The Burning Valley
There weren’t always dragons in the valley. The Red River Valley was once saturated with music, dances, and dueling griots who recited tale after tale seeking the loudest applause and praise from the gathered tribes. Applause that echoed down the valley’s copper cliffs and faded into the rocks, adding to the stones’ vast memory of all those who had dwelled within its might for thousands of years.

Zack Snyder's Justice League Review (SPOILER FREE)
It's difficult to understate the uniqueness surrounding this film. So much so it's difficult to really categorize it to people who haven't been following the biopic-worthy drama behind it. Is it a remake? A director's cut? A sequel? Alternate universe? Is it canon to the rest of the DCEU? The most direct answer is, Zack Snyder's Justice League is simply, the Justice League film we were meant to have way back in 2017. It is Zack Snyder's unfiltered, unhinged, and unrestricted vision for the iconic heroes of the DC Universe.

The Jengu's Fortune
The waves held no mercy. They tore through the wood of the raft, ripped off the mast, and devoured the last of the rope. The sail, or what was left of it, twisted above the roaring sea free and ignorant of the turmoil. Lubwa kicked against the wicked current that constricted him. The shore was a faint speck of shadow and silhouette against the roaring torrent. The raindrops hammered against his skin. Each impact like falling metal. The depths of the sea opened its mouth wide, prepared to claim yet another unfortunate sailor as its next meal. It was a fate that Lubwa knew would be his one day. Every time the sail was hoisted, every time the hull cut through the waves, every time men dared to encroach on the domain of the sea goddess, Mukwano, they risked her fury. No mercy would be given. So Lubwa wouldn’t ask for it.

Black Superman: I'm Supposed to be Excited....But I'm NotTop Story - February 2021
It was officially announced that WB will be rebooting Superman yet again. This time with J.J. Abrams in the producer chair and acclaimed writer Ta-Nehisi Coates helming the story. As a Black male comic-book fan, huge Superman nerd, fan of all of Coates's work especially his run on Black Panther, this should be the holy grail.
