“[Editor] Steve Wacker and I talked about it and we didn’t want to change too much about the book, because it’s working, but [since] we really wanted to be a part of All-New Marvel NOW!, what about changing venues? So we set up a situation at the end of this [current] run, [where] Matt has no choice but to move away from New York City. He goes to San Francisco because he’s been there before, Continue reading DAREDEVIL Out West

Opinion: VERONICA MARS Star For IRON FIST

Iron Fist, Luke Cage, Daredevil and Jessica Jones will be stars of their own series from Marvel and Netflix. The four series will build up to a Defenders mini-series starring Marvel’s street smart heroes. No official word on casting but let the speculation begin.

 

After watching the Veronica Mars movie I kept thinking of Jason Dohring as Danny Rand.  Dohring reprised his role as bad boy Logan Echolls in the Kickstarter funded big screen movie fans. Especially in his Air Force uniform I thought this guy looks like Danny Rand and could embody the rich playboy.

For the record – I didn’t watch the Veronica Mars series but I’m a big fan of Kristen Bell and now see why the fans are so devoted. You don’t have to have watched the series to enjoy the great writing and chemistry between Bell and Dohring. I can now see Dohring suited up as Danny Rand. If the actor can master some Hollywood Kung Fu moves he could play Marvel’s cult favorite hero on the streaming screen.

 

Danny Rand gets his own series by Kaare Andrews next month. Iron Fist: The Living Weapon arrives in April.

After playing supporting roles in Fantastic Four and Avengers epics, the Inhumans are front and center of Marvel Comics but does it mean they’re on the fast track for a movie?

 

Fox is in control of the X-Men and Fantastic Four movie franchises. Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch (mutant children of Magneto) were created in the pages of X-Men but became fan-favorite Avengers.

 

In comics there’s been a sudden surge in the Inhuman population that will be explored in a new series by rising star writer Charles Soule and superstar artist Joe Madureira. Fans are speculating Inhumans could be next for a movie given a new Guardians of the Galaxy comic was launched a year before the movie.
