I remember watching Shaft the movie many years back, which starred the Samuel L. Jackson. When I read the Ultimates comics, I recalled thinking "Hey haven't I seen this look before somewhere...".

It's been sometime since I've posted an entry, been busy with some other stuff...like watching How I Met Your Mother (HIMYM)!

Okay I have a confession to make, as much I watch HIMYM for its hilarious storylines, I also watch it for the lovely Cobie Smulders, who plays Robin Scherbatsky!

In the show, Robin is a tough, no-nonsense, gun-toting gal, who can definitely hold her own in a fight.

As you may know by now, Cobie will also be playing Maria Hill in The Avengers, which is coming out next year.
