Why, yes. Yes we did. While we try
to spread out the theme months to offer a fresh selection every time, this year
there’s just too much going on in the world of comics to let it pass without
recognition. Firstly, there’s the first-ever big screen adaptation of Wonder
Woman on June 2nd, and the much-anticipated Marvel Cinematic
Universe version of Spider-Man
on June 7th. Then, we had Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart’s
respective X-Men swansongs in Logan back in March, which
was also the month that put Ghost in the Shell back
into the public consciousness (for better or worse). The
Smurfs returned to theaters in a rebooted franchise in April. Let’s not
forget the slew of sequels including Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2, Kingsman: The
Golden Circle, Thor:
Ragnarok and Justice League. And that’s
just the movies!
Cinematic Justice League. |
This
month, we’ll be focusing on more comics outside of the Big Two (we’ll get back
to them soon enough, don’t worry) that Hollywood saw fit to adapt into a
Saturday Morning cartoon. So, pull out that secret stash of comics you don’t
want anyone to know about—this month, EVERYONE is a comic fan!
Ghost in the Shell. |
