It's coming. But while the Rockettes are objecting to their inclusion and threatening resignation rather than performing, could they get replaced with Captain America, Iron Man, Thor and Spider-Man?

The twice-monthly Green Arrow comic has been playing with a Donald Trump analogue in recent issues of the comic, Nathan Domini, businessman and land developer, turned politician With a turn of phrase, if not a direct parody of President Elect Donald Trump, is certainly familiar.   Repetition, loser leadership, staccato sentences… …and apparently cocaine and prostitutes[...]

Donald Trump's Campaign Manager Kellyanne Conway turned up at the Villains And Heroes costume party this weekend at Long Island, dressed as Supergirl.

In it he unequivocally put his prediction in a Hillary Clinton win in the presidential election in the USA, so much so that he will "wager everything on that."

Trump, those states where I am clearly not welcome. Matthew Rosenberg, writer of titles I honestly – no sarcasm – highly recommend, such as Marvel's Kingpin (current Civil War 2 mini and upcoming ongoing) and Black Mask's We Can Never Go Home, 4 Kids Walk Into a Bank, and 12 Reasons to Die, is taking a different approach[...]
