WOW! What a week it has been in comic book media news! From Marvel revealing a litany of new shows and properties at D23, to Joker becoming the first R Rated DC film of all time, and we can’t forget the family court drama that is Sony and Disney wrestling over Spider-Man. We thought we’d take our time this week and give each of these announcements some breathing room as we sift through the madness is Marvel in a post-Spider-Man/ D23 world while exploring some of the new and exciting directions the MCU seems to be going with interesting new characters.

We are here today to mourn the shows we have lost in the battle of Disney +. Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Luke Cage, The Punisher and Defenders gave as a glimpse at a gritty, street level superhero universe, and had us at the edge of our seats with innovative fight scenes, brilliant acting and enigmatic villains. Join us as we pay our respects to Marvel Netflix and leave Marvel’s NYC for the last time.

When one of Batman’s most famous stories gets an animated adaptation, you KNOW Major Issues is on the case! Based on the Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee story of the same name written in 2003, Batman Hush takes Bruce Wayne back to his detective roots, and does its best to honor the source material while offering fresh surprises for those who follow the comics.
There is still the Catwoman /Batman action the story is famous for, with some added twists and turns along the way. In the film, Batman’s enemies are acting stranger than usual, and a mysterious bandaged puppet-master seems to be at the center of the chaos. Featuring cameos from the greatest rogue gallery in comic book history, a love affair between masked vigilantes, and some painful blasts from the past, can the World’s Greatest Detective solve this increasingly personal puzzle and find love?

What happens when you mix the best and brightest superheroes in DC’s pantheon with the very real ramifications of dealing trauma and mental health? You get Tom King’s 9 issue limited series entitled Heroes in Crisis. King, a former CIA agent in his own right is no stranger to subjects like PTSD, but how does his brand of storytelling gel with the rest of the DC Universe?
Follow along as we talk about Sanctuary, a safe haven for all heroes dealing with trauma. When multiple heroes turn up dead, it’s up to the Justice League to find the culprit in a story that tries to show us a different side of our favorite caped characters. Did King’s message come through? What does HIC say about mental health? We talk all that and more in our review of Heroes in Crisis!

The second installment of Holland’s web-slinging hero brings back the heart, humor, and spectacle of the first whilst turning the knob on the stakes way up. Now that MCU's Spider-Man has swung back into theaters and into our hearts, was the film any good?
FFH follows Tom Holland aka Peter Parker tries to navigate life post Avengers:Endgame. For the first time since his introduction, Spider-Man seems to not want the responsibility placed on him as the “next Tony Stark”, he just wants to be a regular kid. Luckily, on a tour of Europe, he finds a mentor in the form of Quentin Beck’s Mysterio, but as we learn in Far From Home, things are more than likely not what they seem!

The final season of Jessica Jones was released earlier this month, also marking the last season of Marvel Netflix shows. It continues the story of hard-boiled and super-powered P.I.

This time she has a serial killer hot on her trail, and a sister hell-bent on revenge, making for possibly the most emotional Jessica Jones season yet! Grab your favorite leather jacket and pour one last glass of bourbon as we take a look at the last season of Jessica Jones on Netflix
