Be careful of spoilers because 1960’s Homicidal (now on Tubi) packs a gut punch in its final few minutes. In fact, the director, William Castle, known for his theatrical gimmicks, pauses the movie just minutes ahead of its climax so you can decide whether to finish it or not. It was 1960 and at the

New York Comic Con is not the mecca for toy reveals that it once was, but we haven’t reached a day where collectibles companies are just ignoring it either. And so, while Hasbro didn’t exactly bring out the big guns for their Marvel Legends showing at NYCC 2024, they did bring a solitary BIG gun.
