I vow to review all Marvel Movies, Shows and Games in under 280 characters, rated out of 5 Stars.

VisionQuest Episode 3

I love how Vision is basically a Star Trek starship being run from the Holodeck. James Spader obviously steals the show, but I'm impressed with how much everything else works. Tommy was the wild card and Ruaridh Mollica is killing it. Paladin is the weak link.

Marvel Legends Beast (X-Men '97)

This was the missing piece of my core X-Men '97 team. I love that clean angular boxy design that, when combined with the foot articulation, makes resting in the squat position a breeze. He came with a bunch of tech, but that extra feral head goes against his brand.

Marvel Legends Onslaught

This is a rerelease of the Red Onslaught BAF, but with an updated glossy gradient paint job. My complaint is the cheap flat shell on his back. Interestingly, the extra details on the thighs are seemingly from his appearance in Marvel Vs Capcom, not the comics.

Marvel Legends Doctor Doom (Doomsday)

While he isn't movie accurate due to being based on outdated concept art, the detail on the mask was just too good to pass up. The metal finish looks well worn and you can tell the mask is a separate piece affixed over the eyes for that full Dr. Doom effect.

Hulk Vs. Thor

It starts strong but loses focus and mismanages the short run time. If they needed to cram in characters, I'd have preferred the comic accurate and underused Alpha Flight. Deadpool and Taskforce X against Hulk is too samey. It's missing a third act.

Premiere: Jan 27, 2009

Marvel Legends Magic: The Gathering Black Panther

I didn't know he came with the Infinity Gauntlet until I saw it on the back of the Malice box. Now this is a deluxe figure packed with articulation and extras. I will be cutting that belt off to better match his appearance in Jonathan Hickman's Secret Wars though.

Nova: Return of the Rings (2026) 1

Sam Alexander's return is little more than a prologue to an upcoming Iron Man arc. Unfortunately, this did little to entice me to follow him over there, but we'll see. The back-up story was much better. I would easily buy a Nova series with Andy Pereira's art.

Marvel Legends Magic: The Gathering Doctor Doom 2099

Now this was well worth the wait and extra Magic Card tax. Just look at the point and lightening effects. The massive arching cape is pretty imposing. He steals the spotlight on my Dr. Doom figure display. Thank Marvel Rivals for reviving interest in him and Malice.
