DC Ultimate Character Guide: New Edition (2019) – Melanie Scott
As I worked my way through DK Canada’s latest release, the DC Ultimate Character Guide: New Edition, i was put in mind of something from my childhood, something dear, and something I miss terribly (though once revealed you can make the argument that they are still available. My response will be it’s not the same,…

Superman: Miracle Monday (1981) – Elliot S. Maggin
Superman has always been a hero of mine, and when Christopher Reeve brought the character to the big screen back in 1978, I was a fan for life. At that age, I was completely enchanted by the first film, and it’s follow up in 1980, Superman II. I had the Superman: The Movie Book, I…
Justice League (2017) – Zack Snyder
Hitting blu-ray this week from Warner Brothers is the latest superhero effort from DC, and it isn’t everything we hoped for, but perhaps its the Justice League film we deserve. DC has been playing catch up with Marvel for the last decade, despite the fact that they were the go to people for superhero movies…

Now while most of the world know who Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman are, they may not be familiar with the rest of this superhero team. Of course those who are have solid opinions already about the casting of yet another…
A Hard Day’s Night (1964) – Richard Lester
Before Richard Lester ruined the Superman franchise he brought one of the best and most enduring music groups to the screen not once, but twice. His first entry the mockumentary A Hard Day’s Night is the next recommendation from the Great Movies – 100 Years of Film book following my screening of Jailhouse Rock. Re-watching this…
Injustice 2
I’m a part-time gamer, I can go for months without using my PS4 as anything but a blu-ray player or for Neflix. And then, when the mood strikes, I will play games solidly for a couple of months. That being said, I’ve never been a fan of fighting games, they seem unnecessarily brutal and mindless….
Wonder Woman: The Ultimate Guide to the Amazon Warrior (2017) – Landry Q. Walker
Ahh, Wonder Woman. I remember the first time I encountered the statuesque Amazon warrior. In fact my discovery of the comic and the television show, starring Lynda Carter, occurred at about the same time, and consequently found one of my first crushes. Combining strength, a drive for justice, beauty, and lets face it, an appealing…
