Missing a couple of beats, adding some new secret sauce and wrapping it up in one of the funkiest packages we’ve ever seen, “Phase One” is a celebration of the Avengers saga thus far.
This entry in Marvel’s Iron Man franchise from anime powerhouse Madhouse is visually stunning, with a fantastic Japanese voice cast, but the story is bit of a letdown and the English cast just doesn’t work.
Joss Whedon’s Astonishing X-Men comics come alive in these fascinating motion comic editions form Marvel Knights and Shout! Factory.
The Amazing Spider-Man is less a reboot than it is slight retelling of the Spider-Man origin, but it lacks some punch when it comes to consistent action sequences and a clearly defined villain.
This Spider-Man 3 “reissue” from Sony is no more than the identical release minus the second disc of bonus features with new cover art and UltraViolet and a movie ticket offer included. On the positive side, since it is the same, the picture and sound are just as great.

While it doesn’t seem quite as spectacular as it once did, Men in Black still holds quite a bit of entertainment value in this strong transfer to Blu-ray from Sony.
Another collection of Marvel Animated Features from Lionsgate, this 3-Movie Collection includes the previously available Planet Hulk, Doctor Strange, and The Invincible Iron Man.
The origins of Marvel’s Avengers and Next Avengers are told in this 3-movie Blu-ray set, a re-release of previously available feature-length animated films.
