#MyFandom is a biweekly Twitter Q&A highlighting Wikia communities and pop culture influencers who love to geek out hard over their favorite fandoms. The latest program showcased our friends at Marvel Database.

Is there anything Marvel can’t do right now? The entertainment giant seems unstoppable, and the anticipation for their upcoming projects are through the roof. From Netflix’s Luke Cage to this November’s Doctor Strange starring Benedict Cumberbatch, there’s a lot to get excited about regarding Marvel’s future.

That’s why we cornered a mega-fan at Marvel Database to get his take on things to come. With over 3 million global visitors and 11 million page views in just the last month, the Marvel Database has proven to be a resourceful stomping ground for any and all Marvel fans.
