We're picking up on late a little late but not too late. Blood Roots is a Heavy Metal history program hosted by Ian Christie (Author of Sound Of The Beast) Running since 2004, each week the show focuses on a different subgenre, band, movement, country or theme in metal, punk or heavy rock. This week they focus on the connection[...]

In a less frenetic mood, Night at the Museum 3 will soon be reanimating the exhibits at the British Museum. What explains the sudden clatter of clapperboards in Old London Town? The weather? the Tax breaks? the ineluctable lure of our windswept mayor? I think the best explanation comes from Thor: The Dark World The movie's giddy,[...]

It's not often that a Swipe File makes a comic book in and of itself. But if you combine this T-shirt design from Threadless... With this Strange Tales

Because this is about the Thor comic book not making scientific sense. Yes, I know. But bear with me on this In today's Mighty Thor, available at all good comic shops and possibly a few bad ones as well, he is being painted as an environmental champion and protector of the planet's ecosystem So we have the[...]

And as Thor continues to court a scientist (who somehow isn't fazed by all the bad science around, more on that later) in today's Thor, God Of Thunder, he also seems to threaten a Roxxon fellow (Marvel's Exxon equivalent) with the thin end of Mjölnir Well that'll impress any woman But at least we can[...]

  A simple google search reveals stacks. And much of it about Loki and Thor. But it seems in the Marvel Universe, in the new Loki: Agent Of Asgard, not only do we open with a shower scene, but we get this revelation. Yeah, anyone thinking that we'd be losing Kieron Gillen's Loki, just because Al Ewing is writing[...]

The ladies of Marvel are headed for ABC.

According to Mark Anderson and seen elsewhere, the calendar is on a 28 year cycle where the exact same start day appears at least 3 time. Repeating in 6

Thor, Iron Man, Nick Fury and Captain America are currently on display at the famous wax museum but time is counting down before one of the members moves on. The figures went on display in November with an opening attended by Stan Lee himself and will stay intact until January 14th when Captain America will be[...]

Das Pastoras has been showing some of his working out, his sketches for the artwork on the upcoming Thor, God Of Thunder #18, out at the end of next month. Three pages are fine, one we had to do a little amending to, to get past any NSFW issues Well, it is the gods, up to[...]

Appropriate on this day we say farewell to Smith. Iron Man, Thor, and Batman PEZ Now the real problem is that I don't want to open these because the packaging is so bright and appealing, but then again, there are sweets inside The conundrum. A POP Vinyl of Batman '66 Joker based on Cesar Romero[...]

Jamie Alexander, the actress who portrayed Lady Sif in Thor: The Dark World spent the afternoon visiting patients at the Children's Hospital of Los Angeles Alexander appeared in costume and spent time with dozens of kids, handing out signed DVDs and posters as[...]

For those still waiting for that Deadpool movie, which has seemed dead to me for a long time but is apparently still in the works, you may have already gotten a glimpse of what it could look like without even realizing it. The opening prologue of Thor: The Dark World was actually put together by Tim[...]

    Oklahoma City's Marvel tie-in Thunder T-shirt featuring a certain Thor But is that pose a little familiar? Possibly from a different God of Thunder? Thunder thunder thunder thunder thunderstrike! In Swipe File we present two or more images that resemble each other to some degree They may be homages, parodies, ironic appropriations, coincidences or works of the[...]

If you went and saw Thor: The Dark World over the weekend or turned in last night to Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D then you might have noticed that the Marvel Studios logo has gone through a bit of an upgrade. The original and familiar flip-logo made it's debut before the first Spider-Man film, now after over[...]

Charmin posted this cartoon the other day and then deleted it shortly afterwards. I'm sure some how lawyers got involved. Charmin, nor it's parent company

What does Jaimie Alexander know about Batman/Superman? Thor: The Dark World is about to hit theaters* which means cast members are all over the place talking up the movie Jaimie Alexander was doing just now at Stan Lee's ComiKaze convention in LA, and she has let something potentially very interesting slip out. Most-Read TV/Film Stories Saturday: Jaimie[...]

And I wasn't disappointed by Thor: The Dark World There's a wealth of Asgardian action, some affecting character beats, and a whole boatload of well-handled humour. The look of the film is luscious The effects are quite brilliant There are one or sequences that set the bar pretty high for anyone who might be, for example,[...]

Okay, so thanks to Skype, I suddenly found myself in yesterday's press pit for the premier of Thor: The Dark World Unlike those around me I hadn't seen the film Unlike those around me, I didn't have professional filming or recording gear But I did have my iPad… So here are a few snatched moments with[...]

Here goes. Aside from the actors playing Thor, Loki and Erik Selvig, there are two other actors from The Avengers who pop up in Thor The Dark World. One is Stan Lee, obviously He got a cheer from the crowd. And there is one other… even though they don't actually… appear as one of the Avengers[...]

Over at change.org a petition was started calling for Marvel Studios to produce a movie based on the character of Loki played by Tom Hiddleston. Over

The storm is here." So, basically, that's Thor. Well, there is a new movie on the way… Spanish artist Das Pastoras did some work for Marvel around three of four years ago, a little Wolverine, a little Punisher, a little Deadpool and Ghost Rider Not a lot. Then he returned to Europe to complete his Jodorowsky-written Metabarons prequel[...]
