Winter may be coming, but the future is pretty bright for nerds these days.

The hype is bursting at Hulk's purple pants seams as Marvel and Game of Thrones fans wait for the return of their beloved vices. Dark nights are undoubtedly coming to Westeros this season, so the houses could take a tip from the Avengers on fighting for survival. (Though we're pretty sure even Ultron is not safe from the cold-blooded hands of George R.R. Martin.)

Who's more sinister, Loki or Cersei? It's uncertain, but one thing's for sure: playing the game of thrones would be a lot more interesting with superpowers.

Also, the Raven should seriously consider an eyepatch.
