Welcome to Five by Friday! In honor of Captain America: Civil War hitting theaters this weekend and the Marvel fandom dividing between Team Cap and Team Iron Man, today’s Five By Friday is all about our favorite Avengers. To broaden the playing field, we’re including any characters who have ever been part of the Avengers, either in […]
The Marvel Cinematic Universe, which blasted its way onto the film scene back in 2008 with Iron Man and is adding its latest installment this weekend with Captain America: Civil War, has grown over the last eight years into a sprawling juggernaut of a franchise, with twelve films and four TV series already released and […]
It’s May 4th and you know what that means? It’s Star Wars Day! I know, I know, we promised you two full weeks of Marvel goodness as a leadup to Civil War, and I bet you’re wondering where Star Wars fits into all of that. As I’m sure you know, over the past few years […]
Thor. Oh, Thor. To the surprise of exactly zero people in my life, Thor is my favorite Avenger (at least of the ones that have shown up in the MCU so far). I have multiple Thors on multiple desks in my life (two at work, one at home… for now). Thor is beautiful, he is […]
All my friends know that if ever there’s a day where I don’t respond to a text chain with at least one GIF, I’ve probably been taken over by a pod person. I know, I know, some people don’t like GIFs, and if that’s you, that’s cool (but also, you probably shouldn’t give me your number). But for me, I […]

I love Spider-Man. Though I possess an intense hatred for arachnids, I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for the superhero their radioactive bite produced. There’s just something about Spider-Man — and specifically Peter Parker — that is undeniably endearing. I’ll always be a fan of his quips and nerdy sense of humor, of his sense of bravery […]
Welcome to the third installation of The Sorting Hat! This series was created because we enjoy imagining what would happen if characters from other fandoms were starting their first year at Hogwarts and needed to be sorted into the four houses. Sometimes it’s easy to sort someone, and other times (as you’ll see below) it takes compromise and campaigning. […]
Welcome to Five by Friday! This week we’re talking about our favorite fantasy and science fiction worlds that we’d actually like to live in. Sure, there are tons of places out there that are exciting to read about, but when it comes down to it you wouldn’t want to set foot anywhere near there. I mean […]
Welcome to Five by Friday! This week we’re talking about robots, artificial intelligence, androids, cylons… all those man-made creations that come with personalities of their own. Science fiction is full of them, and we’re huge fans. So this week we’re taking a look at our five favorites. Join us in the comments or on your own […]
