     Comic Doodles has been rebooted!

     Comic Doodles 2.0 is the ultimate hangout for lovers of comic books, Easter eggs, and all things sci-fi. Check back here often for new posts and videos; I write my reviews and opinions on movies and comics, break down Easter Eggs in trailers, and come up with fan theories so crazy, they have to be true! I also like to shine the spotlight on the minor characters and the forgotten cameos to show why they matter, like I did with "Lightning Kid" in Logan or the forgotten children of the Avengers.
     If you have any requests for what I should write about, leave me a comment!
     So, why are you still reading this? Check out my YouTube channel and the rest of this blog! Laters!

Why Green Hornet is the Most Underrated Superhero Movie Ever Made

Photo courtesy Sony Pictures      2011 was an interesting year for comic book movies. In the year before Marvel's The Avengers would completely revolutionize superhero filmmaking, we had movies like  X-Men: First Class, Thor, Green Lantern, and  Captain America: The First Avenger . That year, we also saw a superhero film of a different kind, Michel Gondry's adaptation of  The Green Hornet series, which starred Seth Rogen and Jay Chou. Despite being panned by critics (it boasts a mighty 43% on Rotten Tomatoes!), this film is definitely worth a second watch, for beneath the action and the juvenile humor lies a clever and unique deconstruction of superheroes, comic book movies, and most importantly, sidekicks.      Seth Rogen plays Britt Reid, whose life is sent tumbling into a directionless abyss when his father dies of a bee sting. Like many superheroes, he is driven to vigilantism by his father's death -- kind of. Once his father is...

Why "Lightning Kid" is the Best Character in Logan

Photo courtesy 20th Century Fox SPOILERS AHEAD FOR LOGAN ! It's been a year already, go watch it!      Every time I watch Logan , there's one character in particular that really stands out, and that's Bobby, the New Mutant with electricity powers and the very same kid clutching a Wolverine action figure at Logan's funeral. And apparently I'm not the only one to think this. Grace Randolph from the YouTube channel Beyond the Trailer said that while she found most of the New Mutants in the film to be "not likable," she enjoyed watching Bobby. But I think the reason I find his character so interesting is not just his likability, but the fact that he might be one of the most important characters in the film.      There's a deleted scene in which Logan awakes to find Bobby standing over his bed, playing out a fight with his action figures. In one hand, he has Wolverine, clad in his classic canary suit; in the other, he has Sabretooth, whose fangs and ...

Theory: Wolverine Is Already in the MCU

     Disney has proved itself a juggernaut once again by purchasing 20th Century Fox, meaning we might one day see the X-Men cross paths with the Avengers. But interestingly, the MCU might have already given us clues suggesting one mutant was already skulking around somewhere off-camera: Wolverine.      Believe it or not, adamantium -- the metal comprising Wolverine's unbreakable claws -- has been mentioned in the Marvel Cinematic Universe before. This might be shocking, considering the Marvel Cinematic Universe is owned by Disney and the X-Men are owned by 20th Century Fox (until this deal receives the necessary approval), but a small detail snuck its way into the MCU undetected: Photo Courtesy Reddit      These are the blueprints for Captain America's shield, close-ups of which appear in the bonus features of Iron Man 2 . If you look closely, you can see a note from Stark that reads, "adamantium alloy -- [too] much bounce." Presuma...
