Thor: Love and Thunder Movie Trailer was released Monday, May 23 2022

Trailer Review/Thor: Love and Thunder

May 24, 2022

Behold! We got a trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder. Time to take a dab and watch this! I’m so excited to see this one and am anxious for its release, also I love Christian Bale. I’m going to be finishing up my Slurricane (indica) from my local dispensary Shoppe Callies!

View trailer and dope poster for Thor: Love and Thunder below.


TRAILER REACTION!

The Space Viking Thor Odinson(Chris Hemsworth)!! Oh wow, I am PUMPED for this one. “From dad bod to god bod,” haha absolutely love that, that needs to be on a shirt.

Well since I am new to comics, I’m unsure if we already know how Jane Foster(Natalie Portman) got her powers or if we are going to find out something new in this movie. What it does make me want to do is a bit of research and possibly read some Thor comics before the movie releases.

Gorr the God Butcher is played by Christian Bale, making his MCU debut. I’m pretty pumped about this one; I’ve seen some chatter about the design of Gorr being too humanistic but I think this might be done because of an actor’s likeness and showing their actual face rather than CGI. That’s just my 2 cents.

We also get to see Zeus, played by Russel Crowe in a hilarious “flick” clip at the very end of the trailer. We’ll see if he plays a bigger role in this movie. Glad to see some returning faces, especially Korg as he is one of my favorite. Can’t wait for it to come out!

The poster looks really badass and I have to say I’m a big fan of the the styling of Thor. Anyways I feel like this is on par with the recent Dr. Strange posters that were also awesome.

Thanks for tagging along, let me know if you’re excited for this movie in the comments! Also if you have any comic recommendations to give me background that would be great. See you next time!

My First Comic Book Purchase Plus Free Comic Book Day

May 19, 2022

Nothing like getting your first comics in your 30's. Diving into this wonderful creative world and not looking back. I’m a graphic designer in the cannabis industry looking to disconnect from the digital world by reading comics. I hope you enjoy my first post, thank you for checking it out!

It seems like getting into comics was meant to be for me this year. About a month ago I had reached out to a friend of mine about how I would love to get into comics but I have no idea where to start. He said something like ‘just dive right in. Start with something you know, characters you like and then also just browse and take your time.’ Fast forward to Free Comic Book Day on May 8 and I finally entered a comic book store for the first time. 

I have been wanting to go to this store for a bit now; I am a fan of Funko Pops but I always just order them online or pick them up at Gamestop. So when my buddy reached back out and said “go pick up your free comic book and get started,” I wasted no time to check it out. The store is called I Want More Comics and I was like a kid in a candy store. I approached the door and saw a big wall of comics on display outside and two employees. I was handed a piece of paper and told to write down the Top 3 comics I wanted and then 2 back ups in case they didn’t have them.

Free Comic Book Day: Dark Crisis #0 FCBD Special Edition 2022, Spider-Man / Venom #1, The-Boys Herogasm

I opted for:

Dark Crisis #0 FCBD Special Edition 2022

I thought it did a good job summarizing what has happened and what is going to happen without the feeling of being overwhelmed. When I first picked this up and read thru it, I didn’t even realize it was a #0 issue and the #1 issue has yet to come out. Luckily the Comic Geeks community helped me out with understanding what I was actually reading.

The Boys-Herogasm

Big fan of the Amazon show and fully expected this issue to be full of the same craziness. Sure enough it was. Couple chuckles, fun little read, glad I picked it up. I’ve also heard rumors that Herogasm will feature in the 3rd season of The Boys on Amazon.

Free Comic Book Day 2020: Spider-Man / Venom #1

Behold my first Spider-Man issue. This was an ok read, I wasn’t really sure who or what was going on. Ultimately I opted for a different Spider-Man series when I went back for my first purchase. 

Now the Venom #1 preview was really badass, awesome action packed panels with some really nice full page shots. Because I'm new to the comic world, I'm not really sure if this is a series that is already ongoing because at the end it says continued in Venom #26. But I thought it was the beginning of #1. After posting about this on Comic Geeks, I was told this run ended last year, SO I might have to go pick this one up at some point.

The colors were dope but the story wasn’t compelling enough for me to garner further interest

I went home and read them right away. I burned thru them so quickly that I was itching to go back to the store and start my actual comic journey and select some issues to start reading. Three days later, I went back and made my first purchases.

Wolverine: Patch Issue #1

X-Men ‘92 House of XCII Issue #1

MEZO Issue 1 (Didn’t realize this was Volume 2)

RAIN Issue #1

Saga Volume 1

Ben Reilly Spider-Man Issues #1-3

Three comics fanned out on a table, Rain, Saga and MEZO

I wanted to pick familiar comics and unfamiliar. Saga and RAIN have me HOOKED!

Following that purchase, I spoke to the person at the counter of my local comic shop of when new issues come out. I wasn’t aware that certain ones come out on certain days, etc. So I went back the next day and was able to pick up issue #4 of Ben Reilly Spider-Man. But the most exciting part of it was picking up Jurassic League Issue #1. 

Be sure to check back next week as I review a couple of these issues. First one up will be Wolverine: Patch Issue #1. See you next time!
