Justice League battles in Two Earths clip
We’re coming up to DC’s release of the Justice League: Crisis On Two Earths straight to DVD/Blu-ray movie. In it the Justice League finds itself coping with a parallel world, with heroes and villains with similar powers but yet everything isn’t the same. The plot gets going when a good Lex Luthor turns up from […]
Darabont’s Walking Dead
Lots of geeky sites happy with today’s news that Frank Darabont has been giving the go-ahead to film a pilot episode of The Walking Dead. The Walking Dead is a well respected comic from Robert Kirkman. It’s one of those smart zombie page-turns that focuses on the human challenges rather than the pesky not-dead-enough bodies. […]
Sexy Spartacus: Blood and Sand comics and trailers have Starz on a roll
The media company Starz are having a good run up to Spartacus: Blood and Sand. I’m not even in the US, am not even sure I’m going to get to see the show and I’m already getting excited about it. Everyone is describing the show as a mashup of Snyder’s 300 and the HBO Rome […]
Ultimate X revealed as a hunter
Marvel have shown us the fourth and final shadow on the Ultimate X cover. That’s all of them now. I don’t have Paul’s brains to pick as to who these re-tooled heroes may be so I’m going to take the suggestions from ComicVine’s G-Man instead. Looks like Ultimate Liz Allen to me. Not much of […]
After the Blackest Night comes the Brightest Day
DC have pulled the curtain aside to let us see what comes after Blackest Night. In a “live blog” interview between The Source’s Alex Segura and Dan DiDio DC reveal that Brightest Day launches in April as a 26-issue biweekly. The interview is on the short side but confirms that Geoff Johns and Peter Tomasi […]
Who the heck is Ultimate-X?
With a new image from Marvel doing the rounds, we find ourselves wondering who Ultimate-X is. Those claws look awfully Wolverine. As usual, ComicVine does a good job of summing up thoughts; “Could this be Ultimate Daken? Has Wolverine somehow been transformed into a teenager? Could this perhaps be Ultimate X-23?”
Graphic.ly’s CEO, Micah Baldwin, talks about the awesome application
What a whirlwind! At the start of the week, Geek Native had news of Graphic.ly’s $1m funding and supersizing waiting list of comic fans. Just yesterday Mashable then had news that Microsoft’s Steve Ballmer, yes – that Steve Ballmer, had raved about how awesome Graphic.ly was on stage at CES 2010. Yes – that CES […]
DC Comics not actually a nemesis to, er ‘Nemesis’
Yesterday, it was reported that Marvel Comic’s forthcoming ‘Nemesis’ series by ‘Kick-Ass’/’Wanted’ creator Mark Millar was being met with legal action by DC Comics. Apparently not according to comments Millar made over at Comic Book Resources: “There is no issue at all here. Someone simply saw that the image we had planned for the first cover […]
Iron Man stars in Cowboys & Aliens movie
The guys over at Whiskey Media’s ComicVine have noted that Cowboys & Aliens will start filming in July. It’ll be directed by Iron Man’s Jon Favreau. This is kinda cool because it had been rumoured for a while that the Iron Man duo of Robert Downey Jr and Iron Man would do another comic movie […]
