Amazing Spider-Man 2 Declines Jackpot; No Longer Features Mary Jane Watson

by Susana Polo | 2:46 pm, June 19th, 2013

Just a few days ago we were saying to The Amazing-Spider-Man franchise, “Whoah, buddy, slow down! You can’t just greenlight two more sequels when you haven’t finished your first one yet! Except I guess you can. I mean you just did. Just… stay safe, Amazing Spider-Man. There are people who care about you.”

Among those people are actress Shailene Woodley, tapped to play Mary Jane Watson in a small role in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, but what everybody assumed would be a larger one come TASM 3, after the assumed death of Gwen Stacy. Woodley now says that she won’t be appearing in TASM 2 at all.

DC & Marvel Character Mashups Make For Some Interesting Cosplay Ideas

by Jill Pantozzi | 2:32 pm, June 8th, 2013

Eric Guzman has some great DC and Marvel animated-style illustrations on his DeviantArt page but it’s his recent mashups that really caught our eye. He combined the general costume ideas for two character to create something incredibly unique. So much so, I’m already trying to figure out how I can pull off Poison Scorpion. And he put some real thought into which two superheroes or villains would come together best. Take a look.

This Porn Parody Allows Wolverine And Spider-Man To Be In The Same Movie [VIDEO]

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:35 am, May 18th, 2013

I’m constantly amazed at how porn parodies manage to do what big Hollywood blockbusters can’t. Not only do they bring characters together the studios can’t because of rights issues but they utilize characters we’ve been waiting to see on screen forever. And Wolverine gets his classic costume. This must be magic.

Here’s Jamie Foxx As The Amazing Spider-Man 2′s Electro. It’s Weird. You’ve Been Warned.

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:21 am, April 16th, 2013

Well we already knew they weren’t going to make Jamie Foxx dress up in a yellow and green supervillain costume for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 but I’m not sure this is what anyone expected Electro to look like. Those lights might be tracking dots with the added value of creating some electric glow to help with post-production but what do you think of the look? Looks like they’re taking the mutated villain route again. I’m assuming this is an in between look and that he’ll have a full costume later in the film.

Have Some Greek Mythology with Your Superheroes

by Rebecca Pahle | 12:10 pm, March 28th, 2013

As a nerd whose very first foray into nerdery was an elementary school obsession with Greek mythology, Nicholas Hyde‘s Greek-inspired superhero art is like ambrosia for my eyes.

(Yes, it makes them immortal. Clearly that’s what I meant.)

Hit the jump for Greek-style Spider-Man and Thor.

There is An Alternate Universe Where Anne Hathaway Was Black Cat in Spider-Man 4

by Susana Polo | 4:15 pm, March 6th, 2013

Sam Raimi is making the PR rounds for Oz: The Great and Powerful, and seeing as how the second Spider-Man franchise in as many decades is currently filming its first sequel (*sniff* They grow up so fast!), he’s naturally being asked what he would have done if Spider-Man III hadn’t pretty much squished that version of the character with a tissue (at least in the court of public opinion).

Turns out, he would have hired Anne Hathaway.
