I hate to say this in a world where every single Marvel show on Netflix has been cancelled. With this first trailer for the second season of The Punisher , I really wasn't as impressed as I'd have liked to be. I can't put my finger on exactly what it is that doesn't do it for me here, but just off top, Jon Berthal doesn't come off as the Frank Castle of we've known from Daredevil or the even the first season for that matter. Not to mention I'm hating the look of the guy we're not going to officially call Jigsaw. Maybe it was those two things mixed with the excess in daylight scenes. Combine that with that fact that I personally think this one will join the void of cancellation the others were thrown into after this season, & it's real hard to get excited. And that's coming from someone who thought the first season was one of Netflix's best so far, save the first season of Daredevil . Anyway, I so hope this proves me wrong. I want this to be good. Hell, great even. The Punisher was one of my favorite comics when I was a kid. So, that said, I've still got my fingers crossed. Curious though, what did y'all think of the trailer?

Looks Like I'm A Little Late To The First Actual Trailer For "Iron Fist" Season 2
I heard a lot of negative feedback for the first season of Marvel's Iron Fist on Netflix. Personally, I loved it. Out of the first seasons of each show, I thought it came in second, right under Daredevil. So, needless to say I was really excited when I saw the date announcement a couple weeks ago. Then I clicked it. Honestly, I would've been more happy with just a logo & a date. The video we got might've worked if it was for season 1, but it's not. This video up top though is more of a teaser trailer. Personally, I would've used this to announce the date. Edit it down of course, but this one built on season 1 without spoiling it. Hinting at what we can probably expect from Season 2. Leaving aside spoilers, on top of protecting the city, I'm guessing we're picking up on the search for KunLun. The hidden which Danny seems have some memories resurfacing. The video shows the classic Iron Fist mask from the comics, & what looks like a pretty brutal tournament. If I had to guess this was probably for the mantle of Iron Fist. Even though the mask looked a little cheesy, this was an awesome teaser. I can't wait until September 7th. If it's on the same level as Punisher & especially Luke Cage season 2, we're gonna be in for a real treat. Loved this, even if I did see it 3 days late. What did y'all think? Are y'all in for Iron Fist season 2? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
New Trailer For "Luke Cage" Looks Very Promising
June 22nd is now one of the most anticipated dates on my calendar. This new trailer for Luke Cage season 2 is awesome! I loved the first season's first half. After Cottonmouth's demise however, it quickly fell apart. This one looks like it might fix that downfall by putting Mariah in the crosshairs of new baddie, Bushmaster. Who looks like he's gonna be friggin awesome by the way. Putting Mariah in his line looks like it's gonna be a nice way to curb her story. It puts her under Cage's reluctant protection, effectively switching the narrative to this new, invincible, bullets bounce off him, magic man. This trailer actually looks like this season could top Daredevil , which for me has been the high point for Netflix's Marvel shows. Can't wait though, what do y'all think of this new trailer?

Frank Castle Will Be Returning For A Second Season
Marvel's The Punisher on Netflix has probably wound up being my favorite Netflix show so far. Not just my favorite Netflix/Marvel show, but my favorite Netflix show period. They just got every part of this one so right. In fact, usually I'd throw away some episodes so far on almost every one of these Netflix/Marvel seasons. This one had me at every episode. So it's needless to say I got pretty excited when Netflix just announced season 2. With Disney trying their handf at a streaming service soon these show's futures are really in the air. I'm really glad they're going to get a second run. Hopefully, they'll keep with the story they've started & just pick up where they left off. Maybe see the villain I don't want to spoil team up with Kingpin for his revenge even?!? One can only hope... What do y'all think of The Punisher getting a second run? Check out this featurette on the first season, & put it in the comments, like, & share.
Iron Fist Will Appear In Season 2 Of Marvel's "Luke Cage"
Season 2 of Luke Cage is right around the corner & Entertainment Weekly has an exclusive pic Cage (Mike Colter) with the Immortal Iron Fist (Finn Jones). Actual details of Danny Rand's involvement has been kept mute, but these pics let us know that the heroes for hire will be coming into contact at least once during season 2. I pretty excited about all this, I loved the first half of Luke Cage. (SPOILERS) At least, until Cottonmouth died, & it became a-whole-nother show. In addition, unlike a lot of viewers, I really liked Iron Fist, & The Defenders for that matter. Especially if you keep in mind that they are supposed to be TV quality, & they're damn near movie quality. Anyway, I can't wait, & if I can make a suggestion (Because Netflix totally listens to what I say..) lets scrap any ideas for season a 3 on both these. Then we can get to work with Danny, Luke, & Misty on a Heroes for Hire series. That concept would keep the writing pretty easy from season to season. What do y'all think though? Of Iron Fist popping up in Luke's second season, & my Heroes for Hire pitch? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
Misty Knight Whole Again With A Spoiler For Marvel's Defenders
I'm really surprised we're getting pictures of this only weeks from the release of the Marvel/Netflix superhero team-up The Defenders. This was one of the main "WTF?" moments of the series that brings together Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage, & the Immortal Iron Fist. So needless to say, of you haven't seen the newest series this is definitely somewhat of a SPOILER & you've now been warned. Those that have seen it will recall detective Misty Knight shedding some weight the easy way, as Bakuto lopped off her left arm at the end of the season. Now surprisingly early, Entertainment Weekly has the first pics of Misty sporting her new bionic appendage on the set of Luke Cage Season 2, bringing her closer to her comic-book counterpart. The arm looks surprisingly more like a "real-life" prosthetic than what I was expecting. In the comics it's got a handful (punny) of special features much like Coulson's hand in the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. television show. This looking a "real-life" as it does makes me wonder if we'll be seeing any of those special features or if they'll keep it more "grounded"? Just off looks I would have to say I wanted a little more of a futuristic sci-fi edge, but I really want to hold off any real judgement until I see it in action in 2018. Anyway, what do y'all think? Do y'all like the look? Do y'all think this is a little early to release? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
The Best Part Of Jessica Jones Is Coming Back
Jessica Jones is without a doubt, my least favorite of the solo outings so far for Marvel's Defenders on Netflix. That being said however, I think it had one of the best villains in the Marvel Universe in the Purple Man. So obviously I'm excited at EW's official announcement that David Tennant will be returning to the role when the series returns next year for season 2. Details are under wraps, & if you've seen the first season (SPOILERS) you know he doesn't have the best day ever when it comes to the last episode. This puts us in a Kingsman type situation. He was the best part so obviously you want to bring him back, but how do you do so post-mortem? I'm expecting a run of flashbacks. There's no telling what else Jessica was made to do while under his powers. No matter how they try to pull this off, it's a welcome addition. What do y'all think of this development? For that matter, where do you stand on Jessica Jones altogether? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
Marvel's "Jessica Jones" Adds J.R. Ramirez For Season 2
In an EW exclusive "Jessica Jones" has added Power & Arrow actor J.R. Ramirez to season 2 as Oscar. A single father & new superintendent to the building, his son becomes infatuated with Jessica. Meanwhile Oscar keeps his distance to avoid the trouble that follows Ms. Jones. I'm going to be honest, I watch Arrow & I had to look up who this guy was. When I found that he was Ted Grant, the guy who trained Dinah Laurel Lance, I at least remembered him. Not sure that's such a great sign, but at least I don't remember him negatively. It was a small part, so I get why I don't remember him. This is all scheduled for Netflix sometime in 2018, & I just hope this is more consistent than Season 1. The episodes I liked were great, but some of them just seemed to drag along. This time she won't have David Tennant to keep things interesting. Anyone think anyway about this news?
