Recently I got my hands on IGN's Avengers: Endgame poster: I can identify majority of them but not all. Who are all these 13 superheroes?

Has any story, movie, TV show depicted a spaceport on either of Mars' moons, rather than a spaceport on the surface of Mars?

I remember, in kindergarten to first grade (late 2000s or early 2010s), reading a comic book from the public library. I think it featured some sort of gray-haired mad scientist who somehow taught scientific things. It might have not been educational, but I think it was. It was a translated manga;...

An alien ship visits earth every few years and people try to find their way to the centre. There are groups or teams that go in, people watch as they try to get in.

I'm not a hardcore fan so please don't hit me if I'm wrong. But I think in Stargate the earth never knew that Stargates and Aliens existed. So I get this is the idea behind the show that there is a secret operation that most humans don't know about. And at the beginning it makes some sense at le...

hi this is more of a passing thought then a question but I was thinking and playing the Wii video game of "harry Potter and the half blood prince" and I know its quite an old game but I'd like to say that I have high regards to the details put in the corridors, the castle, everywhere and the many...

I'm trying to find a book about a boy who wears glasses, is a weakling and who was constantly bullied at school. During one of the bullying episodes, he was shoved into his locker and locked up (or maybe he chose to lock himself up to escape his tormentors. sorry I kinda forgot). Then he passed o...

Some time ago I read a short story about humans' inability to understand alien culture/society. The premise was that we had a colony of sorts on an alien planet, that was comprised of a team of workers. These workers were killed, and someone was sent to the planet to understand why these worker...

At the end (post-credit) of Avengers: Age of Ultron, Thanos is seen taking the Infinity Gauntlet. But in Avengers: Infinity War, judging from Eitri's words, his attack on Nidavellir, where he obtained the gauntlet, took place in a small time interval just before the events of Infinity War. There...

In the DCTVU crossover "Elseworlds" we see Lois Lane wielding a large hammer during the fight with the evil Superman/Deegan. The hammer is first seen at the entrance to the Fortress of Solitude on Earth-38... Given the number of references and easter eggs in the multi-episode crossover, I'm...

Is there something in the Marvel comics after Avengers beat Thanos, or directors announcement that Avengers will gather again? To me, it seems no, because making up a villain stronger than Thanos would be above any fantasy.

I watched this movie around 2009/10 and movie might be released between 2002/2009 I only remember only portion of it. The movie was dark with setup in western village. The protagonist was hunting alien like creature. The thing I remember the most was that the nest in which they went to hunt was a...

In Captain America the First Avenger just after Steve is turned into a super soldier, Dr. Erskine is shot by a Nazi official. But Schmidt tells Dr. Zolla that if they can stop the super soldier operation they are sure to win the war. So why didn't he shoot Erskine before Steve was turned into a ...

I am a total ignorant about science and I was wondering how I can make this piece of technology work. It's a nano-filter placed inside the nose that can transform CO2 in O2. What happens to C when the molecule is split? How is it released? Can it harm the person wearing the filter? The novel is...

Him and Thalia never got to know each other Because of his breakup with Piper, a born leader like him had become a recluse. He who ...

This is a what-if scenario question. While joining Voldemort's side why didn't Snape thought that as a Death Eater he might have to face Lily (an Order of the Phoenix member) in a battle someday ? how would Snape handle such a kind of situation where he had to fight Lily ?

There are a number of instances of marvel and DC characters being similar, if not copies of each other. As far as I am aware though these always have different creators, who may have been inspired by but where not directly involved in the opposite version. Are there any cases of a writer creati...

On the back of a question I asked about writers creating identical characters has there ever been an instance of a writer creating a plot or storyline for one comic book and then reusing it in another. I am specifically looking for writers who have worked for multiple publishers, eg marvel, DC, v...

Sigmund Freud has stated, Unsatisfied wishes are the driving power behind fantasies because every separate fantasy simply contains fulfillment of a wish, and unproves an unsatisfactory reality. Living in a fantasy world to escape reality could birth at least one condition called a Fant...

At the start of Star Trek we see the Kelvin destroyed with its survivors in escape pods and shuttles. The next scene we see a young Kirk on earth. Has it ever been detailed how long the survivors sat in space for, did they land on a planet, make there way home themselves or get rescued?

This is a modern movie and rich people can buy this egg with a personal assistant. It's an actual person in it (or a person's mind). I believe it can even operate a toaster. I believe later in the movie, a person (or their mind) can be transferred to such an egg. As a punishment, they increase t...

This question got me to thinking about how there have been many actors who have had several roles across the Star Trek franchise. It seems that once an actor demonstrates good performance in that franchise, it is very likely (at least more so than in other franchises, or it might just be my imagi...
