For Star Wars fans, The Original Trilogy remains somewhat sacred, and whilst both the Prequel Trilogy and the Disney franchise movies continue to have both their fans and a number of detractors, most agree that George Lucas’s seminal trilogy remain the benchmark.

Written by Brian Michael Bendis | Art by Alex Maleev | Published by DC Comics I tend to find that Bendis’s name attached to a huge company-wide crossover can either be a brilliant thing or a terrible one. Bendis at the top of his game is a joy, he can write some cracking dialogue and […]

Welcome to this week’s Monday Night Raw, right here on Nerdly. I’m Nathan Favel and we have the calm before the storm known as Stomping Ground. Let’s see if Vince understands that the Fire Fly Funhouse is just designed to make fun of him. I can’t believe it took Lance Storm to get it through […]
