Recently Walt Disney Co. and Netflix announced plans to bring four original live action series to the online TV network. Staring four of Marvel’s popular characters, the series include big names like Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist and Luke Cage in the vicious world of Hell’s Kitchen, New York.

Produced by Marvel Television in association with ABC, this ambitious project, loosely acknowledged as the “Marvel Defenders project“, is raking up the bills.  Ah, but are we going to put a cost on the sheer awesomeness that these series are said to be? Sadly, yes. And it is a very large cost at that.

Last night, Jimmy Kimmel Live had the honor of premiering the world premiere full-length trailer of the upcoming film, Guardians of the Galaxy:

This is a really bold move for the Marvel Entertainment movie industry.  In the past, Marvel movies have been well-loved for their action, serious plot, and brilliant special effects.  However, at this point, most of the well-known characters already have films of their own.   Marvel movies are now moving towards lesser-known characters, so judging from the angle of the trailer, it appears Marvel is pairing action with comedy in Guardians of the Galaxy.  This approach is making me really excited for the upcoming film, set to release 1 August 2014.  Having a comedic action film hopefully will make Guardians of the Galaxy a light-hearteded, enjoyable film that can be watched by fans with any level of comic book knowledge.

Perhaps one of the most burning questions amongst Avatar: The Last Airbender fans was a question posed at the end of Book 3, where Zuko visits ex-Fire Lord Ozai and prison and asks, “Where is my mother”.  Fans were outraged that one of the most interesting stories within the series was left open-ended.  However, unbeknownst to many, the story of Avatar: The Last Airbender has been continuing in the form of a graphic novel series.  One of the most recent story arcs, a 3-part series entitled Avatar: The Search finally revealed the whereabouts and backstory of Zuko’s mother, Ursa.  Keep reading to find out what happened!
