Preparing For 'Captain America: Civil War'
Marvel Comics

With only a week away for the release of the newest addition into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, "Captain America: Civil War," fans are re-watching some of our most beloved avengers, and the moments that brought them together, as well as the moments that brought them at opposite ends of their weapons. The newest addition will be featuring the greatest conflict, among the superheroes, that brings the Marvel universe to a standstill of not just strength, but morality, ideology, integrity, and the definition of justice.

However, we must not forget the Marvel Cinematic Universe is based on the comics. The Marvel event took place between 2006 to 2007; it is 98 comics, officially. Ultimately, and without spoilers, everyone is trying to do what they believe is right, and it is all of their interpretations of what is right that puts them at opposite ends. Some fans may be re-watching old films, but, if you are like me, you are going back to your collection of comics, and reading it all over again. The comics have such a dynamic narrative, and the artwork is unbelievable you will want to take a picture for a cool wallpaper. The movies are great, but we must not forget where they are derived, and it is always important to look at the source.

There is a chronological order that Marvel comics has on their website (link), however I have made my own chronology to add more shock, awe, and fluidity. I have nothing but admiration for the series, and one big difference in the official order is 98 comics long, while my order is 104 comics long. It may seem like a lot to read, but one can actually finish this in a weekend if they made time for leisurely reading. And remember, they are comics. Not every page is filled with loads of paragraphs. One of the beautiful aspects of comics is, at times, the pictures tell the story, even without any words. Another great aspect, there are a ton more characters to fall in love with.

Here is my personalized chronological order,

1. The New Avengers Illuminati

I hope you enjoy the comics, and the movie adaptation. I remember being in sixth and seventh grade when I read this event for the first time, and now I am 22 going to watch it in 3-D. With years ahead of us filled with superhero films, let us not forget where they are derived. Let us give admiration to both mediums, and the ones who work laboriously to bring us these great works.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
