IF ‘THE AVENGERS’ WERE 10 TIMES MANLIER
The Avengers are Earth’s mightiest heroes: a viking god, a bipolar nerd, an alcoholic weapons dealer and the living symbol of a country that has to borrow numbers from China in order to measure its obesity rate.

Now, over a decade later, Gendel has turned back to the story of Picard and the lost civilization of Kataan with “The Outer Light” – a webcomic being released over the next few weeks that continues Picard’s story.
One industry observer next to me said afterward, “It was like seeing Live From The Met at IMAX. Kinda cold.” Another three-time Oscar winner in attendance who has worked on innumerable classic films told me later, “I think we should let him finish it and see what it’s like then, but it seems a little like the look of a soap opera”. Still another media member thought it looked “extraordinary” but felt the high-defness of it all would deeply divide moviegoers, especially those who like the grain of film.
