Warning: Spoilers for The Infinity Watch #1There are so many powerful and world-destroying weapons in Wonder Universe, but the Infinity Stones are perhaps the most dangerous. These powerful items can warp reality and resurrect the dead, as well as a host of other effects. One of its only weaknesses was that the stones couldn't be used outside of their home universe, but that's a weakness that Marvel just eliminated. In THE Infinity Clock #1 by Derek Landy and Ruairí Coleman, Marvel reveals the new status quo for the Infinity Stones. In this story, the newly formed Infinity Watch is attacked…
Notice! Spoilers for DC vs. Vampires: World War V #5!While Harley Quinn is marketed as having no power, I know this is not true. There's no denying how popular Harley Quinn has become. Many call her Marvel's Deadpool, which is a more accurate description than many think, especially considering Deadpool's healing factor. As much as DC wants to deny it, Harley Quinn has an incredible superpower that every writer seems to use: plot armor. The whole world of D.C. vs. Vampires fell into disarray when the vampire threat took over the world. Tons of heroes were slaughtered and even more…
Coming from Image Comics, Undead was one of the most successful zombie comics ever made and helped revitalize the genre, even spawning several successful TV shows. But that was after Robert Kirkman and Tony Moore altered their pitch after Image rejected their original idea, and if they had stuck to their original pitch, The walking dead legacy would be very different. Originally, writer Kirkman intended for the series to focus on a world-destroying zombie apocalypse, but that apocalypse would have occurred over decades and the world in question would have been very different. Instead of a modern Earth, the story…
A cosplayer just revealed a Doctor Doom this is literally so perfect that there is no way to improve it. Comic book characters are some of the most popular targets for cosplay, but they can also be some of the most difficult. Superhero costumes are often impractical and only made to look cool on the page, not necessarily in real life. Movies have struggled with portraying costumes for decades, but this cosplayer definitely pulls it off. Doctor Doom may very well be one of the most difficult comic book characters to cosplay. While the green cape and cowl are probably…
The youngest Superman film will be willing to share the spotlight with Man of Steel, as Shapeshifter makes his film debut, proving that he is one of the DC Comics' most underrated characters. Appearing in the first Superman teaser trailer and a new solo series in the works, 2025 is about to be the year of Metamorpho. Metamorpho used to be decently popular as a character, but he slowly fell out of favor. He's appeared in several comics, even as a headliner – like the new Shapeshifter: The Elemental Man by Al Ewing and Steve Lieber, which includes a commemorative…
Superman has punched Imperiex, Mongul, and even Darkseid, and while these characters are heavy hitters, one villain stands above them all: Judgment Day. While there's no denying that Darkseid is powerful, even he was defeated by the terrifying Doomsday, proving that Doomsday's strength practically makes him a god. Doomsday was designed to be the perfect living organism. Every time Doomsday is killed, he simply comes back stronger than ever, typically immune to whatever killed him before. Because of this, Doomsday has continued to evolve over the years, becoming stronger and stronger, and at some point, his powers will push him…
One of the few villains to never appear in a Superman film is Ultraman. With a new Superman film being released next year, one of the main antagonists is rumored to be Ultraman, marking his first live-action appearance. If this rumor is true, it could give Superman the biggest live-action fight of his film career. Due to the changing nature and history of comics, many different versions of Ultraman have emerged over the years. The first premiered in 1964 Justice League of America #29 by Gardner Fox and Mike Sekowsky. This story explored the history of the first version of…
Few superheroes have as complicated a relationship with their identity as Moon Knight. Moon Knight doesn't just have a secret identity; he has three. Between Marc Spector, Jake Lockley, and Steven Grant, most fans could be forgiven for thinking these are all the identities Moon Knight used, but he had a short-lived fourth alter ego. The surprising fourth identity was revealed in Moon Knight #22 by Jed McKay and Alessandro Cappuccio. In this run, Steven Grant's wealth, which is how Moon Knight is able to operate, has been completely drained by the new villain known as Zodiac. With all of…
A fan just gave the Punisher skull a redesign that is good enough to be used by Marvel. One of the most important parts of being a superhero is having a recognizable symbol. Everyone recognizes the symbols of Batman, Superman, Spider-Man and dozens of other characters. Heroes need to have recognizable icons, both for their fans and their villains, and the Punisher is no different. Fans were treated to a great Punisher cosplay on Reddit by user Putrid_Monitor7092. This cosplay definitely seems to be inspired by Frank Castle's previous appearances, and the skull is a great take on the original…
