THE BLACK PANTHER IS READY FOR YOU!!!!

Hey my fellow Blerds and Blerdettes it's your friendly neighborhood Black Chivalrous Nerd Denzel Lamar once again and do i have news for you. Marvel hosted an event at Disney’s El Capitan Theater in Hollywood today where they were talking about Phase 3 of the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) which starts with Avengers 2: Age of Ultron which is followed by Ant-Man starring Paul Rudd and Michael Douglas that comes out in 2015. After those two movies come out in 2015 the following movies are set to come out:
2016:
 May 6: Captain America 3

 November 4: Doctor Strange
2017:
 May 5: Guardians of the Galaxy 2

 July 28: Thor: Ragnarok

 November 3: Black Panther
2018:
 May 4: The Avengers: Infinity War, Part One

 July 6: Captain Marvel

 November 2: Inhumans
2019:
 May 3: The Avengers: Infinity War, Part Two
Now while I'm excited for all of these movies, the one movie I and other fans of this hero is ultimately excited for is the one that comes out on November 3rd, 2017. The movie I'm talking about is Black Panther.
For years fans of the Black Panther have been crying and screaming and begging Marvel to make a movie for this awesome Character. Fans have been predicting on if Marvel did a Black Panther movie, who would portray the role of the King of Wakanda and we've heard names like Denzel Washington, Jamie Foxx, Wesley Snipes (He wanted to portray Black Panther WAY before he did the Blade Movies), Idris Elba, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Peter Mensah and even Djimon Hounsou (He was Black Panther in the short lived Animated Series) was predicted to be T'Challa. Now as awesome and impressive as those names are, the man who will be representing Wakanda in Movie form is none other than Chadwick Boseman
Yes Chadwick Boseman, the man who has portrayed James Brown and Jackie Robinson will be portraying the King of Wakanda in the upcoming Black Panther movie in November of 2017 and I can't wait. Now with this news breaking, fans have now been wondering and guessing on who would be his supporting cast and we don't know but a lot of fans have been saying that if Princess Shuri is in this movie that Lupita would be perfect for that role.
Now the image above is only a prediction but I can actually see Lupita as Princess Shuri, not to mention that she would also be awesome as the Black Panther when that time comes. Now there are some people that believe that she would be the perfect Storm and I totally agree but I honestly see her as Shuri before she becomes Storm. The reason I say that is because she's already doing a Disney movie with Star Wars Episode 7 and the upcoming Jungle Book movie, so I could see her staying within the Disney family and going to be in the Black Panther Movie.
Also I think Djimon Hounsou would be great as T'Chaka, Father of T'Challa or as T'Challa's Uncle who was the Black Panther before T'Challa. The reason why I say Djimon should be casted is because he was T'Challa in the Animated Motion Series that came out a while back, even though BET failed to make it work, but I believe that it would be great to see him in this movie as a way of passing the throne and Wakanda to Chadwick Boseman.
I'm EXTREMELY excited for this project along with every other fan of this Hero. This is the movie that we've all been waiting for because this is the very first black superhero in the history of mainstream comics plus it's a Black Super Hero who is King of a country in Africa that's so advanced technology wise and intelligent wise that they had blu-ray DVD's, Smartphones and the cure for every disease in the world while everyone else in the world was wearing tye dye shirts and going to Woodstock and I think I speak for all of the fans of Black Panther and Wakanda when I say Thank You Marvel.
Now the real question is, are you ready for The Black Panther? Because, to quote Djimon Hounsou in the Black Panther Animated series, "THE BLACK PANTHER IS READY FOR YOU!!!!!!"
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to watch the Black Panther Motion Movie or listen to the theme of that show or just do those two while reading Black Panther Graphic Novels lol. Alright guys that's all the time I have for today but be sure to check out the other posts on this blog. Until next time my lovely Blerd and Blerdettes, this is the Black Chivalrous Nerd Denzel Lamar saying Love Peace and Bacon Grease Smoke Bombs out while Chanting "BLACK PANTHER, BLACK PANTHER"

More Comic Book Shows Please


Hey everyone how's it going? It's the Black Chivalrous Nerd Denzel Lamar coming to you once again with another blog post and this one is a good one.  Now as everyone knows, comic books are taking over in a big bad way and we are all excited because this is something that every nerd has been waiting for since they've been little nerds and nerdettes.  We have Gotham on Fox, The Walking Dead coming back on AMC, Arrow and the Flash on CW, Constatine on NBC, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D and Agent Carter on ABC, a rumored Live Action Teen Titan show on TNT, a  rumored Supergirl show in the works with TNT and a rumored X-Men live action television show in the works with FOX.  Not to mention that Netflix has Daredevil, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones and a Defenders show lined up just as well

Now there are some people that believe that there are too many Comic book shows being produced and that t's turning into overkill, but I for one would like to disagree with them and here's why.  Now to the non comic book fan, it is a little bit of overkill but to the Comic Book fan, we are only scratching the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the years of stories that these comic books have.  Not to mention that there are so many super heroes and heroines throughout the years that have yet to be portrayed on TV and could benefit from it just as well.  For example, I wouldn't mind seeing a Sci Fi show about Blue Beetle done on CW or NBC or a show based on DC super hero Icon, The Question, Mr. Terrific, Blue Devil, Birds of Prey, or Hawk and Dove being done.  Plus on the Marvel side I know there are people that wouldn't mind seeing a show featuring the Daughters of the Dragon featuring Colleen Wing and Misty Knight, or Spider-Woman,  or Black Panther, or Moon Knight, etc. 

My point is this, there are so many comic book stories out there that we are not being over-saturated with the few that we have right now.  If anything, it's just the beginning and it's only going up from here on so sit back relax kick back and enjoy the ride because these Super Hero shows are only going to get better with time.

Alright guys, that's all for now but until next tme this is the Black Chivalrous Nerd Denzel Lamar signing off  saying Love Peace and Bacon Grease *Smoke Bombs Out*

Enter Venom

Man Marvel Comics sure does know how to bring in the New Year right. First of all let me say Happy New Year to you and yours. Second off let me say that I couldn't think of another topic to write about other than this one. Okay so we all know that DC ended 2012 with the continued on story arc of their "Death of the Family" featuring Batman, the bat family, and the joker and Harley Quinn while Marvel was just wrapping up their "Divided we fall/United we stand" story arc. Well to keep the juices flowing in Marvel I have an idea of how the meeting went when Brian Michael Bendis and the staff behind the Ultimate All New Spider-Man decided how were they going to start the new year with a bang. And then someone had a lightbulb type idea and after the war with Hydra, it looks like Miles is going to start fighting one of the most dangerous villains in the history of Spidey.

And thus The Venom Wars Story Arc for Spidey is created and thus this nerd is very excited because I love it when Venom is wrecking havoc in manhattan and I love to see how Spidey has to really think about how he will defeat Venom this time. Plus, with this being a new Spidey, I will love to see how he handles this dangerous and deadly symbiote and how the fight will turn out. Will Miles call upon The Ultimates for help? Will he call on the other heroes or someone from S.H.I.E.L.D. for help? Or will he handle it on his own and either survive or fall to Venom? I guess we will have to sit, wait and find out what will happen

Jamie Foxx as Electro

Jamie Foxx recently announced that he will play the character Electro in the Columbia Pictures’ upcoming film ‘The Amazing Spider-Man 2.’

Foxx told Entertainment Tonight, while talking about The Amazing Spider-Man 2 that, “Electro is a great character. I met with the director, Mark Webb, I met with Andrew Garfield, and we talked. … I think Electro will be an exciting character to play because he’s a … genius electrician-type person, and he gets the short end of the stick from the whole world, and the next thing you know he turns it on.”

I'm actually down with this and can't wait to see what they do with this character because besides Venom, Electrode is my all time favorite villain in Spider-Man.

DC and Marvel's story arc war for 2012

So this year in the world of Comics we've had blockbuster story arcs that are amazing, shocking and jaw dropping. DC had the Night Of Owls story Arc that talks about a secret organization that is as old as Gotham try to take out Batman, Robin, Batgirl, Nightwing, Batwing, Red Hood, Red Robin and in one issue of All-Star Western you will see Jonah Hex go against a Talon - deadly assassins for the Court of Owls- back in the era of cowboys and Indians to see who truly rules the nights of Gotham. I'm still reading this story arc but from what I'm reading this story arc is truly attention grabbing for the reader.

Marvel then answers with the summer blockbuster known as Avengers Vs. X-Men which I believe was absolutely amazing. No punches were held back in this event as old alliances were broken, marriages were destroyed, cities were annihilated, and long time friends and loved ones were lost in this all out war. This story arc which revolved around the ever powerful Phoenix returning and whether it means the rebirth of the mutant race or the destruction of the planet but overall it's a story you do not want to miss out on.

Following that blockbuster Marvel continues to swing with a story arc within their ultimate universe known as Divided we Fall/United we stand story arc that involved Ultimate Spider-Man, Ultimate X-Men and the Ultimates that has now changed the ultimate universe but is this change for the worse or for the good? You will just have to continue to read the ultimate universe comics to see

Now DC answers back with another crossover story arc called "Death of the Family" which involves Batman, Batgirl, Catwoman, Harley, Nightwing, Red Hood, Red Robin, the current Robin, Alfred and wait for it..... The Joker. Yes, the Clown Prince of crime in Gotham is back after vanishing for a year and having his face carved off, check out the pic below from Detective Comics #1 to see what I mean, to expose batman and the entire bat family and promises that the people around Batman and probably Batman will be dying in this Story Arc. From what has happened so far in the Story Arc, Joker returns, gets his face back, wrecks havoc and is reliving crime scenes that he has already tried once but is adding more twists and swerves this time around. Oh and by the way? Joker finally has the identities of Batman and everyone else

Reliving scenarios like Joker and Batmans first encounter when Joker was the original Red Hood or the ever so memorable scenario from the book "The Killing Joke" when he cripples batgirl but instead has his goons kidnap Batgirl's Mother which adds a twist to Batgirl and Joker's encounter in which I do not want to give anything away. As I'm reading this story arc I'm intrigued to see what other Classic Scenarios Joker brings back to life with more twists added this time and what happens next and what has happened to Alfred.

In this never ending war between the two power comic book empires I believe that DC got the upper hand this year when it comes to story arcs in comic books. Even though Avengers Vs. X-Men was epic and Marvel s going through a Re-Launch themselves with Marvel NOW! DC blew them out of the water and is going to close out the year with their hands raised and continue this momentum going into next year, but this is my opinion. What do you guys think? Who do you think won this years War Of The Mega Comic Empires and what do you expect next year between Marvel and DC? Comment on either G+ or on this post and give me your views and opinions.... Okay guys that's all for now. PEACE

Marvel gets it but DC doesn't

Okay so there has been something on my mind for a while when it comes to digital comics and the ideas that some publishers use or don't use. One of the ideas I'm talking about is the idea of bundling issues into one graphic novel or as they are called in Comixology, Collected Editions. Marvel comics as well as IDW use this idea for their comic books in comixology and other digital comic apps but other heavyweight comic publishers like DC refuse to do the same thing and I believe it's not right.

I believe it's not right because as a comic book nerd I like it when the issues of a story are in one section or collected edition. An example of this would be the X-Men Messiah storyline when the mutants were on the verge on extinction until Hope Summers was born. That story has parts ALL OVER the X-Men universe that instead of keeping the issues separate, they combined them together to make a graphic novel and I like that because it saves time trying to switch from one comic book to the next, and it also saves money just as well.

Allow me to elaborate on this real quick for a moment. The price for book one of Uncanny X-Force (which has issues 1-4) is $6.99 plus tax on comixology, but the four issues that are in that collected book are $1.99 each, Which means that if you were to buy the single issues it would cost you $10.73 plus tax. With that in mind and the economy slowly getting back on its feet, a wise choice is to purchase the collected book instead of the individual issue and marvel understands that sometimes saving money is always good. Another example of this is Marvel Mondays on comixology which is a certain comic book series or event are selling their issues for 99 Cents each which is another great deal for the consumer.

Now DC? They don't understand that yet because they don't sell collected editions which means that when it comes to storylines and story arcs, you will be buying individual issues and you will be switching from one comic book series to another to get to the other part of the story arc. One example is Green Lantern's "War Of The Green Lanterns" storyline because the issues are scattered all over the place it's absolutely crazy why DC doesn't decide to put it all together as one collected edition and sell it for a cheaper price than to have their customers at more to get all of the individual issues.

There are multiple examples of DC comics that would benefit from a collected edition book and one of them is the Critically Acclaimed Storyline "Knightfall" which introduced Bane and the classic and memorable moment in batman history which is Bane Literally Breaking Batman in half. There are so many issues and its not just in the Batman series but also has some issues in the Detective Comics comic series. That is one book that I would love to pick up and read but only if there was a digital version of the graphic novel.

I say all this because as someone who has spent time and money to read these stories, I think it would be a great idea if every comic book publisher started making collected editions of their books. It would save time, money, and it would definitely make the consumers very happy and satisfied. Not just because they get to read these stories but also because they would be saving money in the process just as well.

So I propose that us as fans of these comics should come together and raise our collected voices and let these publishers know that they all need to start making digital collected editions of their comic books.

Avengers Vs. X-Men Review

Okay so here is the review of Marvels summer Blockbuster comic book series Avengers Vs. X-Men. The story behind this series is that The Avengers see that the Phoenix is coming back and they want to prevent that from happening where Cyclops and the remaining 200 mutants (Thanks to Scarlet Witch in House of M) are relying on Hope Summers who is being called the Mutant Messiah and will restore the Mutant Race and use the power of the Phoenix to do so. The Story progresses on and the war between the two factions commence when Cyclops and Captain America have a disagreement about who will help Hope.

Among that there are ties that are brought together, ties and bonds are severed, and others are still in the air while the fighting between the two factions are going on. While the fighting going on the Phoenix rejects hope and goes sync with Cyclops, Emma Frost, Colossus, Namor and Magik and they become the Phoenix Five and that is when havoc is really brought into the world. There are moments where your jaw will hit the floor, there are moments where you will want to flip a table, and moments where you will be like "WTFF" but it will keep you wanting to continue reading.

I suggest that if you don't wanna get the single issues of this then to wait for the graphic novel to buy and read. This series in my opinion almost lost me at one moment but I pushed on through and I'm so glad I did because I wasn't expecting the ending to end like that and the spin off comics "Uncanny Avengers" and "AvX Consequences" are looking to be good spin off comic books so read this book.

Also to get a full understanding of Avengers vs. X-Men I highly suggest you pick up the books that lead to Avengers Vs. X-Men which are House Of M, X-Men: Messiah Complex, X-Force/Cable: Messiah War and X-Men: Second Coming. Read those books in that order THEN read AvX and you will understand the full scope and scale of AvX.

Wolverine: Old Man Logan Review

Hey guys here's my review for Wolverine: Old Man Logan which was done by Mark Millar (Civil War, The Ultimates 1 and 2) and Steve McNiven. When I first heard about Old Man Logan I was skeptical because the comic nerd in me didn't wanna believe that Wolverine could be old because of his healing factor ability he couldn't age. But for the uninitiated (Shout out to the big homie 8-Bit Animal) Old Man Logan is a story 50 years in the future where Wolverine hasn't popped his claws in forever since the villains joined together and was being led by Red Skull and they attacked the heroes and took over the country and an incident that turned the most lethal hero in marvel comics history into a pacifist.


What happened was that Mysterio created an illusion that all of the villains have invaded the Xavier School and Wolverine went and killed everyone, or so he thought. When in reality he killed every Member of the X-Men including Charles Himself so Logan decides to go into hiding and decides to never pop his claws anymore.

Fast forward 50 years later and Logan is married with kids and owns a farm in California which is owned by the Hulk Gang ( yes Bruce banner is a baddy in this book) and Logan owes them money so they say he has two weeks to pay double or else. Hawkeye which is now blind but can still drive around and is still one hell of a dead eye comes to Logan for help and offers to pay Logan enough money for him to pay the hulk gang and still have some left over which leads to a cross country adventure all the way to the east coast which is owned by President Red Skull (Yes you heard me correctly, PRESIDENT RED SKULL).

I don't want to get into it anymore because I don't want to spoil anything for anyone that hasn't read it but all I'm going to say is that this book is another blockbuster hit from the brilliant mind of mark Millar and this book definitely takes you on a roller coaster ride of emotions plus there are moments where you will go OH SHIT. If you are looking for a good read then I highly recommend this book for you and you can get it for $15 on comixology if you get comics digitally or check your local comic book store just as well.

Alright my good people that's all the time I have for today so don't forget to like, comment, share and tell ya people's about this website. Stay tuned because more things are bound to come in the near future and you don't wanna miss it.

This shit don't make no sense

I know I'm late on this and I apologize but fuck it I'm posting it anyway. So earlier this week Marvel CEO Ike Perlmutter showed his true racial and sexist colors by manipulating the system so that Disney Consumer Products chairman Andy Mooney and three other executives (all African-American women) lost their jobs. Perlfucker has gone on to make budget cuts for all Marvel projects like in the Iron Man movies. In the first movie they had Terrence Howard play War Machine and in the Sequel they had Don Cheadle play War Machine, but for less money. Perlfucker has gone on to tell Monney at the time that the change cuts cost AND Perlfucker also has gone on to say that they switched actors because no one would notice the switch because "All Black People Look The Same". Um I'm sorry but I didn't know that Terrence Howard and Don Cheadle looked the same, I don't think any would know that because THEY FUCKIN DON'T LOOK THE SAME. You have to be a member of the GOP and the Tea Party to believe that Light Skinned Terrence Howard and Dark Skinned Don Cheadle look alike. Knowing that an Asshole like Perlfucker is running things at Marvel it's no wonder that a movie for Black Panther, Luke Cage or Brother Voodoo isn't in the works and probably won't be if this piece of shit continues to be running shit.


SMH Was this week National Let's Do and Say Racial Dumb Shit Week or something because I didn't get that memo. First I hear about Sherry Jenix and now I hear about this shit? It's times like this where I'm embarrassed to call myself a comic nerd and a video game nerd because of bullshit like this that shows the ugly side of things that I love.

This would be the part where I do my shout outs but because of the recent events imma just sign off right now. Till next time people

SuperWonder

So apparently In the comic book world, breaking up long courtships and relationships that comic book fans know and love is what's hot in the streets. First was Black Panther and Storm (DAMN YOU MARVEL, DAMN YOU TO HELL!!!!!!!!) and now the second couple to come to an end is the ever so long courtship between Clark Kent (Superman) and Lois Lane. But I did not care about this but apparently it looks like Superman is upgrading in his choice of women *Insert Beyonce's Upgrade You* because Entertainment Weekly has revealed the latest cover for the 12th issue of DC's New 52 Justice League and it looks like There is a new couple in Superman and............. *Drum roll* WONDER WOMAN!!!!!!! *insert 70's theme for wonder woman*

Now I know that there have been some SuperWonder Encounters in the past but it looks like this is going to be permanent and apparently this relationship is going to have an affect on the other heroes in the DCU but if I was a hero in the DCU why would I care about this?  Also as much as a strong Woman Firgure that Wonder Woman is, to go from dating Steve Trevor to now gettin smashed by Superman is kinda suspect plus Superman gettin in between those two is crazy but I guess when you're the man of steel you can do whatever the fuck you want.  But also this relationship would be cool because these two can actually be themselves instead of hiding their true identities so I'm also excited about it.

Justice League #12 is going to be on Sale next week so be on the look out for that

Really Marvel? Really Stan Lee? Really Jason Aaron

Okay so if you are reading the Avengers VS. X-Men Comic Book And you read the current issue "Round 9" then you know where this anger is coming from and this is not a post but another rant and it goes as such. WHAT THE FUCK? REALLY? YOU'RE GOING TO BREAK UP THE GREATEST HERO COUPLE OF ALL TIME DURING THIS CRAZY BATTLE BETWEEN TWO OF MARVEL'S GREATEST FACTIONS? THIS IS SOME BULLSHIT I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT STAN LEE GAVE JASON AARON THE OKAY TO BREAK UP T'CHALLA AND STORM!!! I'M SO GLAD THIS SERIES HAS THREE MORE ISSUES LEFT CAUSE THIS ONE PANEL JUST RUINED THE REST OF THE BOOK FOR ME.......... I'M NOT AMUSED NOR AM I HAPPY ABOUT THIS. Apparently there is speculation that this move was to set up for the Black Panther Movie (That is if Marvel aren't too much of scared Lil bitches to man up and make one with an accredited AFRICAN ACTOR to portray T'Challa) but my thing is this. Why would you break them up to set up for a movie it's so stupid and wrong? I'm sorry I know I said this was gone be a rant but my head hurts after seeing this so imma lay down now.

I call Bullshit on Marvel

So during Comic Con, Marvel announced the new movies that are either filming now, about to start filming, or in post production. The movies are Iron Man 3, Captain America 2 (hopefully featuring Falcon), Thor 2, Ant Man, and Guardians of the Galaxy. When the Co-President of Marvel Was asked by MTV about the potential of a black panther movie this is what he said:

"He has a lot of the same characteristics of a Captain America: great character, good values... But it's a little more difficult, maybe, creating [a world like Wakanda]. It's always easier basing it here. For instance, 'Iron Man 3' is rooted right here in Los Angeles and New York. When you bring in other worlds, you're always faced with those difficulties."

So Making Asgard with the Rainbow Bridge for Thor is easy, making a movie about guardians in space that feature a fuckin raccoon (where most people prolly know him from a video game) is easy. But when it comes to doing a movie for The First Black Mainstream Superhero, and King of an African Country that is far more Advanced than America is hard?

So if Wakanda Was what Most Americans believe is which is savage would it be better for Marvel to do the film? Or is it because Marvel and the rest of white Hollywood is scared to do it because there are NO MAJOR WHITE LEADS IN BLACK PANTHER. Is it because the Black Panther Movie would mostly be Black People that they don't know how to pitch it? As someone who has been dying for an Actual Black Panther movie I feel disrespected from Marvel. You assholes decided to do a movie featuring a fucking raccoon over T'Challa? You decided to do a movie of a super hero that beats his woman over T'Challa? FUCK YOU MARVEL
