Joe Casey (possibly pictured to the left…but probably not)is a comic book genius.
He’s directly responsible for some of the best stuff to come out of comics in the last ten years, with titles like Automatic Kafka, the only good version of Wildcats, the cosmic epic GØDLAND, and more superhero comics from the “Big 2″ than […]

Warner Bros. has released a hi-rez image of Bale in costume from the upcoming bat-sequel “The Dark Knight”. This is the same image that appeared in Entertainment Weekly last week, but sans text, an in a much higher resolution.
Let the fan-wallpapers begin!!!

Entertainment Weekly had an exclusive look at the new Batsuit for “The Dark Knight”. This costume is much improved over the previous ones in several ways, although I still don’t really understand why they can’t do Bats like he looks in the comics and in TAS.
Still, I dig it. What do […]

Well, for the two of you that thought Steve Rogers might actually stay dead, you can officially slap your forehead. Marvel has announced that their next independently produced film franchise after Iron Man is going to be Captain America.
Currently the film is slated to be both a period piece set in WWII […]

It is amazingly satisfying to finally see Richard Ryder, the man they call Nova, treated with respect. If only they could do the same thing with U.S. Agent (Marvel - call me - I’ve got the pitch of a lifetime for him)…
Anyway….
Nova #3 closes out the first storyarc, which gets Rich caught up on […]

Holy Crap.
I had no idea what I was getting into when I picked up this .99 cent #0 issue of “Black Summer” a new mini-series from the potentially criminally insane mind of Warren Ellis.
I’m not going to tell you much about it. I’m just going to tell you to go buy it. […]

I know I said I wasn’t going to pick this up…but I did say that my devotion to the character U.S. Agent (Marvel - I’m tellin’ ya - I’ve got the pitch of a lifetime for that guy - call me :) ) was a sickness…so I couldn’t help but check it out.
I’m glad to […]

850 issues.
That’s a lot.
I haven’t actually picked up Action Comics in a while, but something about this issue grabbed my interest as I walked by it on the shelf. Was the cover? The issue number? I’m not sure, but regardless, I picked it up, and was very surprised by what I read.
At […]

Silver Surfer Requiem is to be the final offering from Marvel’s “Marvel Knights” line…the line up that originally spun Marvel into it’s current form, and set Joe Quesada atop the house that Stan and Jack built.
So you could say that the Marvel Knights line is dying…
How fitting is it, then, that the subject of death […]

Well, they can’t all be Grade A, and this week isn’t. The Countdown story continues with a few new and interesting pieces to the puzzle, but also a few glaringly bad plot points, and the worst dialogue of the series thus far.
One plot point that I can’t wrap my head around is the fact […]

Batman On Film reports that Batman will be cruising around the streets of Gotham on a new Bat-cycle in the upcoming film, that may actually eject from the Batmobile itself.
No word on if Heath Ledger will be asking him where he gets those wonderful toys….
There is a new Transformers spot online that shows […]

Mtv Movie Blog is on the ball today. Blogger Shawn Adler has taken a few pieces of information from around the web, a quote from Jeff Bridges and all but confirmed the villain of the film to be Iron Monger.
Now, at Comi-Con last year Mandarin was was confirmed to be the villain in the […]

So what happens when Spider-Man 3 is huge hit, Marvel has a new Mary Jane Statue come out designed by Adam Hughes, and it’s a slow news day for mainstream media?
You guessed it! People start getting bent out of shape over NOTHING!
Take a look at the statue to the left. It’s an OBVIOUS […]

Well we’re three weeks into Countdown and I have to say, I’m officially hooked. In addition to the engaging main story this week, we are also give “The History of the Multiverse - Part One” which is helping to flesh out the history of all of this for those that may not have been […]
