It’s been quite a long time since fans have seen Henry Cavill’s Superman on the screen. The man started out the entire DCEU, and now doesn’t even get to fulfill cameos, ala Shazam! or Peacemaker. To make matters worse, it doesn’t seem like Warner Bros. has much intention of putting the spotlight anywhere near Cavill and the Man of Steel. The closest fans may get is a project revolving around Calvin Ellis, a black Kryptonian from an alternate timeline....

Although Wanda took down the Hex in Westview in Episode 9 of WandaVision, it’s becoming clear that Billy and Tommy have a future in the MCU as the franchise adds more projects in the coming years....

And how one British lawyer is working to make that happen. In 1996, the Rome Statute was signed by 123 nations. It states that there are four ‘crimes against peace’, or atrocities, as we might call them in everyday speech. These are genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and crimes of aggression. These are the sorts of acts that no one disputes because they’re incontrovertibly viewed as wrong and will be tried at the International Criminal Court (ICC) in the Hague....

AMS certification. Check. Charismatic-verging-on-creepy on-air personality. Check. Impossibly coiffed hair and blinding white teeth. Check. Smokin’ hot bod. Check. Props. Check. Instantly recognizable name that not only rolls off the tongue but elicits giggles, disbelief and inevitable comparisons to adult film stars, superheroes, and/or characters in John Waters’ movies. Check. Silly Names All of the above qualities can help to solidify the career of a television meteorologist, but it’s that last item — a pronounced, even peculiar name — that truly helps a person stand out from his clicker-waving green screen contemporaries....

While 2019’s Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame gave some spotlight to outer space, the last time the MCU properly journeyed into the vast unknown was in 2017’s Thor: Ragnarok. While the MCU’s connectivity is fluid, recent projects have established some static in their respective corners. The mystical consequences of WandaVision had no real impact on the grounded events of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, just as the Multiversal mayhem of Loki was not felt in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings....

Where’s National Naked Mole Rat Awareness Day? National Blobfish Awareness Day? But upon reflection, penguins really do matter....
