Trailers for The Marvels and Harley Quinn season 4

Two new trailers for female led superhero projects by Marvel and DC dropped recently. 

First off, we have a full trailer for the new superheroine movie: The Marvels, which teams up Captain Marvel, Photon and Ms. Marvel, two of them already starred in feature films (Kamala had her own show) but Photon had a secondary role in Wandavision besides being introduced in the first Captain Marvel movie. The trio will stop the Kree and figure out why they are swapping places every time they use their powers.

Can Marvel finally have their own female-only superhero movie and make it good? Who knows. It looks fine for what it is but I am not getting my hopes up high because the last few superheroine movies weren't all that great. It's good to see that they have been giving women a more respectable place in the franchise in recent years, considering what they used to do with Black Widow and all that. 

 

Hopefully it will deliver.

Next up, Harley Quinn and her friends will give us more laughs in this brand new season of her show. I remember liking this series for the most part but it became a bit tiresome and self complacent for much of it. It just kind of felt like a normie show that didn't require much thought or knowledge about the comics, which is fine, we are dealing with its own version here, enough people like it to make it worth watching after all these years.

Looks like they will keep up the sex and violence, raunchiness is the show’s bread and butter, with the writers being moderately successful at it. It goes overboard sometimes and it’s also, again, very normie with that subject too, evidenced by the fact that Nightwings butt will be a pivotal part of the show in this new season, which is an old tired joke that stopped being relevant years ago for comic fans.    

Either way, it does look fun so far. I hope it will be good.  

Gotta say, for comic book and geek media, this is another good sign of progress. It's nice the way we have gotten more mainstream female lead movies and tv shows. Keep them coming!
