V-Yellow’s Comic Box – Year-End Round-Up

VernComicThis year treated us to a lot of comic book shows and films. With television shows and movies such as Daredevil, Agents of SHIELD, Gotham, Supergirl, The Flash, Arrow, Ant-Man, The Avengers Age of Ultron, Jessica Jones and iZombie, and they ended the year off right with Star Wars: The Force Awakens. There was even a video game that has heavily based on the DC comic universe, Batman Arkham Knight. We also had a letdown with the Fantastic Four disappointment,but mostly fans have had a good time this year.

My favorite part of this year was Arrow season four, The Flash season two and the Ant-Man film. Ant-Man is one of my favorite Marvel characters and I was happy with the way they portrayed him in the movie. Paul Rudd did an amazing job as the second character to don the Ant-Man costume. I am also very happy with the way Arrow and The Flash are going. It seems like this season is just solidifying that the shows are going to bring more and more new DC characters into the series. They may not be able to use any of the trinity, but they can reveal other lesser known characters such as Black Lighting, Animal Man, Captain Atom, Zatanna or even Plastic Man. Actress Megalyn Echikunwoke will be reprising her (previously animated) role as Vixen on Arrow later this season.

I was a little said to see the Arkham series come to an end. They have a good run with the comics that are based on the game so maybe those continue. Last but not least, the Star Wars comics and movie were amazing. Everything that led up to the movie, from the comics to the toys, just made the experience better. I have now seen the movie three times and I might see it again before it leaves theaters.

This was a good year for my entertainment and my collection. I can’t wait for next year either. We will be getting Deadpool, Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice, Captain America: Civil War, X-Men: Apocalypse, Doctor Strange and Suicide Squad. The anticipation is just too much!
