Stan Lee got himself an ‘AGENTS OF SHIELD’ appearance.

Stan Lee.

Stanley Lee has been in every single Marvel movie to date. Is that right? *Fact-checkers I’ve imagined nod at me* Okay cool. However all of those appearances are limited pretty much to a cameo. So you’d be comfortable assuming his gig on Agents of SHIELD would be the same sort of flavor. But you’d be wrong, bro! Wrong!

Rumor: ‘AGENTS OF SHIELD’ and ‘CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER’ will CONNECT.

The Winter Soldier!

Is this surprising? I mean, we’ve already had it confirmed that Thor: The Dark World and Agents of SHIELD will connect. So like, why the fuck would Marvel scale back the Synergy Train? I say fuck slowing down! Toot, toot! All aboard the cohesive universe.

Motherfuckers!

‘AGENTS OF SHIELD’ to have ‘THOR: THE DARK WORLD’ crossover episode. ‘CAUSE SYNERGY.

Crossover Beauty.

For me, this news is 66% fanboy fluids flinging  and 33% oh God owned by Disney industry synergy nonsense. Ignore my protestations and know that the fanboy is winning.

Monday Morning Commute: Nanobots In The Digi-Air

Monday Morning Commute.

Don’t breath too deep, friends. You see, they’re done with the fluoride in the water. That’s the old tip. They’ve moved on. Now it’s the nanobots. In the air. Infesting our cortex-bits. Prepping us for the ultimate in meta-data. Meta-cognitive data. Don’t breath too deep. Don’t breath at all, if you can help it. Reject the need for oxygen. Has anyone ever really shown you that you need it? If you didn’t believe you did? Eh? Oh — me? Off my meds? What is it to you, buster? Fuck you! No — no. Please come back. Partake in this here column. Monday Morning Commute.

The watering hole where we share the various arts we’re indulging on a given week. While we can. Before they activate nanobots.

MARVEL shopping MASSIVE TV PACKAGE. Four Dramas, and a Miniseries. Aiight!

Marvel.

How much Marvel is too much Marvel? The House That Adolf Disney built is hoping that our answer to that query is “there is no such thing.” That is, if these reports are to be believed. And I believe them. Why? ‘Cause why wouldn’t Marvel be trying to capitalize on the success of Agents of Boring Rote Procedurals?

Agents of SHIELD.

Well done, folks. Apparently everyone’s pants tighten just as much as mine when it comes to the Marvel cinematic-uh-television universe. Agents of SHIELD debuted last night to crazy fucking ratings.

Monday Morning Commute: NEURAL STEW for the SYNAPSE BURN

Monday Morning Commute.

…hello there, friends. Caffeine Powered at your service. I do not say leisure, for I am a busy’d man these days. It is a Sunday Evening whilst I type this, it will be a Monday Morning on the Eastern Seaboard of the Theoretically United States when this is published. As I tippy-type, I race the literal clock. How can I share with you what I am going to be enjoying in this next week (as per the nature of Monday Morning Commute), while still finishing before Breaking Bad begins? Easy. By doing what I always do. By typing with stunning alacrity, nauseating disregard for grammatical form, and an utter disregard for proof-reading.

Let’s do this, you turkeys.
