Since its debut in 2016, the “Hellboy Winter Special” has become an annual tradition for Mike Mignola’s Hellboy Universe.

Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse

By | Dec 10, 2018 | Movies, Reviews

This is a spoiler-free review, but for those wondering, there is one scene after the credits, which is a red herring so astonishing that it will have memeologists discussing it for years to come.

In recent history, Bucky Barnes has become one of Marvel’s most popular characters. He isn’t just a favorite among comic book readers, he’s got mainstream recognition.
