Today marks the first official day of summer, (though if you live anywhere like us you’ve already been experiencing summer levels of heat for a few weeks now) and thoughts start to turn to vacations and relaxing instead of work or school. And while I’m not in school anymore and summer vacations seem like nothing […]
Welcome to Five by Friday! Sunday is Father’s Day here in the states and in honor of that, today’s Five By Friday is all about our favorite fictional Fathers! There’s a lot of them, but often, they’re not actually all that great of dads. Fiction is filled with parents who leave their children to their own devices, […]
Welcome to the third installation of The Sorting Hat! This series was created because we enjoy imagining what would happen if characters from other fandoms were starting their first year at Hogwarts and needed to be sorted into the four houses. Sometimes it’s easy to sort someone, and other times (as you’ll see below) it takes compromise and campaigning. […]
Welcome to Five by Friday! This week we’re talking about our favorite fantasy and science fiction worlds that we’d actually like to live in. Sure, there are tons of places out there that are exciting to read about, but when it comes down to it you wouldn’t want to set foot anywhere near there. I mean […]
Welcome to Five by Friday! In honor of Harry Potter’s 35th birthday, this week’s topic is our favorite Harry Potter characters!

But even with all the time spent thinking though this universe, it was still incredibly challenging to narrow it down to our top five favorite […]
Welcome to the first installment of The Sorting Hat! In this series of articles we’re taking characters from our favorite fandoms and sorting them into Hogwarts Houses. This is a thing we do all the time among friends, and we’ve decided to go ahead and make it a recurring thing here at Avenging Force. There’s something […]
Disclaimer: This post is overflowing with spoilers for Harry Potter, Arrow, Star Wars EU, The West Wing, Firefly, The Hunger Games, and Battlestar Galactica. Proceed at your own risk. Death is a part of life. Everyone who lives, has to eventually die. Which, when you think about it, really kind of sucks. Sure, it makes […]
Welcome to Five by Friday! This week’s topic is sidekicks! Too often, people focus on the heroes and the villains, but what about the people that help the hero win the day? Whether the hero only has one person to help them out or a whole team of them, we’re focusing on those support systems today. Join […]
Here at Avenging Force we’re getting pretty tired of the same-old, same-old. ‘Shipper wars and “Team [Couple]!” cries are getting pretty played out, and we’re well past tired of great stories and characters getting watered down to who they might kiss at the end of the story. We’re here for great friendships–good, solid, thought-out friendships, […]
