In this video, I give my review and reaction to Ultimate Wolverine #1. The announcement for this series reinvigorated my interest in the new Ultimate Universe. And while this issue did have a few concerning moments, it still delivered in some major ways that have major implications for the future of the Ultimate Universe.

In this video, I discuss the recent news, trends, and previews of Marvel Animation for 2025 and beyond. While 2024 was a banner year with the release of X-Men 97, there have been some major upheavals behind the scene. And having seen similar upheavals in the past, I have some real concerns that I feel are worth discussing.

In this video, I reflect on how Marvel’s all-new, all-different Ultimate Universe has developed over the course of the past year. It has been generally good, but with a fair amount of not-so-good here and there. Things did slow for a while, but new series and new developments in 2025 hold great promise that’s definitely worth discussing. Enjoy!

This video is another entry in my “Jack’s Comic Gems” series. This time, I highlight a brief, but memorable mini-series that reimagines the classic House of X/Powers of X story, but in the world of X-Men 92. It’s a unique, but uncanny combination that proves to be a quality gem for all the right reasons.

This video is another thought experiment about the nature of power and wielding it effectively. Whether in ancient times or during a modern day election season, people seek power and they seek to wield it. The extent to which they’re effective tends to vary wildly.
But that raises an important question. Just how much power can one person effectively wield?
The implications of this question are far-reaching. Our society needs people in power to run effectively. But what is the limit? And how do we navigate it? I welcome any additional insights or thoughts. Enjoy!

This is video another entry in my ongoing “Jack’s Comic Gems” collection. And this particular comic is essentially a case study in just how great a modern comic book crossover event can be. “King In Black” might as an event centered on Eddie Brock and Venom. And while they are certainly part of it, this story is so much bigger than that.
It’s a dark, but beautiful display of superhero worldbuilding and epic battles featuring the god of all symbiotes, Knull. The stakes couldn’t be higher, personally and globally in King In Black. And it’s one of those unique events that shows just what Marvel can be at its best. Enjoy!

It’s been a year since Marvel launched and all-new, all-different Ultimate Universe. Jonathan Hickman got things going with Ultimate Invasion. Since then, multiple new series have come out. And the aftermath of Ultimate Invasion has been building towards a major showdown against the Maker’s Council.
In this video, I take a moment to reflect on how far this new Ultimate Universe has come in the past year, where it may go moving forward, and potential pitfalls it may encounter along the way. Enjoy!

This video is a list of theories and predictions about what to expect in season two of X-Men 97. The first season didn’t just wildly exceed my expectations. It laid a rich foundation on which to build. The season one finale offered plenty of clues. This is just me following those teases to what may lie ahead for this uncanny series. Enjoy!
