He was raised in video stores, rented everything he could get his hands on, and lived in movie theaters where he watched whatever was new that given week. He’s also an avid reader, splitting time between comic books, murder mystery novels , and biographies written by rock stars. He plays more Fortnite than he’d care to admit. And he thinks the MCU is cinema’s greatest achievement.For two decades, Sean covered everything, from the Oscars and Toronto International Film Festival, to SXSW and San Diego Comic-Con. His passion, however, fell to anything involving comics. Sean’s first movie was Richard Lester’s Superman II. It ignited a spark. From there, Sean was front and center for every comic-book adaptation that Hollywood dared to stage. He meticulously covered the Golden Age of Superhero Movies – when Marvel and DC were laying the foundation for what’s to come – and he plans to bring the best possible coverage to CBR regarding the MCU, the DCU, The Boys, Invincible, and every comic book property in between. If it’s hero related, Sean is on it.Hollywood has been producing comic book adaptations for decades, but there's only one correct choice when selecting the greatest of all time.
