Reviews from the Multiverse: Jughead: The Hunger vs Vampironica #5
Well, better late than never!
I've kept this video on the backlog for months now but I'm finally releasing the final issue of the Archie Horror Crossover! Jughead: The Hunger vs Vampironica!
In this issue we get everything resolved and so many questions answered! Who was the first vampire to come to America? Why is Veronica still a vampire? How can they reverse all this? The only question not answered is, obviously, What happens next?
This whole series has been a fun romp but this last issue feels VERY rushed! The conflict is resolved but no truly epic climax. There are a few legitimately surprising twists! And a new love triangle is formed!
Fred Van Lente is back with one last Marvel Zombies story! One more visit from the Hunger Gospel Virus as we focus on a young mother and her child. Two battle hardened survivors of this world, they try to find joy by celebrating Halloween just for fun.
But with the young boys cat gets out, he runs out after it getting ambushed by a bunch of zombies as well as meeting a strange old man who reeks of brimstone!
Will the boy find his cat and survive? Who is this old man? And most importantly, who is the boys mother? Find out as we go over the last traditional Marvel Zombies book before Secret Wars!

Guy I played through the Resident Evil 2 Remake Demo...OMFG It is SO awesome! It was WELL worth the wait! I have been a long time fan of the franchise and, ironically enough, the first game I ever played was RE 2 (granted it was the N64 version) so it feels like coming full circle! And this looks just so amazing! I just gush about the game, my history with the franchise, I even check out the Trailer shown at the end of the Demo too! So yeah if you're a resident evil fan, PRE-ORDER IT NOW!

Kevin Smith! The guy who created Clerks, Mallrats, Chasing Amy, Dogma, Jay and Silent Bob Strikes back, Jersery Girl, so many movies! He's an open comic book nerd! Has a hot wife and a great Daughter (her names Harley Quinn but blame the wife Not Kevin LMAO) Who has had a long history working ON comics as well as movies! Sure so many of his books are hindered by constant lateness but what has been brought out is some of the best writing out there! Don't believe me? Well come in and see...or are you not even supposed to be here today?

Continuing our King Kong-trospective, Ingrid & I enter the Dino-Era of King Kong! This was a "Modern" adaptation of the original, so of course there's changes. Some worked, A LOT didn't! Doesn't help they wasted money on a failed mech!
When a research ship is sent to explore an island thought to be rich in oil, paleontologist Jack Prescott (Jeff Bridges) sneaks aboard, having heard strange rumors about the island. En route, the crew rescues Dwan (Jessica Lange), the sole survivor of a shipwreck. When they arrive, they find native people living in fear of a monster called Kong. The natives kidnap Dwan and sacrifice her to what turns out to be an enormous ape. Dwan is eventually rescued, and the ape captured for a gala exhibit.

On the newest Lesson of Pro Teaches n00bs, Alex and Ian join me as we go over Venom: The End and...well...if Iron Man The End was a character Piece...this one is bat shit insane!
Basically Adam Warren and Chamba come together and have it be Venom has fallen in love with Organic Life and wants to keep having hosts to replace his all time favorite Eddie (And Avoid his all time least Favorite Peter Parker) but no one matches up! But he must also go to war with Robotic life based on Stark Tech...yeah it's insane!
The alien symbiote who bonded with Eddie Brock has been through a lot… but not nearly as much as he has coming. In a tail that literally spans over a trillion years, Venom travels the length of space and time as the last defender of life in the universe!

Continuing with the epic sized X-Men The End, we talk about the middle installment of this trilogy! And it...well it resolves stuff and sets up things for the finale...just not that great.
After the destruction of the X-Mansion (Again?) as more WarSkrulls attack. Meanwhile we get more set up involving Illiandra, the Shi'Ar, an alternate universe strain of the Brood...but then it's left aside as we wrap up the stuff with Mr.Sinister and FINALLY get an origin for the third summers brother...and it's GAMBIT!
Yeah! Nothing grand about the summers detail...but rather that Gambit, according to this story, was on of Sinster's clones, combined with Summers DNA, who was taken away by one of Sinster's aids and put up for adoption, leading to the Cajun speaking mutant we have today.
OH and Kitty's campaign continues, in what I feel was the best subplot in the whole trilogy.
And...a lot of that is pretty much it. A lot more deaths, many even more pointless, and a lot more set up and a few plots resolved. This installment was pretty...meh.

On today's lesson of Pro Teaches n00bs, Bianca & I wrap up our Elseworlds discussion with Elseworld's Finest: Supergirl & Batgirl! What kind of world would lead to these two being the world's finest? Well it's an interesting one to say the least
It is based in an alternate universe in which Bruce Wayne was never Batman, and the infant Kal-El did not survive long enough to become Superman. The orphaned Barbara Gordon becomes Gotham's near-dictatorial protector, and Kara Zor-El as the Girl of Steel teams with Lex Luthor and the Justice Society.

This one is an interesting Elseworld that works on two fronts. First, it allows the Batman creative teams (at the time) to utilize failed designs for new Batman Costumes they were working on AND it also asks a very good question. "What if Ra's Al Ghul got what he wanted"? What if Ra's DID cause humanity to be whittled down (this case thanks to a Plague induced Apocalypse) AND he killed the Batman! Well we get two answers for that! First, he'd pervert Batman's legacy (Using those discarded designs which exist in-universe) and make a Brotherhood of the Bat to take control of Gotham to mold it how he will. The next would eventually lead to the logical conclusion his belief would take him...that flesh is weak and needs to be replaced!
But who will stop him? Well a young man takes up the mantle...a young man who has VERY close ties to both Bruce Wayne AND Ra's...and he's ready to prove himself!
