Awwwww… Jim Lee finished the most recent issue of Justice League #5 just before his new child was born, and while his wife Carla was rather heavily pregnant. He’s written that the new arrival held out until he’d finished his deadline, which was appreciated by all, I’m sure. But what tribute could Jim Lee make…
We know from the publicity that DC Vertigo are publishing graphic novel adaptaions of the Millenium Trilogy, with Denise Mina and Leonardo Manco adapting the first book The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo into two parts. And in April they’ll be publishing a free teaser of the first graphic novel. But Bleeding Cool (alone it…
Recently, Bleeding Cool ran an article on how Marvel were looking to get certain creators out of their exclusive deals with Marvel, in an attempt to save money. And how Ariel Olivetti may have been a good example, locked into a two year excluisve deal with Marvel but suddenly appearing on the rejigged Men Of…
Toy News International ran these scans of images of DC toys and statues for 2012. But did they miss the headline story? Or is it a case of one side of DC not knowing what the other is doing? Because in May 2012, as part of the New 52 Cover Girls Of The DC Universe,…
Finder by Carla Speed McNeill is one of my all time favourite comic book series, telling a far-future depopulated Earth story about “aboriginals” living between the cities. And Carla is one of the greatest modern comic book artists, occupying a space somewhere between Alan Davis and Jeff Smith, Terry Wiley and Philip Bond, Dave Sim…
See Greg knows what to do. Hours into reporting from the floor of C2E2, he’s sucking up to the site’s owners. He’ll go far. The Avatar Press booth is already one of the hot spots at C2E2, thanks in no small part to their Crossed mask promotion. “I’m shocked at how popular the masks are,”…
The Mondo Marvel panel at C2E2 has just announced a bunch of cool stuff. Only a few of which were previously announced by Bleeding Cool today or yesterday. We’re slacking.

Jim Lee has just tweeted that “Any peeps here at C2E2? I’ve done a sketch&am leaving it here somewhere for someone to find it :)” Are you at C2E2? Do you recognise this location? Then “This is the hidden sketch. Hint. Its under tablecloth of a table from previous pic” Run. Run. Run. Run…
Last week’s issue of Buffy The Vampire Slayer Season #8, Them Fucking (Plus The True History Of The Universe) featured an issue long sex scene between Buffy and Angel. Flying. At one point, into space. While their crew explore the history of magic and stuff. Like this. Which reminded me terribly of another comic, Promethea…

This is a new image that Boom! Publishing have been circling. The phrase translates to “Cthulhu Waits” or “Cthulhu Waits Dreaming” in the HP Lovecraft mythology of the Great Old Ones. Will Boom! be announcing something Cthulhu-related at C2E2?
Today, Avatar Press launched the new Crossed series by David Lapham and Javier Barreno, based on the original Crossed by Garth Ennis and Jacen Burrows. just collected in trade and hardcover. The first issue will ship to stores next week, and has a cover by original co-creator Jacen Burrows. Most people forget David Lapham’s very-darker…

Mike De Luca, Jason Netter, Ken F. Levin and Dana Brunetti are on board…
Bleeding Cool yesterday reported on the upcoming rumoured X-Men Versus Vampires event which caused Mark Millar to get all in a tizzy, along with evidence that might support its existence. Well, it seems that Marvel are to announce a new oneshot at C2E2 which, it’s claimed, may kick all this off. The Death Of Dracula….

Below you’ll see a photo of a poster, hanging on a bus shelter. It was taken by Little Bleeder Ian, who wondered: I don’t know if this is genuine viral marketing or just a bunch of students. You can see a #believeinsherlock hashtag on the bottom right hand corner. I went to Twitter and searched…
The above is a commission by Frank Miller, recreating the splash page from The Dark Knight, below, for one Felix Lu. Such a detailed commission from Miller, it would be quite a rarity these days and rather expensive. Albeit not quite as expensive as buying the original art, recently selling for almost half a million…
Here’s an orderly and dependable plot blurb for The Amazing Spider-Man, as issued by Sony and piling up across the net (and in my inbox) like wildfire right now. There may not be any bombshells in here, but the strands come together pretty clearly. You know – like a web. The Amazing Spider-Man is the…
The last time I remember reading a Legend Of Zelda comic was back in the nineties, from Valiant Comics before they decided to move into superheroes. There’s were also a few manga books tied into specific game releases but no US licenced comics for quite some time. This could change if Joe Madueira gets his…
He’s done gangbusters for DC Comics, taking C-list character Animal Man, whose return to the DC Universe from DC Vertigo had been lacklustre at best, and turned him into a surprise critical and commercial hit as part of the DC New 52. So it’s only natural that DC might tap him for any other bright…
I would assume that the success of The Lord of the Rings and the huge interest in The Hobbit, not to mention the extraordinary, eight-film success of the Harry Potter series, would encourage Warner Bros. to look seriously into all of their similar options, but the studio has not to move ahead with a long-developing…
