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

Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. returns after a literally earthshaking cliffhanger:

Agent Skye and Raina are Inhumans.

Skye is actually Daisy Johnson (better known to comics readers as Quake.)

In comics Daisy’s powers are due to her father’s experiments. Kyle MacLachlan plays the scientist known as Cal aka Calvin Zabo, the twisted scientist who becomes the monstrous Mister Hyde.

Producers decided to make Daisy’s powers due to her Inhuman DNA as a way to introduce the race in the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe. Continue reading INHUMANS for AGENTS OF SHIELD
