By 2014, the Marvel Cinematic Universe was already an unstoppable juggernaut. Still relishing in the success of 2012’s The Avengers making over $1.5 billion at the box office, the MCU took a chance on a rag tag group of not-so familiar superheroes, The Guardians of the Galaxy. For 2014’s Guardians of the Galaxy, director James Gunn (Slither) blended the perfect mixture of action and comedy, and made some of the best gambles in the history of film casting. The doofus from Parks and Recreation, a WWE wrestler, Vin Diesel to voice a walking tree who says three words”¦ this bizarre recipe generated $773 million in domestic profits and proved that the MCU was borderline infallible. Guardians just felt different from the other good, yet generic superhero outings and it remains one of the most beloved films of its genre.

It’s Ash vs Evil Dead week for me over at Geeks of Doom. I got a chance to interview the three lead cast members, reviewed the upcoming Blu-Ray release, and met Bruce Campbell at a book signing in New Jersey. One of the highlights was getting to speak to Ray Santiago, aka Ash’s trusted sidekick Pablo Simon Bolivar. The Bronx born actor has been a pivotal part of the Starz series since its premiere in 2015, supporting his “jefe” through plenty of deadite-fueled adventures. Last season on Ash vs Evil Dead, Pablo faced several challenges from his body being possessed by the Book of the Dead, to terrifying visions, and oh yeah, there was the bit about him dying. With Ash vs Evil Dead season 3 already completed and awaiting a release date from Starz, I spoke with Pablo himself about his experiences during season 2 and what to look forward to on the upcoming season.

Netflix’s Marvel TV universe has seen great success and fan appreciation with their four original series — Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, Iron First — and latest ensemble miniseries The Defenders. But one of the biggest surprise hits to come out of this universe — specifically from Daredevil — has been Jon Bernthal‘s Frank Castle aka The Punisher, who is now getting his own spin-off series.

Netflix has released a new teaser trailer for the upcoming series, Marvel’s The Punisher. Watch the teaser called “Demolition” here below.

Last night saw the airing of the penultimate episode of Season 7 of Game Of Thrones. This season is not only flying by, but the events unfolding are happening at an extremely quick pace as well, unlike with previous seasons. We’ve gotten lots of reveals and bombshells dropped now that Winter Is Here, but there’s still something major yet to come: the full-blown war between the living and the dead.

HBO has released a preview video for the upcoming Season 7 finale, which you can watch here below.

It has been a pleasure to watch Locke & Key blossom over the years. Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez have consistently astounded me and not once managed to disappoint me with this series. So when IDW Publishing decided to compile Locke & Key: Heaven And Earth Deluxe Hardcover Edition, I was understandably excited. There is more than just a few choice bits here, these are some hard to find stories being made available again.
