DCnU 1st Year Anniversary Special #2 : The Best and Worst

DC's New-52's Best and Worst

DC's New-52 reboot completes one year this September. The much hyped retooling after the epic event that was Flashpoint, happened last year and created a storm of controversy, criticism and heavy praise, all at the same time.

To celebrate this long and intense first year, here is my compilation of some best and worst things the New-52 has brought to the fans at large.

Easter Eggs from The Avengers Movie

We've got more Avengers goodness for you today folks! After watching all the awesome Marvel movies, the one thing that stands out is that they're creating these movies like and for fans and there are loads of respectful nods, cameos, easter eggs and clever references in ALL of them.

With that in mind, we decided to watch The Avengers again (it was for you guys, research purposes – the first five times was... well... never mind) and found a bunch of little details that fit the bill:

Classic Fury LMD

Life Model Decoy: Tony Stark replies as his own LMD when Coulson tries to contact him. SHIELD and especially Nick Fury are famous for using LMDs all the time. To those unfamiliar with the concept, Lie Model Decoys are life-like Robot replicas that can take the place of actual person as a stand-in or literally : a decoy.

With the worlds first ever superhero crossover movie event -The Avengers - set to release tonight here in India (special midnight premier screening, don't bother we tried and it's sold out!), everyone is already talking about future marvel projects

The current line-up for Marvel Studios post avengers are as follows:

Iron Man 3 on May 3rd, 2013

Thor 2 on November 15th, 2013

Captain America 2 on April 4th 2014
