Having recently learned that the sixth issue will experience a minor delay, we turn our attention toward some breaking news concerning Marvel's currently unfolding event series, Secret Empire, specifically the tenth issue that was confirmed as being added not long ago.
When Supernatural first premiered way back in 2005, none of us probably thought that it'd still be churning out new episodes over a decade later, but here we are. Having spawned a cult following and conventions devoted specifically to it, the fan favorite horror series chronicling the adventures of Sam and Dean Winchester is still going strong, with a thirteenth season set to commence this October.
If anything, two of the things Marvel Studios have long excelled at have been plotting out their film slate far in advance and introducing a wide array of characters to moviegoers, effectively making their pantheon of superheroes household names - even those who were previously B-listers. Granted, everyone knows the names of Captain America and the Hulk, but the average man on the street probably would've thought you were referring to a certain Black Sabbath song if you said the words "Iron Man" before 2008.
Well, it looks like you'll have to wait slightly longer before getting your hands on one of those glow in the dark Cosmic Cubes because the Secret Empire shipping schedule has been slightly amended. You see, the sixth issue to make up Marvel's currently unfolding major event has undergone some changes, which we'll get into right now.
If you're current on Arrow, then you're well aware of how season 5 - the best one the show's seen in years - quite literally went out with a bang. We say that because Prometheus/Adrian Chase shot himself in the head, thereby triggering a dead man's switch connected to a myriad of bombs scattered around Lian Yu that were rigged to blow. Thus, we'll be left in suspense until this fall as to which characters survived aside from Oliver Queen and his son, William.
As we continue to live in an era populated by remakes, it's not hard to overlook the fact the the horror genre is probably the one most often perpetuating the practice - and probably also the one we have to thank for spearheading the movement. Beyond that, there's an exclusive club of films that have been remade more than once, with Carrie being a recent example that comes to mind and, before long, The Blob will join that ilk.
Although we still have much of June ahead of us and all the awesome comic books that it'll no doubt bring, it doesn't hurt to look ahead at what next month will offer. In fact, those of you who love scooping up variant covers will want to pay attention because DC is set to serve up some real eye-catchers with Harley Quinn, Superman, Batman and several others.
Something that has made Green Lantern books so exciting in the past fifteen years or so has been the constant, significant additions to the mythology, many of which were made by Geoff Johns over the course of his run that lasted for nine years. In the time since, several other writers have run with the torch by making their own valuable contributions, one of which is Sam Humphries, the guiding hand of Green Lanterns.
If you've been following comic book related news even if only in the slightest this week, then you're likely aware of the bombshell that DC dropped in Batman #24. Had you not, then you're about to be brought up to speed. Long story short, after decades of courtship, the Dark Knight actually got down on one knee and proposed to his sometimes lover and partner in vigilantism, Catwoman.
By now, you're likely well aware that Wonder Woman has debuted to much acclaim from both critics and audiences alike. Should you have seen it for yourself, you may very well be in agreement. But, if you also happen to be a fan of the source material, you'd know that a key component in making the film work was getting the character of Diana Prince right.
