvel shows Netflix has produced so far.

"What we've strived to do together, both on this show and prior, is just to tell a great character driven story first, and a superhero story second," Goss says. "We don't want to downplay powers or abilities, or the fact these characters are derived out of comics and graphic novels â€" that's what's so special about them. But we want to expose them in a way where you really get to see the character's story, that's a little more aimed towards adults and explores these people in a way beyond just the 'superhero'. That feels a little generic, given how deep these characters have the ability to be."

The capacity of the comics to tell compelling, character-driven stories first and super-powered fables second was what originally impressed Goss about the source material. Discovering there was such depth to them initially came as a surprise.

"I remember when I first started reading comics years ago, I literally called a friend who was into them and I was like 'oh my gosh, these are just good stories!'," she says. "I didn't realise that, but once you get into it, they're rich full characters with so much to explore."

Netflix

Long-time comics fans are well aware of that depth, and the decades of continuity that some characters have. It's a trick the Netflix Marvel shows have been employing since the first season of Daredevil, where packets of drugs being distributed by crime lord Wilson Fisk â€" the Kingpin â€" bear the insignia of the Steel Serpent, one of Danny's major foes from the printed page.

"Sometimes things are done because they're fun, just drop them in and go 'Eh, the next series will figure them out!'," Buck says of the continuity between the series. "There's a bit of that, but I do speak to the other showrunners, and because we are leading into The Defenders, we have to leave our show in a very specific place [but] we do plant seeds and stories that will then come to fruition."

Ultimately, each series also needs to stand on its own merits though. Buck continues, "there does have to be a lot of co-operation between the different groups but other than that, we work distinctly by ourselves."

The production of Iron Fist hasn't been without controversy, though. Aside from ill-founded rumours it had been cancelled due to its challenging mythological aspects, supposedly being replaced by The Punisher in the pre-Defenders billing (instead, Punisher is getting his own show, spinning out of the events of Daredevil season two), there has been debate around the character's ethnicity.

Iron Fist was created in 1974 by writer Roy Thomas and artist Gil Kane, inspired by the popularity of kung-fu cinema at the time. While badly dubbed Shaw Brothers films filled American grindhouse theatres, the comic book industry reacted with colourful variants on the genre, including the likes of Bronze Tiger at DC and Shang-Chi, another Marvel character.

Iron Fist, proving books are more powerful than violence

Netflix

In translating Iron Fist to another medium â€" especially one already dominated by Caucasian characters â€" many fans suggested Marvel should reimagine Danny Rand as an Asian American hero, even giving rise to the trending hashtag #AsianAmericanIronFist. It was a complicated issue â€" ignoring fidelity to the comics, you're left with broadly two options; either you end up with an Asian character whose 'superpower' is kung-fu, hitting the all Asians know martial arts trope, or stick with a white character who somehow becomes magically better at kung-fu and saves the day â€" the Mighty Whitey clichÃ© at best, the problematic white saviour syndrome at worst.

The character and his background was originally unknown to Buck before getting involved with the series.

"When Marvel came to me with this idea, I had never heard of Iron Fist or Danny Rand," Buck says. "I had never read the comics. What [executive producer] Jeph Loeb pitched to me specifically was this character, and that's what pulled me in, what intrigued me."

"The other aspects are things I've only learned about afterwards," Buck continues. "I can say definitively that Danny Rand is no 'white saviour'. He's trying to save himself, if anything."

Ultimately, Buck and Marvel decided to stay true to the comics, while hoping to avoid the clichÃ©s. While the version of Danny Rand that viewers will meet when the series debuts in March will still be Caucasian, he may be different to the comics in other ways.

"One of the things that appealed to me about Danny was that even though there have been several comic books written about him, there wasn't this great big backlog of information or stories about him," Buck says. "It allowed us to be a little bit more creative and take a slightly different direction with this character."

"Also, if you do go back and read the Iron Fist comics, some of them show a completely different origin story from one series to another, and Danny is very different character in different comics. That gave us the freedom to create the character we specifically wanted to."

Iron Fist season one will premiere on Netflix on March 17, 2017.
