By G. P. Avants Wow! What just happened? I am sitting back looking at DC’s Wonder Woman and realized the superhero game has changed. In many ways the journey of Diana of the Amazons dropped into the middle of World War 1 and therefore shook up our view of history. How do I summarize this in…

Kith and Kin-Sometimes One In The Same: Guardians, Vol. 2
By: John D. Pepe “Friends are the family we choose for ourselves.” – Novelist Edna Buchanan This quote is strikingly true when it comes to my life. I have many friends that I have known for decades, some almost four. These are the childhood chums that I grew up with. They have become like family…
Perfect Idiots
By Gary Avants Peter Quill believes he is staring at what he assumes is perfection. The Sovereign leader Ayesha, though, in all her glory can easily slip in a smile meant to reduce a lower species back down to size. She makes the Guardians of the Galaxy feels like they are five tiny specs of…
Not a Perfect Dad, but One Perfect for you
Father’s Don’t Need to Be Perfect By John Pepe As Father’s Day approaches it makes me ponder fatherhood. Am I the perfect dad? Am I even a good dad? At times my son looks at me as if I’m infallible (other times, not so much), and it harkens me back to when I was his…

Why is Mr. Green so Blue?
By G. P. Avants Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 didn’t skip a beat right from the start. It laid down a sound track that made you want to get up and dance. (That is if course if you are the type who dances.) As Star Lord and crew prepares to defend a…
Iron Fist “Duality of Life”
By: John D. Pepe The first time I watched the Iron Fist series I was left with a feeling of disappointment. It just seemed to miss that “something” that the other Netflix Marvel Series had. I reluctantly decided to give it a second viewing, but watched with…

By: John D. Pepe I had a near fisticuffs about six weeks ago and it made me think of the series Daredevil and our nation’s willingness to embrace violence.

The Lego Batman Movie: “I Don’t Do Ships…”
By: John D. Pepe Life is about connectedness. It’s about the relationships we develop, with friends, family, co-workers, etc. I mean even the most hardened of criminals need basic human contact, otherwise why risk time in “the yard” where you can be attacked over time in “the hole” where one is safe. The reason…
