One thing I did not care for was how they skipped over his years in the Empire and just went to how he deserted. With Imperial Cadet, Marvel aims to tell that story in a planned five issue miniseries. This will be covering issues 1-3. Beginning with events even earlier than those in Solo, Imperial Cadet #1 sets the stage for Qi’ra and Han’s desire to get off Corellia and how they came to work…

From out of nowhere, Ari Aster immediately put himself on the map as someone to be taken seriously within the genre. The first teaser for MIDSOMMAR doesn’t give much away but shows hints of yet another unnerving look into a cult. The plot synopsis is a couple travels to Sweden to visit their friend’s rural hometown for its fabled mid-summer…

With so many events uncovered on screen during the height of the Republic, it’s a real gold mine for developing new material.

The Weapon With the focus on Mace Windu and his capture on Oosalon in the Outer Rim by terrorists. With a broken lightsaber and seemingly no way out,…

After the mega box office success for Warner Brother’s Aquaman, all eyes are now on what is next for the DC Extended Universe. This is, of course, the first major motion picture for the original Captain Marvel, Shazam! With just a month to go before the release, many were beginning to speculate that there would be no second trailer for the upcoming superhero romp and that director David Sandberg was fine rolling into opening weekend with only the teaser from Comic-Con to promote the movie. That was all gone with a flash after he tweeted on Friday that we would…

The Far Cry fan community has never been more divided than it is at this moment. One must only look at the comment section on any article or video leading up to the release of Far Cry New Dawn to make this determination for themselves. The dissension in the ranks began somewhere between the releases of 2014’s Far Cry 4 and 2016’s Far Cry Primal. The tepid reaction to the former could be written off to the expectation set after the success and now legacy of Far Cry 3 while the latter just seemed like the franchise was out of…

Since I’m new to these Geek Vibes streets, I should preface this piece by saying that if there’s a bigger Stephen King Constant Reader out there than I am, well I have not been fortunate enough to meet this person. I own everything the man has ever written on hardcover and I’ve read most of his stories more than once. Therefore, with the new King Renaissance that is among us after the success of IT, it’s a great time to be a fan. His 1986 classic novel IT was my gateway for all his previous and eventually future writings and…
