by

As a passionate cinephile, I’m thrilled to share that Ridley Scott’s highly anticipated sequel to his Academy Award-winning masterpiece from 2000, “Gladiator II,” is currently reigning supreme on the Netflix global top 10 movies chart.

Uncanny X-Men #19 Is a One and Done With Everything You Could Want (Review)

by

The Uncanny X-Men series has been captivating, with Gail Simone drawing inspiration from the masters. Unlike previous works like MacKay’s X-Men, which seems to heavily rely on past stories, Uncanny X-Men is steering clear of repetition. Instead, it echoes the essence of past X-Men greats such as Chris Claremont. Each issue subtly references past events, and this one is no exception, expanding a plot point that Simone introduced in last year’s Free Comic Book Day Uncanny X-Men issue – the character Uva, a mutant waitress rescued by Jubilee from bigots, which unfolds further in this issue. While doing so, Simone also introduces a significant concept related to the X-Men’s stay in New Orleans and serves up a dose of Deadpool (and Outlaw, who Simone created 23 years ago) action. This can be considered a textbook example of a self-contained story.
