Ultimate Spider-Man #1 Review: A Bold New Way

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

This video is my full review of Ultimate Spider-Man #1 by Jonathan Hickman and Marco Checchetto. This newly-rebooted Ultimate universe is in need of its heroes. But the Peter Parker in this universe never became Spider-Man as a teenager. Instead, he lived a normal life, marrying Mary Jane Watson and having two kids with her.

Now, in wake of the events of Ultimate Invasion, we finally see the origin of a very different, but ultimately refreshing kind of Spider-Man. Enjoy!

Deadpool #7: A Delightfully Degenerate Christmas Comic

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

This video highlights and celebrates one of my favorite Christmas themed comics, Deadpool #7. Like movies and TV shows, comics occasionally do Christmas specials. Most are all in good fun. They offer plenty of quality holiday feels. But a few do stand out.

And few characters stand out as much or as violently as Deadpool.

Deadpool #7 is just one issue from his 2018 ongoing series. But this one issue offered a simple, concise, and gloriously bloody Christmas story that’s sure to get anyone in the holiday spirit. Enjoy!

Jean Grey #3 Review: Clones, Infernos, And Revelations

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

This video is my review of Jean Grey #3, the third issue of Jean’s mini-series by Louise Simonson and Bernard Chang. In this issue, Jean continues navigating the past in hopes of fixing the present. This time, she returns to the events of Inferno and her confrontation with her clone, Madelyne Pyror. It was a fiery conflict that became a defining moment for her and Cyclops.

But even as she battles the Goblin Queen, the present is finally starting to catch up to her. And it sets the stage for a truly uncanny finale to this series.

This video is a collection of images and footage from my annual trip to the New York Comic Con. This has become one of my favorite annual traditions.

There was so much to see and I didn’t get to experience everything. But it was still a lot of fun and I can’t wait to go back next years. In the meantime, enjoy these moments from my trip!

X-Men Gold #30: How To Ruin Multiple Iconic Romances In A Single Comic

This is a video from my YouTube channel, Jack’s World.

This video revisits a somewhat controversial comic that has garnered mixed feelings among comic book fans. X-Men Gold #30 was billed as the wedding between Kitty Pryde and Piotr Rasputin, a well-known romance that had been blossoming for years leading up to this comic. And this wedding promised to be the culmination of their relationship.

However, that’s not how things played out. Yes, a couple did get married in this issue, but it wasn’t Kitty and Pitor. It was Rogue and Gambit.

But regardless of how you feel about the pairing, this comic found a way to cheapen every romance involved. And I feel it offers some frustrating, but relevant messages for future superhero marriages.
