Jaime Alexander returns as Lady Sif on Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. this week.

The warrior from Thor and Thor: The Dark World came to Earth last season after a rogue Asgardian.

Sif will face a secret opponent so powerful it will cause some serious damage and make her lose her memory.

“Sif has no idea who Thor is or that she serves a king, and we’re going to have fun with that,” executive producer Jeffrey Bell told TV Insider. Continue reading LADY SIF Returns to AGENTS OF SHIELD

Jada Pinkett Smith revealed she’s only signed on to Gotham for one year and will not be returning.

Does this have to mean the end of Fish Mooney?

The mobster could join the elite sorority of comic book characters that didn’t originate in comics. We asked if Fish could be the next Harley Quinn? Upon more comics research there’s even more reason to have this ruthless femme fatale join the Batman family of comics. One character on Gotham made the leap from animated series to comics and now television.

Here are four female characters who didn’t make their debut in comics: Continue reading FATE of FISH MOONEY & COMIC BOOK CHARACTERS From TV

The return of Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. left us with a lot of burning questions after the action and drama packed Aftershocks episode.

Who is the eyeless mystery man who can teleport?

In the mid-season finale we saw this man with no eyes holding an obelisk similar to the one that transformed Skye and Raina into Inhumans so he must be one too?

In this week’s episode it was confirmed via flashback that he is named Gordon was taken in by Skye’s mother shortly after his transformation. It was a tender, tragic moment as the changed man kept teleporting uncontrollably and couldn’t understand why he could not see anything. Continue reading AGENTS OF SHIELD’S EYELESS MYSTERY MAN

Before Captain America vs. Iron Man in Civil War, before Batman vs. Superman in the Dawn of Justice….there is Wolverine vs. Thor…sort of.

Hugh Jackman (promoting Chappie) was the guest on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon playing a game of musical beers with cast members from Saturday Night Live including this week’s guest host Chris Hemsworth.

It’s musical chairs with music by Questlove and beers but why are Jackman and Hemsworth in wigs?

I couldn’t help but be reminded of Logan and the Odinson’s bar brawl back in Wolverine #5 here.
Watch, enjoy and happy weekend! Continue reading HUGH JACKMAN vs CHRIS HEMSWORTH in BEER BATTLE
