To many starstruck fans, comic book artists wield as much magic and power as the superheroes they draw. But in reality, it's not so much magic as hard work, grit and determination.

The story of what really happened behind the scenes of Disney’s Han Solo movie is starting to come out, and it sounds like ousted directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller were a bit too free-wheeling for Lucasfilm’s Star Wars machine.

It's the day before Friday, and you know what that means: Happy Thorsday!

That's right, we've officially re-dubbed this particular day of the week in honor of one of our favorite Avengers (the best Avenger, in my opinion, with Cap a very close second). In honor of Thor himself, remember to drink lots of coffee (without the smashing of mugs), and if you have the chance to square off against one of your work friends in a gladiator-style fight to the death a la Thor: Ragnarok, TAKE IT.

Barring all that, check out some of our favorite links from the day!

If you've seen John Carpenter's The Thing (1982), then you've obviously experienced the horror of what that shapeshifting alien does to the unsuspecting humans (and dogs) inside Outpost 31. If you're a horror nerd, you've most definitely appreciated what it took to bring those nightmare-inducing effects to life.

Another day, another new Star Trek: Discovery goodie.

While yesterday gave us our first look at Jason Isaacs totally rocking that new Starfleet uniform as the Discovery’s Captain Lorca, today we have our first peek at one of the show’s new (old?) transporter rooms. Because yes, there will be more than one.

Iron Man apparently won't be the only member of the Marvel Cinematic Universe to come visit Spider-Man in his own franchise.

One of the most exciting aspects of Spider-Man: Homecoming is that Robert Downey Jr. shows up in the movie as Tony Stark/Iron Man, acting as Peter Parker's mentor and collaborator while continuing to integrate Spidey's world into the MCU and vice versa.

The next DC Universe Original Movie from DC Animation is following in the footsteps of last year's The Killing Joke and Return of the Caped Crusader and heading to theaters for a special one-night-only screening hosted by Fathom Events. Batman and Harley Quinn will head to movie theaters nationwide in the U.S. on August 14, 2017, at 7:30 p.m. local time.

Being Thor isn’t easy.

Dream Casting is an imaginative look at the casting process of potential Hollywood movies based on comics and other media. This isn't about the movies that are being made, this is about the movies that should be made, and who we think should star in them.

James Cameron’s Avatar sequels just added a Game of Thrones alum to the cast.

Nickelodeon is digging into the vault for its next original project, reviving the beloved Nicktoon Rocko’s Modern Life with an hourlong TV movie.

Cosmological natural selection is the new Darwinism.

Previously titled Saw: Legacy, the new Saw flick headed to theaters this Halloween has been given a much better title by naming it Jigsaw, after the franchise's psychopathic orchestrator of twisted justice. Tobin Bell played the diabolical deliverer of death, but his character is now deceased, with his master plans still being enacted by misguided acolytes.

Incidentally, Jigsaw was the preferred first title of the debut film written by James Wan and Leigh Whannell. So if anything, the latest sequel is finally bringing things full circle.

On June 25, 1982, John Carpenter's reimagining of Howard Hawks' The Thing From Another World (which itself was actually an adaptation of John W. Campbell Jr.'s novella Who Goes There?) hit theaters as The Thing. Terrifying, visceral and moody, Carpenter's pressure-cooker exploration of man's paranoia in a remote outpost in Antarctica was not exactly embraced by critics or mainstream audiences, who preferred to go in droves to see that nice alien, E.T.

We’re exactly a year away from the premiere of Jurassic World 2, and to whet our appetite for the upcoming blockbuster film, Universal Pictures has released a new poster revealing the movie’s official title.

Directed by J.A. Bayona (The Orphanage, A Monster Calls) from a script by Colin Trevorrow and Derek Connolly (Jurassic World), the new dino-filled movie will be titled Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom.

While Neill Blomkamp takes a bit of a break from Hollywood, the filmmaker is getting back to his roots with some independent shorts — and the latest one is straight off the VHS cassette from the 1980s.

The up-and-coming director of A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night has followed up that acclaimed horror-Western hybrid with something equally strange.

In The Bad Batch, filmmaker Ana Lily Amirpour mixes one part Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome and one part El Topo, shakes them up vigorously and creates a surreal, psychedelic and often nightmarish excursion into a near-future America that -- as weird as it is -- doesn't feel too far off from reality.

Not everyone may know this, but Once Upon a Time (that'd be back in 2014), Sofia Coppola (The Beguiled) was working on Universal Pictures and Working Title’s live-action Little Mermaid movie, based on Hans Christian Andersen’s fairy tale.

Well, that didn't take long. After learning that Phil Lord and Chris Miller have left Disney’s standalone Han Solo film earlier this week, Lucasfilm and Disney have tapped veteran filmmaker Ron Howard to step in and take over the project.

After playing a key role in Marvel Comics’ universe-reshaping Secret Wars event, the Fantastic Four have largely been sidelined over the past year or so — but is Marvel’s First Family getting back together? Or at least a few of them?
