The Illuminati have always been a covert team of Marvel’s greatest heroes who often make less than heroic decisions. I’m talking about you Tony Stark and Namor!

But in the All-New, All-Different Marvel Now, the Illuminati becomes unquestionably evil.

Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston are charismatic and carry the story of revenge, redemption and brotherhood. Thor was almost too melancholy with his pining for Jane and sadness for his mother’s fate. I’m hoping in the third adventure Hemsworth gets to play the bold, brash Viking super-warrior again.  Continue reading THOR: THE DARK WORLD Review and THOR 3 Wishes
