(AfroGamers.com) My favorite Adult Swim show ever is The Venture Bros. I grew up on launch-era Cartoon Network and most of the line-up was made up of older cartoons mixed in with a couple of new ones. As time went on, the older cartoons started to take a back seat ...
(AfroGamers.com) The ascension of Marvel’s The Avengers into an A-tier team is actually pretty straight-forward. It all goes back to the late 1990s—1995 to be exact—when Marvel took its first earning loss. A long-running entity such as Marvel should’ve been able to tank the hit and rebound but not only ...
(AfroGamers.com) I love martial arts manga and manhua as we’ve established. While there are a lot of manga out there about martial arts, the South Korea and Chinese martial arts manhua/manhwa are a different beast. Let’s look at seven more martial arts manga (or manhua/manhwa) to check out! Dragon Prince Yuan ...
(AfroGamers.com) Between Judge Dredd and random manga, I’ve been reading the 90s X-Men or X-Men Vol. 2. It’s the first leg of the X-Men Legacy run starting in 1991. It also happened to be the series closest to the popular 90s cartoon. Let’s look at five things that stand out ...

It was this franchise that was extremely popular, always on movie weekends, and just always around…just like Star Trek, actually. So, I’m going to rank the current trilogies or the “Skywalker Saga”. Let’s see ...
(AfroGamers.com) For many of us—including a 90s kid like myself—Cree Summer was one of the voices of our childhood.

(AfroGamers.com) Ah yes, comic book revamps. DC and Marvel are known for revamping their comic book lines when things are starting to get a little stale. It also happens when sales across the board suffer. This often takes the form of starting from the beginning and just going forward with ...
(AfroGamers.com) We’ve got a showdown of two influential manga series! Osamu Tezuka’s iconic shonen series Astro Boy will take on the Golden Duo of Goseki Kojima and Kazuo Koike’s samurai series Lone Wolf and Cub! Both series are ones that heavily influenced my love of manga but which one wins? ...
(AfroGamers.com) Even though it’s been around since the 1980s, there are still mysteries with the Super Mario franchise. His canonical origin has recently raised a question from this fan: is the Super Mario Bros series a pioneer in isekai. What Is Isekai? In manga, anime, and Japanese games, isekai is ...
