Why this Captain America comic series is more important than ever The United States of Captain America miniseries from Marvel Comics is a worthwhile read that showcases the Captain America legacy through diversity and unity.

The United States of Captain America will always be one of my favorite comic runsβ€”and I'm not just saying that because it gave me a Filipina American Cap in Arielle Agbayani. πŸ‡΅πŸ‡­

For @bamsmackpow.bsky.social, I wrote about the importance of the 2021 miniseries: bamsmackpow.com/why-marvel-u...

Why are Peacemaker, Invasion, and Law and Order: SVU all at the same time on Thursdays? How am I supposed to decide whether to watch John Cena, Enver Gjokaj, or Corey Cott first?

7 Reasons to Add Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. to Your Watch List Canon status aside, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is still a worthwhile watch that deserves respect and recognition.

Happy 12-year anniversary to Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.! πŸŽ‰ Whether you've seen it countless times or have yet to check it out, #AgentsofSHIELD is worth the adventure.

The Internet Has Deemed This New Sabrina Carpenter Track as *the* Steve Rogers Song We can't help but think of Steve Rogers whenever we listen to "When Did You Get Hot?" from Sabrina Carpenter's new album, "Man Best Friend."

Being a writer who's just a silly little fangirl is fun, because all the Steve Rogers "When Did You Get Hot?" edits I've watched on TikTok haven't just been leisurely viewingβ€”it was all research! 🀭🫑

How Superman and Krypto’s relationship defines Clark Kent’s heroism Cute and chaotic, Krypto is more than just a fan-favorite sidekick. His role helps characterize the kind of hero β€” and human β€” that Superman has become.

The chaotic Krypto was fun to watch in #Superman, but it's how Clark responded to him that stands out to me.

For @bamsmackpow.bsky.social, I wrote about how Superman and Krypto's relationship characterizes Clark's heroism and humanity.

Daisy and Sousa are not only one of my favorite parts of #AgentsofSHIELD but also my all-time favorite ship and OTP. Interestingly enough, that made this both easy and difficult to write. But I'm so happy I got to write about Dousy in celebration of their upcoming five-year anniversary. πŸ’™πŸ’œ

I saw an early screening of #Superman last night, and I really loved it! I don't think it's perfect, but it's a great movie that's full of hope. There are plenty of things that fellow geeks will enjoy.

β€˜Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ season 7 is the ending the show deserved Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. season 7 deserves love as an ending that honors the show and gives its characters satisfying growth and well-earned happiness.

In true Ashley fashion, I wrote about #AgentsofSHIELD for my first article at @bamsmackpow.bsky.social!

In honor of season 7's fifth anniversary, I wanted to revisit it and discuss why it was the ending the show deserved.

#Thunderbolts* made me laugh, cry, and yell because of all the chaos and emotion it featured, and I had a great time doing soβ€”even if it sometimes hit close to home.

Episode 6 of #DaredevilBornAgain was SO well done. The way Matt's fight and Fisk's fight paralleled and wove into each other was brilliant!
