With 'Captain America: Civil War' raging in theaters, it is a good time to take a look at the comic that inspired it: Marvel’s 'Civil War' (2006-07) by Mark Millar and Steve McNiven. Like Frank Miller’s 'The Dark Knight Returns' (1986) and Alan Moore’s 'Watchmen' (1986-87), Civil War pits superheroes against one another in a battle to decide the proper role of super-powered crime-fighters in a democracy.

The acclaimed cultural commentator has penned a limited series of Marvels African superhero, and the timing couldn’t be better. You have no people. You are no longer my son.

Excellent art and some interesting ideas aren't quite enough to make this ambitious but messy riff on Captain America work.

For anyone who feared that the good-but-not-great Thor: The Dark World was indication that the Marvel Cinematic Universe franchise was losing some steam, there’s nothing to fear: Captain America is here.

Good timing on this latest episode of Super Power Beat Down since we're a couple weeks away from the U.S. release of Captain America: Winter Soldier and just several days away from the international release.

Here's a great new advert for Chevrolet in which the actors in the trailer for Captain America: Winter Soldier are replaced with kids.

No matter how hard life gets there are always reasons to live, and at Pop Mythology we find that pop culture alone gives us more than enough reasons to endure. And so with 2014 coming on fast, here is our list of the stuff we anticipate most.

Last fall, I saw a few articles online about how some window washers who serviced a local children’s hospital came up with the idea of donning costumes of superheroes like Spider-Man and Captain America and going to work that way. Their management approved of the idea and they did it …
