From Thor: The Dark World to Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. – Jaime Alexander reprises her role as Lady Sif on the ABC series on March tonight.

 

Sif’s return to Midgard (what the Asgardians call Earth) is tied to the debut of the villainess Lorelei, who appeared in the final moments of last week’s issue.

 

Sif’s television debut coincides with the 50th Anniversary of the hero. As pointed out by Marvel’s Brett White, Sif made her comic book debut in Journey Into Mystery #2 back in 1964.

UNCANNY AVENGERS #16 Review

Rick Remender is operating on a different level as he blows up anything, anyone and blows your mind doing it in Uncanny Avengers. Major showdowns that are the finales of most event books happen in every issue.
As we said in the comic book shop this week Remender just don’t care. I don’t mean he doesn’t care about the story he’s crafting. He doesn’t care about keeping certain characters and concepts sacred. No hero is safe. Anything can happen. Continue reading UNCANNY AVENGERS #16 Review
