‘Luke Cage’ Delivers On The Unapologetic Blackness It Promised
If you’re like me, then you’ve been binge-ing Luke Cage (and live-tweeting it if you’re about that life) all weekend. And if you’ve been bingeing Luke Cage all weekend, then you know that it is as Black as we all anticipated. I pondered about how I was going to approach the cat that is Luke … Continue reading

Son of Mephisto: Why Charlie Hunnam Would Make A Great Ghost Rider
Let me make this clear: I despise the Ghost Rider movies. Seriously. I hate them. I can’t stand them. My left eye starts to twitch erratically anytime I’m near a screen that is playing them like some sick and twisted Spidey Sense™.
