Spiderman 4….?



In case you haven’t read it on one of the ten other places that I have, Sam Raimi has told Sci-Fi Wire that he’s waiting until he reads James Vanderbilt’s script for Spider-Man 4 to decide whether or not he will direct.

“Right now James Vanderbilt is writing the script, and he’s working on it, and I’m excited to read it,” Raimi said in a group interview in Century City, Calif., on June 5. “I think it’s going to be done in a few months. I’m hoping it’s as great as our discussions were about it and hoping it feels right for me, because I love Spider-Man, and I’m hoping I’m well-enough rested to, like, really embrace it and hoping that Sony wants me at that time to direct it. So if all those things come together, I would love, love to do it. But this is a lot of unknowns about the future.”

Raimi also weighed in on recasting rumors.

Spiderman: Balck Suit Continues To Evolve!



Black Suit continues to evolve Saturday morning

Added by G-Man on Jun 4, 2008

Filed under: Spider-Man

Good to see Black Cat returning. I wonder when she’ll find out he’s just a high school kid. I wonder if Eddie will become Venom this season. Only two more episodes left.

For those watching closely over the past two episodes, the symbiote-induced black suit worn by “The Spectacular Spider-Man” has already undergone some evolutionary changes – and there are more coming in “Intervention,” an all-new episode of “The Spectacular Spider-Man” premiering this Saturday, June 7 at 10:00 a.m. ET/PT on CW4Kids.

The black suit, the result of an alien symbiote attaching itself to Peter Parker/Spider-Man, first appeared in the episode entitled “Persona.” For that episode, the suit fairly replicated Spider-Man’s red/blue suit into a black version with its classic web pattern, along with a spider emblem on his back in black with a white outline.

Comic Books Ages, Heroes And Villians



What You Should Know About Heroes And Villian In Comic Books What You Should Know About Heroes And Villian In Comic Books

Heroes And Villains In Comic Books: The antithesis holds true. If you never experienced good, you have never experienced evil. In comic books, the heroes and villains try to ante up the stakes by pitting their resources against one another for the sake of besting the other.

The heroes in comic books usually come out victorious but criminals can be just as successful. If the heroes always won, it would make comic books dull and uninteresting. The villains have to be counted on to cause ruckus and mayhem otherwise; the storyline does not coincide with a balance that must be struck. In a nutshell, you will not know evil if you have never experience goodness.

You do not have to possess superhuman powers to outsmart a villain. In today's comic books, a hero can employ a great deal of cunning to outsmart a villain. Today's comic books have smarter criminals, weaponry that is more sophisticated and more behavior that is aggressive. Does this make the hero more steadfast in his or hers reaction to the villains aggressiveness? It depends on the hero.  

The comic books of today offer a recipe for the balance of power.

A villain usually takes on a key role and if the hero does not thwart the diabolical plan, the hero may lose confidence. In that vein, the comic book looks at the human condition.

Why was there failure?
What could have prevented the villain from escaping?

With the loss of self-belief, the hero of the comic book must take necessary steps to assure success or the villain, sensing something amiss with the good guy, can utilize plans that are even more ambitious. With the balance askew for the time being, the hero must reassert his or her authority to impede the villains plan. The hero does not have to be in the superhero genre. It could be any comic book that pertains to the right or wrong in making a decision.

Heroes and villains in comic books enable the reader to make choices, and within that framework, can get a better understanding of what both the villain and the hero had to do to succeed. However, success is only a temporary distraction. It permits a continuation of the story.

So then, who is really the victor and the loser?

If both hero and the villain continually face off against one another, where and when will it end?

Quite possibly nothing short of the demise of one or the both of them. Perhaps the villain may go to jail, but eventually he or she will be released and the comic books prevail. There is clearly no winner or loser. The only winner will be found out in the next installment. Moreover, the only loser is the person who does not read the next issue.

Heroes and villains in comic books have made their mark in society. Not just in comic books but in literature throughout the ages. Essentially literature and comic books bring to life the drama associated between good and evil, and it is that premise that becomes an indispensable guide to understand human nature.
