Wonder Man (2026)

Is Marvel even still relevant anymore? They keep throwing out random shows like they are. Its not really clear where, if anywhere, Wonder Man fits in the "big picture", he may even just be a random one off since this show is branded Marvel Spotlight. Werewolf By Night was also a Marvel Spotlight show. It doesn't seem like its intended to be a part of anything more either.

Review – Movie – Spider-Man: Into the Spider-verse

Sony is kind of in a weird place with it's Spider-Man license.  They are working on their third reboot of the series, which is not tied to the MCU which they don't really own any stake in.  So they have a pretty decent and successful Spider-Man series going now, but it's technically part of a universe they can't fully touch.  Take the recent Venom movie, for example.  Venom is pretty tied to Spider-Man, but this new movie itn't part of the MCU, so that gets a little tricky. Maybe they don't really care a lot about continuity. Maybe they also…
