‘Episode VII’ News: Christina Chong has been cast in the galaxy far, far away

Christina Chong.

All-diversity-everything these days on the Episode VII set. News has Christina Chong (who/whom/whatever/ I’m not familiar with) joining the cast in an unspecified role. Which pretty much describes the role of every single member of the cast outside of the OT-OG folks returning.

Deborah Ann Woll (Jessica From ‘True Blood’) joins ‘DAREDEVIL’

Yes

Glory, glory, glory in the Highest! Deborah Ann Woll is getting into the motherfuckin’ Daredevil game. Playing none other than Karen Page, the Man Without Fear’s love interest. As someone who has been *cough* a bit obsessed with the red headed actress, I can confirm that this excites every part of me.

FALCON becoming CAPTAIN AMERICA in ‘ALL-NEW CAPTAIN AMERICA’

Falcon.

Ohhh man. You can hear the fanboys pulling their pubes out in hatred. Gnashing their teeth, particles of enamel and specks of drool hitting their keyboard as they type in hate. A female Thor? And now a black Captain America? Gracious.

OMEGA-LINKS: We’ve Got (Brian) Wood for Net Neutrality, and ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’

OMEGALINKS

I’ve been fucking BUSY lately. This means several things. First, I’m eating three sandwiches at 4 a.m. while weeping into my Fleshlight. Second, I’m not reading or playing nearly as much as I want to. And third, I have a fucking STACK of articles I haven’t been able to share with you fucks. So color this a Space-Ship Colonic. ‘Cause I’m flushing them links out in one post. We got everything from Brian Wood, to Guardians of the Galaxy, to Netflix slap-fighting with the FCC.

Warren Ellis + Mike Allred = …Bacardi graphic novel?

Warren Ellis.

Warren Ellis and Mike Allred are teaming up for a Bacardi graphic novel. Which is something you definitely don’t see coming. Though to be truthful, it is probably folly to plot Warren Ellis’ moves. And I suppose Mike Allred’s too.

Buy These Flippin’ Comics!!! (7.16.14) Dismantling the Boys Club

Batgirl

Wow, what a week for comics, huh ladies and germs?  A Batgirl redesign, an all-new Thor, both garnering worldwide press in the mainstream.  Can you feel it in the air?  The crackle, the hum, the whiff of ozone…change is coming.  There may come a day when news like a female Thor won’t attract that kind of attention, or the fact that an actual DC character is smiling in a comic won’t be seen as an oddity, but we’re not there yet.  However, I get the sense that comics are at a turning point, that we really are at the dawn of something new, something great, and fortunately, to prove my point there are a slew of great titles dropping this week to back up the claim.  So lace up those canary-yellow Tims, grab Mjolnir (or any hammer, should Thor’s weapon deem you unworthy), hit the jump, and let’s go smash some glass ceilings, shall we?

A complete list of this week’s comics can be found HERE.

Thunderously Awesome: Marvel’s New Thor is going to be a woman.

thor

Nary a week ago my fiancee told me she wanted to be Thor. She asked if there was a female equivalent, and I said Valkyrie. But I followed it up by saying fuck that. You be Thor, if that’s what you’re feeling. Don’t take some mitigated, half-character. Bullshit. And now my prophetic suggestion has become fucking canon. This ain’t “Lady Thor”, this ain’t “Femme 63 Thor”, it’s the bonafide God of Thunder.
