We saw the new Tron variants by Marvel. Artwork that had many comic book purists cringing their teeth in agony. Although some of the titles were on point and pretty damn cool the whole buzz about the titles was more focused on a fear of Disney influence on Marvel.

Awesome night started off with inspirational speeches and the ring ceremony. What a way to start the season.

Much respect to Celtics for putting up one hell of a fight, but in the end there can be only one champion! This year it’s LA Lakers who won their first back to back championship since their last run in 2002.
