Star Wars: The Clone Chronicles
Star Wars is one of the most iconic film franchises in history. Many different stories are told; from all different perspectives whether it is the movies, or the various books that have been published. There has been one group in both trilogies whose origin story has been portrayed, but after that, we know what they do, but not much more about them. In the original trilogy, it was the Storm troopers, and in the new trilogy it was the Clone troopers. We know their origin, but I thought it would be interesting to try and find a behind the scenes story. Star Wars: The Clone Wars TV show explored this a bit, and I want to continue the story. I’m going to take a soldier, and write a short story from their perspective, which will include their opinions, and thoughts about the war they are in, the soldiers who fight beside them, etc. Some of them might be long, and some of them might be short, but I hope you like them nonetheless. Here is the first part of I want to call, The Clone Chronicles.

Star Wars is back! When Disney bought Lucasfilm and announced a new slate of movies, fanboys and fangirls everywhere rejoiced. Since the original trilogy had been released, there have been numerous book published, comic books written, video games created and many other products that established a vast expanded Star Wars universe. Which storylines from this universe would be explored in the new movies.

What If...... Captain American was never frozen?
Everyone loves Captain America. The story of the hero of
World War 2, who was frozen in a block
of ice. Only to be awoken decades later in a time of need. What would the world
be like if he were never frozen? Would H.Y.D.R.A destroy S.H.I.E.L.D from the
inside? What would have be his place in the decades leading up to the twentieth century? We can
only guess. Here is a short tale of what might have happened, if Captain
America was never frozen in ice.

The Flash: Season 1 Recap
Season 1 of "The Flash" is now in the books. The Spinoff from Arrow, The Flash focuses on Barry Allen as the fastest man alive, and his journey towards becoming a hero, and finding out who, or what killed his mother when he was a boy. He made it his mission to find out the truth, and to find justice for his father, who was incarcerated for murdering his wife. It was a great season overall, but there were definitely some highs, and some lows to this season. I'll go through what I think they were, along with some predictions/hopes for next season. (Possible spoilers ahead)

Arrow: Season 3 Recap
Arrow is over for now, and it is always sad for me when the season ends. My standard Wednesday night activity is watching this amazing show (when it is on). This season has had its ups and downs, its highs and lows, but thankfully, the season ended on a high note. Here is a short summary of the season, complete with some highs, lows and some predictions/hopes for the future. (Spoilers ahead for those who haven't seen the finale/the season as whole).

Costume Critics
Before any comic book movie is
released, there is one thing on the mind of fans around the world. Everyone is
interested in what the costumes of their favorite heroes or villains will look
like. Will it stay true to the comics,
or will there be an entirely new vision of what the character will look like,
or even how he/she will act. Sometimes however, there can be a lot of
negativity towards how a character is portrayed on screen, whether it be
personality wise, or how he/she looks.
The fans sometimes make such a big deal about their hatred of a costume,
and all the hatred, and how they portray it is borderline childish and stupid.

What If..... The Joker was never created.
When people think of Batman’s
numerous enemies, there is always one name that stands out above the rest. The
Joker is easily the Batman’s greatest foe, and nobody else comes close. He is
insane, and kills with no rhyme or reason. He has been portrayed twice in
movies, and will have a 3rd portrayal in the near future. But what
do you think Batman’s life would be like, if the accident that turned the master criminal known as The Red Hood into the psychopathic killer known as The Joker, never happened.

Captain Cold Kicks Ass!!
The Flash is arguably the best superhero/comic book TV show currently on air. It is lighthearted, fun, upbeat, and brings together a great ensemble of characters, including a fun and quirky star character, and a great supporting cast. While it started strong, some of the episodes seemed to blur together, often resulting in the same outcomes: the Flash wins, and the bad guys go to jail. A friend of mine was getting bored of it and hoped that something was going to change. In the fourth episode of the season, he got his change with the introduction of Leonard Snart aka Captain Cold (played excellently by Wentworth Miller). Miller brings a whole new vibrancy to the show as one of the Flash's main villains, and he is (in my opinion) one of the best parts of the show. He brings some unique plot points to the show, and does what the other characters just can't do. (Spoilers ahead if you haven't watched the show)
