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.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

SUNY Binghamton

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
