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.

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 […]
