Or, maybe I could have titled this post… “That’s gotta hurt!”
Welcome to Day 4 of “12 days of Hulk.” It’s a bad day for Xemnu the Living Titan (Marvel’s “Original Hulk”), who just got clobbered.
Ed McGuinness continues to remain one of my favorite contemporary artists. Plus, as they say, he’s a swell guy too.
When conventions come back in full force, make sure you visit with him at any show he happens to attend. It will definitely be a pleasant and fun experience.
Tell him the blog sent you.
The “original Hulk” appeared in 1960, about two years prior to our ever-lovin’ Hulk.
Two years ago this week, many of us settled into a comfy (hopefully) movie theater seat to catch Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. I think I’m speaking for the majority of filmgoers when I say: “Brain Blown.”
The Spider-Verse concept was so successful in this ground breaking animated film, that apparently some of its alternate Spidey universes appear to be creeping into the next live action Spider-Man film, currently due in theaters in a year from now.
Rumors are swirling in recent weeks that many actors and characters from the two previous Spider-Man film universes will reappear in this film, with supposedly Jamie Foxx (Electro) and Alfred Molina (Doctor Octopus) confirmed.
A multiverse Sinister Six? I say, bring it on! (I’ve confessed my love of multiverse storylines previously.)
Meanwhile, in the comics, you don’t have to wait for Disney and Sony and the talent and the screenwriter and the director to have a meeting of the minds.
You can simply read any number of Spider-Verse related comic book titles, including this one featuring art by the vastly underrated David Williams.
Here you get six Spider-People for the price of one. Seems like a good deal to me.
The film poster, the original art for Bill Sienkiewicz’s promo poster, and the cover to IDW’s Marvel Action :Spider-Man featuring the first comic book team-up of Peter Parker, Miles Morales and Spider-Gwen.
All three actors in one Spider-Man film? You never know…
